Guided Tours in Milford Sound

Truly amazing is the only way to describe the cruise. It was breathtaking from start to finish, I was recommended by a friend to take the small boat because of less people on board so you could get close to the side and he was right. Our crew were fantastic, very knowledgeable and very friendly happy to have a chat and answer questions along the way. The price of it was worth every dollar and can highly recommend it to anyone who is looking at doing it. This has been the highlight of my trip to NZ so far. The drive into Milford Sound was also spectacular.

The smaller boat felt like more like an adventure than a cruise. The slow trip up the sound allowed us to take in the eye-popping scenery. Loved the taste of the Tasman Sea. Then the dolphins, seals and then"glacial facial" on the return trip were amazing. The on-board commentary was just enough and let the Sound speak for herself. A NZ highlight for us.

This was the highlight of our trip!! Spending the day looking at scenery that doesn't even look real!! This is a do not miss! I recommend doing the smaller vessels over the bigger boats. The only thing to be aware of is the company Head Out who was in control of getting our bus to location was not on top of things. They told us to be at the bus stop at 6:30-6:45 and it was not the right time. It wasn't supposed to be till 7:30. They also told us there would only be 15 people on the boat and it really had about 50. The driver (Neville) from Altitude was GREAT! Very informative!! The boat Miter was also great! So just don't use head out to book this trip. Be sure and do it though! Worth the long drive!!!
