Traveler reviews
Amazing tour with Danny and flight with Annabelle
Danny was our guide, and he was amazing! He took so many great photos of us, was knowledgeable, had a great music soundtrack for different parts of the trip, and gave us a lot of tips for our own photos. We forgot to mention we were vegan during booking, but he still made sure we had food by selecting out the chickpea salad and fruit from the lunchbox to make sure we still had something to eat. If you go, try to book with Danny! Highly recommend driving in and flying out. Our pilot, Annabelle, was great! She also took great photos of us and flew us around to many great photo locations. The whole experience was unreal and absolutely worth it. This should be on everyone's bucket list.
Wow, words cannot comprehend. Amazing!
Fantastic experience getting there with our driver (Zagdar?) really nice, knowledgeable and quick to help with any request, bloke deserves a raise. The Milford Sound cruise was spectacular, the only downside is the photos don't do the experience justice. No wonder it's known as the 8th wonder of the world! Just when I thought it couldn't get better, the flight back to Queenstown gave views of what I had just seen and so much more! I'd urge anyone to indulge in this must see and do bucket list item.
Don't cheat yourself, do it!
8th wonder of the world, just amazing. Hard to imagine a place this fantastic exists only a few hours away!.
Bus, Cruise, Fly... the BEST way to experience Milford Sound
Couldn't ask for a better day tour! Shu our tour driver was friendly, informative & gave us numerous photo stops along the way. The cruise in Milford Sound was spectacular - and we saw dolphins! Then flying back over the show capped mountains ended the day in a literal high!
Stunning Milford Sound
I was not looking forward to the long coach ride but it was actually very much worth it. We stopped at so many picturesque places for photo opportunities and also fed llamas and interacted with kea! The driver Dan was also very entertaining and had lots of great stories to share. The cruise itself was amazing but the flight back to Queenstown was the winner! We flew over snow covered mountains, glaciers and lakes- breathtaking. Can’t fault the trip- well worth doing if you’re in this part of NZ
