    It was a beautiful day in Milford Sound. Nice & Sunny!😎. Glad we did this on our trip. Great Spot! The only concern was that we easily changed our reservation for the 2:45 from the 9:30, but got super confused when one of your agents said that it wasn’t possible and that we will stick with the 9:30. One of the members of our party wasn’t able to make the 9:30 , so out of uncertainty on whether or not we had a spot on the 2:45, they didn’t make it the trip. We only had 5 people attend rather than 6 total. We understand there is a 24 hour notice policy, but the lack of clear communication on what time we had locked in caused confusion. We’d like to be refunded for one of the tickets because of the lack of alignment with the time of the cruise if possible. Thank you!

    Milford Sound really is the 8th wonder of the world. There really is nothing quite like it - it’s beautiful and shouldn’t be missed.

    Very well and professionally done. Bus and boat arrangements were right on time. Bus ride was comfortable. Tour staff vety friendly. Lunch was good. The only suggestion is to have more bus rest stops for older passengers..

    This cruise is a weather dependent activity. Bring appropriate clothing layers. Beautiful scenery and a must do for those who love the outdoors.

    The views of Milford Sound were beautiful — although it was a dry, sunny day, so some of the waterfalls were a bit sad. Staff on board were great providing lots of information as we sailed along on the history of the Sound, geology and the flora and fauna. Ship was really nice and comfortable with nice clean toilets and a small bar/cafe with complimentary hot drinks. It's big enough for around 50 but there were only around 10–15 of us on the afternoon cruise, so we could all move around with ease and get good views at the front of the ship. Only negative is that the cruise seemed to be quite a bit shorter than advertised, and I'm not sure if it's worth paying extra for an "extended cruise" that's effectively offering the same as any other cruise.

  • Amazing guide and superb people.

    The coach driver and Tour guide were extremely knowledgeable. Made the long day fun and enjoyable. (Nick and Peter). Told us all about the history, the trip and things to look out for. Making some great stops to see as much as possible. The cruise was fantastic, getting as close as possible to everything we could see!

    Wow, what a fantastic cruise we had. Charlotte was so informative and engaging, she was an amazing guide on and Brad was a great skipper, what a team. We highly recommend this tour if you’re going to Milford Sound. Had a nice picnic lunch as well. An amazingly stunning place!
