This was the top of our stay in New Zealand, great experience! Our pilot, Kriti provided excellent service, she was very nice, she gave information on things we could see from the plane. Milford Sound was amazing, very beautiful, we were also lucky with the weather!

The plane was nice, but definitely a luxury. The cruise is a must. The service itself was very nice and seemed worth it. It is pricey but it saves spending an entire day driving

Wow. This was an incredible way to end our visit to New Zealand. We were originally thinking about doing an overnight cruise in Milford Sound but for similar cost we opted for this trip instead. Flying, instead of spending hours driving from Queenstown was no-brainer. We were expecting breathtaking scenery during the flight and we were not disappointed. We have taken sightseeing flights through Hawaii and Alaska and this is just as good if not better. Jason, our pilot from TrueSouth, was so confident and competent and made the flight so comfortable and enjoyable. Honestly, the flight was a better experience than the cruise itself. Milford sound is must-do while in New Zealand. However, if your budget allows, fly over the South Island!

Still trying to process the experience we had with True South! We were visiting Queenstown and so many friends urged us to try and fit in a trip to Milford Sounds. Thing is, we only had a few days and didn't want to spend up to 12 hours getting there and back, cruise included. So, using Google, we came across the fly cruise fly option and were pleasantly surprised at how doable it was in terms of time and price. Was this a scam, lol? We were able to secure our spot a week in advance and payment did not go through my credit card until the day before the trip. Definitely no scam! The communication from True South was excellent and the staff are welcoming and friendly. Jason, our pilot was awesome, giving us amazing photo opportunities in the air. We saw sights from the air that we would have obviously missed if we had driven. The cruise itself? Difficult to articulate the incredible beauty of the Milford Sounds; the only thing to say is just get there! It has to be seen. It's an experience that will stay with me for all the right reasons. Cannot thank True South enough for this experience of a lifetime.
