It a "must do" experience. Stan driver-guide was fantastic: lots of jokes, stops at the most beautiful points, lots of information, safe driving. The cruise was wonderful. We did see dolphins and a seal. We have been lucky to see beautiful rainbow after rain. The food on cruise was delicious and nicely presented. This experience is absolutely great value for money. Thanks Stan and thanks to the Company for organising everything for us and taking great care of us. I m thinking I must come back at least once again.
Amazing Tour

A lovely day and can’t miss experience! Junior was an amazing guide, and he (along with some gorgeous scenery) made the long ride go by so quickly. Milford Sound is incredible, the bus was comfortable, and overall, it was a phenomenal experience!
Exceptional service

The guide Stan was amazing. We learned so much about the history of the area while on the bus. Lunch on the boat was great. A bit if everything for everyone.
You’re the man, Stan

The day trip via Southern Discoveries was a delightful experience. The scenery was just incredible. It was a rainy day and by the time we got into mountains of Fjordlands National Park water was gushing off the mountainsides everywhere you looked. Incredible. The tour boat was good. Buffet lunch was excellent. Again, the views on the voyage through Milford Sound were simply amazing. Our bus was comfortable for the long drive with appropriate stops . Our driver, Stan, was engaging, colorful, and really made it a superb experience. Five stars. Two thumbs up.
