This was an absolutely beautiful tour and our guide (Mae) was very knowledgeable and took us on a great tour all the way down to Milford. She was even able to change our reservation to include a flight back when it started to look like the weather was going to be favorable. She called and booked for us and everything. The tour of the sound was also absolutely amazing and we would recommend this tour to anyone thinking about visiting.
Really great experience....

Absolutely amazing. You’re also given the option to fly home if you would like for an additional price, but we didn’t do that. Milford sound is definitely worth it I also love how this tour only had around 11 people and we took a smaller cruise as well so we could get closer to waterfalls. Mae was an amazing guide!!
Fjordland National Park is beautiful!

This is a 13 hour day out of Queenstown so be prepared for a long ride. It was definitely worth it. Our driver Kristina stopped at several places before we arrived at the Milford Sound. The boat ride on the Milford Sound was gorgeous.
