Long day with plenty of stops along the way. Our driver Colin was friendly and very knowledgeable and made the day interesting. A lot of beautiful scenery, rainbows and waterfalls. The boat trip was also exciting seeing dolphins, New Zealand Fur Seal, Penguin and spectacular waterfalls. The only downside was the packed lunch. The return flight was cancelled due to the weather and the refund was processed quickly.

From the moment Christine picked me up, it was an excellent experience. She's a great tour guide and a lovely human being. The drive was excellent, smooth, great stops with a little hike. When we got to Milford, it's where all the fun began. The experience was extraordinary. The place is insanely beautiful, and an overall: a 12/10 experience. No doubt. All the tour guides have been excellent too! Friendly, and knowledgeable. I am genuinely so happy and satisfied with an incredible day packed with so much fun and goodies! Worth every penny! Thank you again, and I cannot wait for the next adventure.

Our guide was Jason. He was upbeat and very knowledgeable. He very successfully conveyed his enthusiasm for everything between Queenstown and Milford Sound. It is a gorgeous trip to Milford Sound and absolutely not to be missed. It is a mind blowing and heart swelling journey.
