The scenery was simply spectacular. We were on a girls trip and right from get go to whole experience was a very slick operation. The boat was a perfect way to travel, a glimpse of history and they sold the best "hot toddies". 🙂 Everything felt easy, the timing of everything was perfect. We had the gourmet BBQ lunch, which was simply awesome, endless, delicious food. Yum! The station stock show was informative, short and sweet. Nothing felt rushed. I think it is simply a must do. It was so breathtaking, we all took a lot of photos.

Fantastic cruise! The staff were friendly, the scenery was breathtaking, and the food was great. We had an amazing time and would definitely do it again. Highly recommended!

This was a return visit for us after our honeymoon 15 years ago. The crew of the boat through to the tour guides were all friendly and knowledgeable. And the tour through the caves was a fun experience. We enjoyed it just as much a second time! There are stairs along the sturdy walkways, but it's an easy walk for most .. only two low spots that require ducking quite low, but nothing too arduous.

Loved the captain's commentary! Gave me a few good chuckles and provided lots of interesting facts about the area. Can only recommend it :)

The scenery was absolutely spectacular, loved the excellent commentary, and got sprayed by the waterfall, so I look 10 years younger! :) Free hot chocolate also hit the spot!

There are lots and lots of boats running every 10 minutes practically. They all do the same thing, same route as far I could tell. There are massive boats that hold 300+ people. This company have a small boat, we at times got really close to the cliffs for a close up of the seals or water fall. I don't think the bigger boats can do that. We were not over crowded and tea and coffee, hot chocolate was provided. We went on a dry sunny day and it was cold, but we were on the top level on the outside of the boat. The inside was warm. The best view on the boat is the front but you do get wet, so wear lots of layers and a raincoat and your set. The only thing I would have wanted more is rain, apparently if you go on a rainy day it's stunning.

The most breathtaking views ever! This is an amazing experience and it should not be missed. The cruise trip was such an unique experience and definitely one which though touristy, is NOT overrated. Cruise was on time, they served hot coffee, hot chocolate, tea on the cruise in a 2 hour ride. Captain's narration about Milford Sound was exceptional.

This was the highlight of our trip!! Spending the day looking at scenery that doesn't even look real!! This is a do not miss! I recommend doing the smaller vessels over the bigger boats. The only thing to be aware of is the company Head Out who was in control of getting our bus to location was not on top of things. They told us to be at the bus stop at 6:30-6:45 and it was not the right time. It wasn't supposed to be till 7:30. They also told us there would only be 15 people on the boat and it really had about 50. The driver (Neville) from Altitude was GREAT! Very informative!! The boat Miter was also great! So just don't use head out to book this trip. Be sure and do it though! Worth the long drive!!!
