The flight was great! The sun was shining and the view was phenomenal. Unfortunately, there was a wind that did not allow us to land to take the cruise portion that we booked but we were refunded the same day for the difference.

Clear communication re pick up. Efficient organisation pre flight organisation. Pilot interaction excellent. His calm demeanour inspired complete confidence, along with constant communication. Close up views of mountains were simply breathraking. Skilled flying through Sound gave us clear views of the stunning scenery. Highly recommend this flight.

We thoroughly enjoyed the flight and cruise experience. The pilot (Paul) explained things well and so did the cruise crew. Very friendly staff. Everything went like clockwork.

We were unable to land due to crosswinds but were offered a extended flight over Milford and the Alps which was well worth it. Amazing scenery!

We had a fabulous day. Amazing views flying across to Milford Sound. The beauty of Milford sound is difficult to put into words. What a day. A must do when travelling to Queenstown.

Take in Fiordland’s dramatic scenery on a seamless day trip from Queenstown, featuring a scenic flight and small boat cruise on Milford Sound.

Getting started

Check in at the designated Queenstown departure point, where your team will confirm your booking and outline the day’s itinerary. After a short safety briefing, you’ll board your aircraft or coach, ready for your journey into Fiordland.

What to expect

Known as the “eighth wonder of the world,” Milford Sound is a glacier-carved fjord in Fiordland National Park, celebrated for its towering peaks and cascading waterfalls. This remote natural icon is a highlight of New Zealand’s South Island, drawing visitors for its pristine wilderness and unique wildlife.

Features

Scenic flight: Soar above the Southern Alps and Fiordland’s rugged valleys, with panoramic views of Lake Wakatipu, snow-capped peaks, and the Tasman Sea.

Small boat cruise: Glide along Milford Sound’s deep waters on a small vessel, allowing close-up views of sheer cliffs, Stirling and Bowen Falls, and possible sightings of fur seals or dolphins.

Live commentary: Enjoy insightful narration from your crew, sharing local stories and geological facts as you cruise the fjord.

Tea and coffee on board: Relax with complimentary refreshments while you take in the scenery from the boat’s viewing decks.

Small group experience: Travel in a more intimate setting, ensuring personal attention and ample space for photos and questions.

Coach transfer (if selected): Experience the scenic drive through Fiordland National Park, passing through lush rainforest and the Homer Tunnel before reaching the sound.

All taxes and fees are included, making your day trip smooth from start to finish.
