Experience New Zealand at its best
If you are a nature history enthusiast looking to experience New Zealand’s landscapes from a different perspective, this premium Milford Sound tour might just be for you. Hop on a comfortable minibus from Queenstown and make your way to Lake Wakatipu where you get an unbeatable view of The Remarkables mountain. Then, you pass through the winding Devils Staircase road before stopping at the idyllic town of Lake Te Anau where you might spot some local wildlife.
Be one with nature
After Lake Te Anau, move on to Eglinton Valley to see the native beech trees lining the valley and the famous Mirror Lakes famous where you get to see the reflections of the Earl Mountains. You continue on the road to Lake Gunn, home to the South Island robins, tomtits and fantails before moving on Hollyford River, a river full of large boulders and rapids, which feeds into the river at Falls Creek falls. Then, you go deeper into Darren Mountains where you get to spot some colorful birds before winding down the hand-built Homer Tunnel, which leads to Milford Sound.
A cruise in New Zealand’s most famous fjord
Board a small boat at Milford Sound for a personal tour of Milford Sound. Catch a glimpse of New Zealand’s fur seals sitting on the rocks and waterfalls cascading from an ancient rainforest high in the mountains. This cruise is unbeatable. Get to see the clouds surrounding the triangular Mitre Peak before stopping at Pop's View Lookout where you get a bird’s eye view of the forest-cloaked Hollyford Valley. Then, head back to Queenstown on the minibus with many stops and breaks along the way.
