Its Magical Experience. We had an opportunity to have 2 different weather conditions (Rainy and Sunny) at same time so its one of the most rare scenarios. Nevertheless its beautiful whenever you visit. A must place to visit if travelling to South Island -NZ.

The cruise was amazing! Great views of the Mountains in the fjiords and waterfalls. Interesting description/explanation by the boat guide. We also got to see some seals:)

Absolutely amazing! Breathtaking views! You have to park a short walk from the check-in area and where the boat departs - about a 5 minute leisurely walk. Check-in was easy and the staff were friendly. The boat was small and personal which is exactly what we wanted. Free tea and coffee on board which was a lovely surprise. We were able to get up close to the seals and got a fresh spray from the waterfall (maybe more than a spray ahaha). All in all excellent value for money, spectacular views and have full gratitude the weather was on our side for our party of 9 to appreciate this.

The crew on every part of this journey was insightful, funny and knowing. We have seen a lot of wildlife and experienced the soothing sounds of this place. On good weather you will see relaxing seals and maybe a hunting albatross. Unfortunately we only have seen a fin of a dolphin, but as always in the wilderness: It's up to luck. I short: fully worth it!

One of the most amazing experiences!! My husband and I were on our honeymoon and wanted to do something adventurous but also not take up the full day. The fly cruise fly was the perfect ~4 hour excursion to see the milford sound, and all of queenstown. Our pilot Ryan was so kind and a fantastic pilot. The flight time was about 40 minutes there, then a scenic ~1.5 hour cruise through the Milford Sound followed by a 40 minute flight back. We had beautiful weather. Would recommend wearing a light coat and sunglasses :)
