The Milford Sound Cruise was incredibly beautiful. Despite the bad weather, it was a very impressive experience. You could see an enormous number of waterfalls and it was well explained which mountain or waterfall you could see. The option to go on deck was also excellent despite the rain. I really enjoyed it and can only recommend it to anyone! My highlight was that they also got really close to the big waterfalls so that you could really see the spray from the bubbling water and really appreciate the size of the waterfall.

Loved the small boat and that we could get close to the waterfall. My husband and I were happy to be able to stand in front of the boat while the boat was turning. Best experience of our trip! Thanks so much and for the skipper for all the information given during the tour.

All went perfectly. The drivers were cool and drove safely. We got good informations about the region and the Doubtful Sound. The stay in quiet without machines were fantastic.

We enjoyed the whole experience starting with the lovely lady who helped me organise transport after I said I didn't need it. The driver Hygi was awesome dealing with an older vehicle and a non working headset. The people on the cruise were excellent and friendly and the cruise was awesome. The hardest part was that as I am a larger person, the seatbelt was extremely tight and very uncomfortable. Please remember that not everyone is tiny.

Very punctual tour. The driver was happy and knowledgeable with her commentary and a very good driver. Foggy day but we saw the waterfalls on the way back. Great day and recommend everyone do at least once in their lives.
