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 :)

Today we stepped back in time as we boarded the TSS Earnslaw, the soft music, aged woodwork and sound of the steam engine, we walked between the working engines and watched the engineer shovelling coal into the 4 fires/boilers as the cranks were turning the large shafts, photos and videos could never do this experience justice,the heat, the smell, the sounds, so so pleased we did this, then there's the views, Jurassic beauty largely untouched and majestic, Queenstown would have to be the gem of NZ. A must do.

We travelled on the Pure Milford catamaran. We absolutely enjoyed it, the scenery and the seals were a thrill to see. Of course, the staff members were amazing and friendly.

We particularly liked the fact that it was a great experience despite the rain. It's even particularly mystical when it rains. We got free coffee and saw dolphins and robes.
