We are very happy with our trip, we were treated wonderfully and milfour sound really worth it, the plane ride over the snowy Alps and the fjord are amazing, I would do it again 100% the waterfalls and rainbows are really an experience worth living !!!! My congratulations to the whole team and especially Cúrc our pilot super friendly and very good level of service.

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.

The Milford Sound boat excursion was awesome and I'd highly recommend it. However I would recommend bypassing Headout and booking directly with Pure Milford. Headout gave us the incorrect information saying that they were collecting us from our accommodation, which they did not do. We were left waiting for a ride that never arrived. This could have ended badly if we hadn't been able to walk to the bus stop in town. Headout you need to give people the right information!

Such a lovely cruise with beautiful scenery and awesome commentary. The meal at Walter Peak Farm was outstanding and the cattle dog and sheep show was very entertaining. Highly recommended:)
