It was a great experience. The commentator was really knowledgeable about the area and was at time very funny. He kept everyone engaged during the trip. We were lucky to strike a nice stunning weather, were able to see the rare penguin, and seals. Unfortunately we were not able to spot any dolphins on the day. Also the on board the catering had excellent choice of fast food, with free tea or coffee. I would suggest everyone who visits Milford sound, should take this trip.

Our cruise was fantastic! The boat was comfortable and provided excellent shelter from the rain, and the complimentary hot drinks were a lovely touch. A special mention to Morgan, one of the crew members, who went above and beyond to make our experience truly memorable. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking, making the entire cruise an unforgettable experience. We thoroughly enjoyed every moment and would highly recommend it!

Great day on the cruise , good English commentary of the sound formation and history of discovery. Seeing the penguin s leaving the nesting area and seals lazing in the sun in the rocks just made the day . The drive into Milford Sound is also spectacular in scenery with Keas at several of the stops keeping tourists entertained Would recommend to anyone interested in the great outdoors

Boat was nice, including some free hot drinks which were particularly appreciated. The voice over was very interesting and sounded like Sam Campbell. Staff were professional, no issues came up. The sights are incredible, obviously. Few places in the world compare, and they're also fjords. We even saw some fjordland penguins!

The boat captain and staff were very friendly and informative. We went up front during the cruise and the captain greeted us and talked to us for a while. The staff on the boat also came up to us to greet us and talked to us for a while. It was also a beautiful cruise. I would definitely do it again if we ever come back.

Exceptional cruise, with excellent commentary and history, service and crew was superb and exceeded expectations, although raining it only added to the fantastic views with a huge amount of waterfalls etc. We managed to see penguins and seals but no dolphins this time.
