Soar and Sail Through Fiordland’s Most Iconic Landscapes
Flying from Queenstown to Milford Sound is more than just a scenic trip. It’s a seamless journey that combines two unforgettable perspectives. Aboard a fixed-wing plane or helicopter, the first leg of your Fly Cruise Fly tour lifts you above the Southern Alps, revealing sweeping views of alpine peaks, forested valleys, and remote lakes before descending into the heart of Fiordland.
Upon landing, your cruise across Milford Sound begins. Glide past sheer cliffs, powerful waterfalls, and mirror-like waters as Mitre Peak towers overhead. The cruise offers a close encounter with Fiordland’s raw beauty, including potential sightings of seals, dolphins, and even penguins.
The Return Flight: A Final Look at Untouched Wilderness
After the cruise, your return flight to Queenstown offers a new vantage point over the region’s dramatic terrain. The aerial journey home is just as captivating, giving you a final glimpse of Fiordland’s untouched expanse and the winding rivers and glacial valleys that define it.
This round-trip experience captures the spirit of the South Island in a single day. With air and sea travel combined, it’s a hassle-free way to experience one of New Zealand’s most spectacular destinations without retracing your steps.
