Premium Milford Sound Tour Highlights

This premium experience takes you from Queenstown through some of New Zealand’s most dramatic landscapes, including Lake Wakatipu, the Devil’s Staircase, and the iconic Mirror Lakes. The journey into Fiordland National Park offers stunning mountain scenery, crystal-clear lakes, and the chance to spot the rare alpine Kea. Passing through the Homer Tunnel, you’ll descend into the unforgettable Milford Sound, a natural wonder carved by glaciers.

At Milford Sound, your cruise aboard a smaller vessel allows for a more personal and less crowded experience. You’ll glide past towering cliffs, lush rainforests, and waterfalls plunging straight from the mountains into the fiord. Keep your camera ready as you may encounter fur seals lounging on rocks and native birdlife along the way.
