Set off on an unforgettable cruise through the dramatic landscapes of Milford Sound, one of New Zealand’s most iconic natural wonders. Your journey begins beneath the towering Mitre Peak and the lush Sinbad Gully—home to rare native wildlife including the extraordinary Kakapo. As you glide through the fjord, you’ll pass seal colonies, hidden coves, and ancient cliffs carved over millions of years. The boat takes you close enough to the Fairy Falls to feel the mist on your face, making the scenery even more immersive.
As the cruise reaches the Tasman Sea, you’ll spot the narrow entrance to Milford Sound—famously missed twice by Captain Cook. On the return, prepare for the breathtaking sight of Stirling Falls, where you can experience the famous “glacial facial” beneath one of the fjord’s most powerful waterfalls. Along the way, knowledgeable nature guides bring the landscape to life with captivating stories, wildlife facts, and photography assistance. During November, you may even spot the elusive Fiordland Crested Penguin.
