From Queenstown – Small Boutique Tour with Picnic Lunch Included

Embark on a full-day journey from Queenstown to Milford Sound aboard a comfortable 16-seater Mercedes Sprinter, operated by our trusted partners, Cheeky Kiwi. With hotel pickups from 7 a.m. onward, the tour follows the scenic shores of Lake Wakatipu, making its first stop at the lake’s northern end for breathtaking views back toward Queenstown. After a series of scenic pauses, you’ll reach Te Anau for a 30-minute break at the Alpine Center Café, where you can purchase refreshments and meet the friendly alpacas outside.

Continuing along the famous Milford Road, your guide will stop often for short walks, forest trails, and photo opportunities at locations larger coaches cannot access. Upon arrival at Milford Sound, you’ll board a Boutique Small Boat Cruise, enjoying your packed lunch with complimentary coffee, tea, and biscuits as you glide beneath towering cliffs and cascading waterfalls. The small vessel allows close encounters with wildlife such as fur seals, dolphins, and sometimes the Fiordland Crested Penguin. After this unforgettable fiord experience, relax on the drive back to Queenstown, arriving around 8 p.m.
