With a well-deserved reputation as one of the world’s most spectacular fiords, Milford Sound is located 50 kilometers north-west of Queenstown as the crow flies but 300 km by road. This 22-kilometer-long fiord is sited in a magnificent alpine landscape in the World Heritage Fiordland National Park. Your deluxe coach will feature a glass roof on most departures to take best advantage of the stunning alpine scenery - the coach also has amazing leg room!
Travel along the Milford Road featuring some of the most stunning scenery in the world - towering snow-capped mountains, magnificent rain forests, and spectacular waterfalls. Photo stops will be made along the way. Before descending into Milford Sound, travel through the Homer Tunnel - carved through the solid rock of a mountain.
When you reach Milford Sound, board a 1hr 45minute cruise taking you past Mitre Peak which rises from the ocean floor to 1 mile above sea level. View spectacular Bowen Waterfall, cascading down its huge rock face. Keep an eye out for the dolphins, seals, and penguins that live in this wonderful location. Return to Te Anau by coach, arriving early evening. Optional return flight available at extra cost, weather permitting – please see your driver for more details.
