Experience the best of New Zealand’s natural wonders with this Milford Sound Fly Cruise Fly adventure. Soar over glaciers, cruise past waterfalls, and fly home with unforgettable memories.

The experience

Milford Sound Fly Cruise Fly is Glenorchy Air’s most popular year-round adventure, offering an unforgettable way to experience New Zealand’s stunning landscapes from every angle.

Fly:
Start your Milford Sound Fly Cruise Fly adventure with a breathtaking scenic flight from Queenstown. Soar above the glacier-fed rivers of the Dart-Rees Valley and the UNESCO-listed Mt. Aspiring National Park. Witness the raw beauty of Fiordland’s snow-covered mountains, the Olivine Ice Plateau, Earnslaw Burn Glacier, and the iconic Mt. Tutoko Glacier. The flight offers panoramic views of the Tasman Sea, the West Coast, and untouched wilderness only visible from the sky.

Cruise:
Land at the charming Milford Sound Airport, directly beneath the towering Mitre Peak. Board your cruise vessel and glide through the world-famous Milford Sound fjord, past sheer rock faces, cascading waterfalls like Stirling Falls, and rich native rainforests. A portion of your cruise ticket helps support New Zealand’s Department of Conservation in preserving this pristine wilderness.

Fly (Return):
After your cruise, continue your Milford Sound Fly Cruise Fly experience with a scenic return flight. This return leg takes a different route, offering equally spectacular views of Fiordland’s landscapes, alpine lakes, and glacier-clad peaks.
