Milford Sound Coach and Cruise is one of New Zealand’s must-do adventures, offering an unforgettable day journey through some of the country’s most spectacular scenery. Departing from Queenstown, this full-day tour combines the thrill of an epic road trip with the tranquility of a scenic fiord cruise.
Your Milford Sound Coach and Cruise adventure begins in the early morning with a convenient pickup from Queenstown. Travel in custom-designed coaches equipped with extra-large viewing windows, glass roofs, and angled seating for optimal sightseeing. The journey through the Southern Alps and Fiordland National Park is every bit as breathtaking as Milford Sound itself.
Enjoy engaging commentary from experienced guides who will share stories about the region’s geology, history, and native wildlife. With multiple stops along the way for photos, short walks, and fresh air, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to soak up the scenery and spot local wildlife, including cheeky kea birds and deer in the valleys.
Upon arrival in Milford Sound, step aboard either The Haven or The Sovereign for your scenic cruise. As you glide across the fiord’s calm waters, marvel at towering rock faces, cascading waterfalls, and the chance to spot dolphins, fur seals, and native birdlife. An expert nature guide provides insightful commentary on the area’s rich Māori legends, history, and natural wonders.
The Milford Sound Coach and Cruise experience offers panoramic viewing decks, comfortable interiors, and an onboard selection of fresh craft beer and drinks. Our experienced skippers tailor each cruise to optimize viewing opportunities based on weather conditions and recent wildlife sightings, ensuring every trip is unique.
