The experience

Milford Sound Coach Cruise Fly is the ultimate adventure for travellers wanting to experience New Zealand’s most breathtaking natural landscapes from every perspective. This 9.5-hour tour takes you on an extraordinary journey through Fiordland National Park by land, sea, and sky.

Your Milford Sound Coach Cruise Fly experience begins in Queenstown, where you’ll board a luxury 16-seat Mercedes Sprinter van. Relax in comfort as your expert driver navigates the world-famous alpine roads of Fiordland. Along the way, you’ll stop at stunning scenic spots to photograph the towering peaks, pristine lakes, and ancient beech forests that make this region so iconic. Cross through the dramatic Homer Tunnel and descend into the heart of Milford Sound / Piopiotahi.

Once you arrive, embark on a spectacular Mitre Peak Cruises vessel for an unforgettable 16-kilometre voyage through the fiord. Marvel at the immense Mitre Peak, towering cliffs, cascading waterfalls, and untouched rainforests as your crew provides fascinating live commentary about the area’s history, geology, and wildlife. Sip complimentary tea, coffee, or water while surrounded by this awe-inspiring wilderness.

The highlight of your Milford Sound Coach Cruise Fly tour is the return journey — a breathtaking fixed-wing scenic flight back to Queenstown. Soar above snow-dusted mountains, glacial valleys, alpine lakes, and cascading waterfalls as you witness the unparalleled beauty of Fiordland and the Southern Alps from the air. This exhilarating flight offers a unique perspective of one of New Zealand’s most remote and majestic regions.

For added convenience, optional picnic lunches are available for $30 per person and can be booked at checkout. Whether you’re a nature lover, photographer, or adventure seeker, the Milford Sound Coach Cruise Fly experience offers a truly unforgettable way to explore one of the world’s most beautiful destinations.
