Day Trip Details

At the indicated time, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Queenstown to set off on our trip to the Milford Sound Fjord. Once onboard the minibus, we'll head to the west coast of New Zealand.

As we leave Queenstown, we'll drive along Wakatipu Lake, admiring the views with The Remarkables mountain range in the background.

During our three-and-a-half-hour drive, we'll enjoy views of surrounding forests, small towns, rivers, and springs like Lake Te Anau, the second largest in New Zealand. We'll make several stops to admire landscapes at Mirror Lake, Eglinton Valley, Monkey Creek, and more.

As we approach Milford Sound, we'll see Gunn Lake along with Hollyford River and Falls Creek. Upon arrival, we'll board a boat for a cruise along the fjord, which is a registered UNESCO World Heritage Site. A picnic lunch will be provided for you to enjoy at your convenience.

During the two-hour cruise, we'll see cascading waterfalls, lush vegetation, and towering mountains, including Mitre Peak. Wildlife such as native birds, sea lions, and possibly dolphins can also be spotted.

At the end of the tour, we'll return to Queenstown hotels, arriving approximately 13 hours after pickup.
