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 views with The Remarkables mountain range in the background. During our three-and-a-half-hour drive, we'll see forests, small towns, rivers, and springs, including Lake Te Anau, the second largest in New Zealand. We'll make stops at Mirror Lake, Eglinton Valley, Monkey Creek, and others.
Upon arriving at Milford Sound, we'll see Gunn Lake, Hollyford River and Falls Creek. Before boarding the boat for our cruise along the fjord, we'll provide a picnic lunch for you to enjoy at your convenience.
During the cruise, we'll admire cascading waterfalls, lush vegetation, and towering mountains. Look out for Mitre Peak, native birds, sea lions, and possibly dolphins.
At the end of the tour, we'll return to Queenstown hotels, arriving about 13 hours after pickup.
