Remote, mysterious and uniquely New Zealand. Milford Sound is a spectacular reminder of the forces of nature that shaped this land. Formed thousands of years ago during the ice ages, Milford Sound is the northernmost fiord in Fiordland National Park and is, without doubt, the most dramatic. Here in this place of unparalleled beauty, you will find cascading waterfalls, luxuriant forests and the towering pinnacle of Mitre Peak rising one full mile into the sky.

No matter what the fiord's mood, shrouded in mist or with sun glistening on deep waters, it will inspire you. No one is better equipped to share this natural wonder with you than Fiordland Travel. This is our home and we offer an exciting range of ways for you to discover the magic that is Milford Sound.

Fiordland Travel brings the dramatic beauty of Milford Sound within reach as a day trip from Te Anau or Queenstown. Grand, brooding, serene and wild, Milford Sound draws visitors from all over the globe to cruise its length - and wonder. Luxuriant rainforest clings to sheer rock walls washed with waterfalls.
We will take you by luxury coach or plane, to cruise the Fiord in one of our spacious, modern vessels. With luck you will catch sight of dolphins, seals and rare penguins.

Return luxury coach transport from Queenstown to Milford Sound with a Milford Sound launch cruise along the full length of the fiord to the Tasman Sea.
On boarding a Fiordland Travel luxury glass roofed coach in Queenstown visitors are treated to a relaxing trip along the shores of Lake Wakatipu and through the rolling countryside to Te Anau. Informative commentaries are presented by the coach driver and multi lingual commentaries are available via individual headphones. After a morning tea break in Te Anau, where visitors have the option of purchasing refreshments, the coach continues along the spectacular Milford Road. There is time for photo stops and short walks along the way. On reaching Milford Sound visitors board a luxury Fiordland Travel vessel for a cruise of the full length of Milford Sound to the Tasman Sea. The vessel provides excellent viewing opportunities and plenty of time is available to enjoy waterfalls, rainforest, mountains and wildlife. A comprehensive commentary is presented throughout the cruise.

Complimentary tea and coffee are available during the cruise. Return transport to Queenstown is again by luxury coach, providing passengers with time to reflect on the beauty of the afternoon scenery.
