Description

Milford Sound is one of New Zealand's most amazing natural wonders, a pure sight to behold! The mountains of Milford are the tallest in all of Fiordland and rise the most imposingly. The cliff faces are covered in dense, lush rainforest and thunderous waterfalls hurtle hundreds of metres into the sea.

The Coach Trip
Your drive from Queenstown will take you down the spectacular Milford Road, located between Te Anau and Milford, it is one of the world’s most scenic alpine drives. The breathtaking scenery is unlike anywhere else in the world ranging from rich rainforest, sheer mountains and plains to icy smooth lakes and fields with alpine herbs.

The luxury coaches are specially designed and use cutting edge technology to provide the highest levels of safety and comfort. The seats are placed in tiers at an angle to give passengers the best views of the scenery outside. The wide glass roof gives easy access to views of snow-capped mountain peaks.

Milford Sound Day Cruise
A leisurely day cruise is one of the most enjoyable ways to experience Milford Sound.

Amazing scenery and great trip. Unfortunately couldn't hear the commentary so missed a lot which was frustrating, and spoilt it, as there was important information being shared, when we went to find driver to clarify information he'd disappeared..

Do you pick up anywhere in Queenstown? I have not booked my accomodations yet but am curious where I would be picked up from? Do you pick up from AirBnBs?

Real NZ uses large 55-seater coaches for this tour. Given the narrow nature of many Queenstown streets- this is not something they are able to offer. They do however collect from the CBD and many bus stops along Frankton road
