Hi!  We say to allow 2.5 hours to drive into Milford Sound for your nature cruise as you will want to stop along the way and take photos. Even if you weren't stopping I would still allow 2 hours as Google Maps does not take into account the windy roads and one-way sections of the road. There is free parking available on Deep Water Basin Road, this is a 20-minute walk from the terminal. Otherwise, if this is full there is a paid parking at the Milford sound terminal

Hello, I would like to book the Milford Sound nature cruise. I was wondering if this tour is wheelchair accessible and if so is it easy access , can the person sit by the window to see out?

Comments

Thanks for your inquiry. The Milford Sound Nature Cruise is wheelchair accessible, most of the boats have split levels so you will not be able to access the decks above but they do have space on the lower decks where there are windows so you will still be able to soak in the amazing views of the sounds. Getting onto the boat and into the terminal has wheelchair access so that would be no problem, if you do have some mobility we could also look into getting you up on the upper decks as well

Hi,
I know it seems like a silly question, but is the Milford Sound cruise rocky? Do people get sea sick?

Comments

Hi there, That's not a silly question at all. The Milford Sound boat cruise actually does not go out beyond the heads into the open ocean. It stays in the confines of the fiord (Sound) the entire time so there is little to no swell. It does however depends on the weather conditions of the day.
