Scenic drive to Milford Sound
Embark on a 4-hour drive from Queenstown to Milford Sound. Witness the transformation of landscapes as you travel through Southland's farmlands and into the heart of Fiordland National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. As the drive continues, lush rainforests and glacier-carved valleys unfold, offering photo-worthy moments at iconic spots like the Eglinton Valley – a testament to nature's artistry – and Mirror Lakes, which mirrors the majestic Earl Mountains.
Milford Sound cruise
The highlight of the trip is a 1-hour 45-minute cruise on the Milford Sound aboard the 'Gem of the Sound', the only glass-roof vessel in the fiord. As the vessel nears the Stirling Falls waterfall, brace yourself for a refreshing spray when the bow ventures beneath! You can opt to upgrade to a premium, small group experience with lunch from an onboard café while soaking in views that feel painted just for you. The vessel's spacious decks, large windows, and HD camera footage ensure you don't miss a moment of this surreal view.
Return Drive to Queenstown
After the cruise, relax on a return drive to Queenstown, reflecting on the day's magnificent sights and experiences.
