It was good sailing and good commentary. But actually the weather was perfect, that's why it was so amazing. It was really rainy and you could experience the very rare phenomenon of Milford sound! The crew was very nice and gentle too!

Apart from the absolutely stunning views I loved the sense of humour from the boat pilot/captain. He was informative as well as having a great sense of humour.
Set sail on a cruise [up to 1 hour 40 mins] through Milford Sound, where dramatic cliffs rise sharply from the inky waters. Feel the breeze on your face as you glide past waterfalls, their mist creating rainbows in the sunlight. Lush rainforests blanket the mountainsides, inviting you to explore their wonders.
Keep your eyes peeled for rare Fiordland penguins and seals basking on sun-warmed rocks. Sip complimentary tea or coffee as the soothing sound of water lapping against the boat fills the air.
Savor the fjord's tranquility as you listen to live commentary detailing the area's wildlife and the Maori legends behind the landscape. Discover the tale of the demigod Tu-te-raki-whanoa, who is said to have sculpted the fjord's features, and learn how these stories connect the land to the people who worship it.
