Milford Sound Fly/Nature Cruise, Queenstown

Introduction

A journey to Milford Sound by air and from the water, this journey begins when a vehicle picks guests up from their hotel for a transfer to the Queenstown Airport.

Boarding a twin-engine aircraft, this half day tour includes a 35-minute flight of panoramic views, spectacular alpine scenery and the magnificence of the Southern Lakes’ glaciers, rainforests and waterways.

Landing at Milford Sound Airport, you will transfer to a boat for a leisurely nature cruise that covers the full length of the fiord to the Tasman Sea itself. Thundering waterfalls, lush jade rainforests and towering peaks surround you, while playful seals, leaping dolphins and even the enigmatic penguin can be spotted in the waters around you.

A picnic (including a vegetarian option) and Obento lunches are available at an additional cost and must be pre-ordered. Cafe style food is available for purchase on board the vessel. Please ensure that you remember to bring comfortable shoes, a waterproof jacket, warm clothing and insect repellent.
