Enjoy a unique and simply unforgettable experience of the breathtaking Milford Sound aboard Milford Sounds' friendliest cruise!

Highlights

  • Climb aboard a comfortable catamaran for a spectacular sailing through Fiordland's famous UNESCO World Heritage site
  • Choose from ample indoor and outdoor decks for the best vista viewings opportunities in the fiord
  • Enjoy a cruise along the full length of the fiord, to the Tasman sea and back, hitting those all-important highlights along the way
  • Spot Fiordland flora and fauna with the friendly crew, and learn the local insights from our knowledgeable skipper

Discover the best of Milford Sound on a scenic cruise aboard a spacious and comfortable catamaran.

Cruise capacity is capped to allow for plenty of room to roam the vast viewing decks, and ensuring no squabbling for space during photo ops!

Choose to relax in the comfortable interior cabins, or visit the outdoor decks to breathe in the sights and sounds of the fiord.

The famed fabulous scenery is guaranteed to leave you speechless as you are spoiled with ancient rainforest, towering cliffs, cascading waterfalls and magnificent views.

The jovial and cheery crew are on hand throughout the cruise to share their wealth of local knowledge, take those all-important photos, and join you to feel the spray as the boat noses close to Stirling Falls for a refreshing finale!

You are welcome to visit the skipper in the open wheelhouse who can help you spot seals lounging on rocks, look out for dolphins curiously coming for a surf, or perhaps even a Fiordland Crested Penguin if the time is right.

Enjoy complimentary tea and coffee throughout the cruise, with the option to purchase further hot and cold beverages and refreshments from the on-board Cafe Bar.

Great tour

We enjoyed our tour, the driver was very informative and funny which made it a fun experience. The complimentary hot drink was also fantastic. We will be booking this cruise next time we come for sure!

The most special time

We went on the early cruise at 9:30am and were so lucky to see a large pod of dolphins that haven’t been seen for months since the winter (we went in early April) the staff were lovely and knowledgeable, happy to take photos and chat to us. The weather was wet as meant to be and we saw some good waterfalls. The complementary hot drinks were lovely too. Would recommend them over the other as half the price too! Definitely get there super early and use the free car park, the walk is nice. But be careful getting in and out as the ramp is steep and not paved.
