Description
A trip to New Zealand is not complete without visiting Milford Sound. Commonly known as ‘the eighth natural wonder of the world’, this is a trip that you do not want to miss! With Southern Discoveries, you can experience this natural beauty from above, on and below the surface with their coach, cruise and kayak trip.
On this full day trip from Queenstown or Te Anau, you will travel on a premium glass-roof coach which will give you panoramic views of the scenic alpine drive. The coaches are equipped with reclining seats, extra leg room, air-con and free wifi to ensure maximum comfort on your journey. Your knowledgeable guides will point out all the highlights and stop at the best photo stops along the way.
Upon arrival at Milford Sound you will embark upon a 2-hour relaxing Nature Cruise along the Fiordland and out to the Tasman Sea stopping at waterfalls along the way. Bring your rain coats for this one as you get a splash from the mighty Stirling Falls! Your nature guides will also provide you with commentary and help you spot some of Milford Sound’s most famous wildlife including seals, dolphins and penguins! A picnic lunch will also be provided on the boat.
Following your cruise, you will get to experience this magnificent Fiordland by kayak. You will enjoy 2 hours of guided kayaking in a secluded cove with experienced guides who will get you so immersed in the nature you can reach out and touch the water! You may even get lucky and have a close encounter with some of the local marine life! This guided kayak is suitable for all fitness levels and no previous experience is required. Before heading back to Queenstown, you will also get the chance to experience Milford Sound below the surface with a visit to the Milford Sound Underwater Observatory.
