Pure Milford Sound

We had a fantastic experience in Milford Sound. The Pure Milford cruise boat was very modern and because we had amazing weather, we sat at the top the whole time. The commentary on board was excellent and had some funny jokes. There was complementary tea & coffee available but at the dock, try to remember to take insect repellent for the sand flies. Luckily they are not a problem on board. A wonderful experience and bookme made it easy and a reasonable price, thank you.

Wicked time

I took my 5 year old daughter and partner on the eco tours Fiordland- Milford Sound cruise. My daughter had an awesome time and was ecstatic all the way home. The weather was wet and windy at times but that just adds to the beauty of the fjords. We look forward to returning. The staff were welcoming and were able to give my daughter and experience that filled her with joy.

Amazing, Life changing

The 4-hour drive from Queenstown was 1000% worth it. We were lucky to have the rain. The drive through Fiordland was amazing with hundreds/ thousands of waterfalls to see. We didn't think it could get any better until we jumped on the cruise and were blown away by the breathtaking scenery!! Being 2 Aucklanders from a busy city, this cruise was life-changing. The boat was very comfy with lots of view points, spacious seating, complimentary hot drinks and helpful staff on each level. The tour guide was awesome and shared a lot of knowledge with us. He even took us up close to a few waterfalls (our fave parts!). We stayed at the top viewing deck for most of the cruise and laughed together with other tourists while battling the wind and getting splashed by the waterfalls, so definitely take a good rain jacket and a change of clothes/ towel for afterwards. BOOK THAT TRIP IN NOW ;)
