Travel to Milford Sound on a premium coach for the only day trip from Te Anau that includes a visit to the amazing Milford Sound Underwater Observatory!

Journey through spectacular natural landscapes as your local coach driver provides engaging and informative commentary and shows you the best short walks and photo stops along the Milford Road.

Upon arrival at Milford Sound, jump on-board a smaller boat for a fascinating Nature Cruise with fewer people. Soak up breath-taking scenic views as we really explore the beauty of the Fiord, and get within touching distance of impressive rock walls and right up close to Stirling Falls. Our expert skippers will share their local knowledge with lively and informative commentary, plus you'll enjoy a freshly prepared picnic lunch.

Visit Milford Sound Underwater Observatory and descend 60 steps down a spiral staircase into a spacious viewing chamber to discover the unique and beautiful environment hidden under the surface of Milford Sound. Immerse yourself in a mysterious undersea world and encounter the extraordinary rare black coral and colourful sea creatures teeming just below the surface.

We'll then cruise back to the Milford Sound Visitor Centre to re-join the coach for the comfortable return journey back to Te Anau.

INCROYABLE!

C’était incroyable! Un moment hors du temps. Une organisation parfaite, guide intéressant et à l’écoute. Picnic bon et copieux. Nous avons eu un grand soleil, très agréable. Notre date d’origine a été annulée à cause du risque d’avalanche, reporté au lendemain ultra facilement. Je recommande a 100%

Magnifique journée !!!!! À faire !!!!

Très belle sortie dans les fjords avec un temps magnifique (beau et très chaud). Bus confortable et toit panoramique très utile pour les crêtes des montagnes, chauffeur très sympathique et délivre de très bons commentaires. Commentaires traduits en Français à partir de Te Anau. Nombreux arrêts photos. Croisière agréable, commentaires en anglais. Par contre on voit peu de choses à l’observatoire. Tout était parfait ?

Belle exvursion

Une belle journée à Milford sound. Le trajet depuis queenstown est long mais ça en vaut la peine. Nous avons eu un guide très sympa et qui nous expliquait pleins de choses au fil du voyage et des paysages. Plusieurs arrêts photos également.
