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.

值得一去的旅程

早上10点半从Te anau出发,晚上7点多一点返回到达Te anau,共计9个小时不到的行程,我们这一辆车子大约有16人左右,坐的是一辆小巴士,座位还挺舒服的,向导非常专业,一路都在讲解,还准备了小踏板方便我们上下车,雨天的米尔佛德峡湾很壮观,我们一路看到了企鹅、海狮(或者是海豹?)。 回Te anau的路上我们还看见了可爱的Kea。 Picnic Lunch很丰富,有一个烟熏鸡肉三明治、一个苹果、一个橘子、两块曲奇饼干、一个巧克力、一小袋薯片、奶酪和小饼干。船上还有咖啡、茶和牛奶可以自取。

超出预期

非常喜欢,超过预期,没做过其他的船,但是非常推荐这家,在瀑布下面很爽,也有专门的地方可以看到水下自由的生物,峡湾经常大风大雨的天气,做好被淋湿的准备,但是这种天气对我而言很加分,别有一番风味

Turned a pretty drive into a total experience

Sublime. Incredibly informative bus driver, who stopped at gorgeous places, in arguably the most beautiful part of the country. Highly recommend this tour. In fact think it is a must if you can possibly do it. We would have just driven through with no idea about the geography, history, conservation efforts, or the phenomenal stops along the way. It turned a pretty drive into an absolute experience. Thank you people. (,And to our driver... Your dad should definitely do this tour!)

Small group, brilliant guide

We did a Milford sound coach + cruise tour with under water observatory tour. Our driver Brad was such a lovely person, very knowledgeable, loved the little folklore and historical facts he told us about during our drive to and fro Milford from Queenstown .We were just 6 of us on our way to Milford, so almost felt like a private tour. Glass top bus made a huge difference, we could see the peak of the mountains and waterfalls so easily. The cruise was so much better ( I have done it with another provider in the past few years ago ) the boat was new luxurious and the crew was very helpful informative and funny. We got to see seals , our brilliant driver took us just below the waterfall, it was such a magical experience. The under water observatory was great too. Overall an A++ experience.
