March 25

The captain of the boat made the trip very interesting with his commentary and knowledge of the area. It was very dry so not as many waterfalls as I expected but still an amazing experience. All the crew members were very helpful and courteous. We'll worth it.

Great Cruise

The Milford Sound cruise was great. The scenery is amazing, cascading waterfalls, and and seals, and dolphins. The crew was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the experience even more enjoyable. The boat was comfortable, offering great views from every angle. If you haven't done it, this cruise is a must-do—a highlight in Aotearoa..

Breathtaking

We booked this cruise with 2 friends who were over from the Netherlands and I'm so glad we did. Beautiful views, great stories, helpful and friendly staff and comfortable boat. Would highly recommend this cruise!

An awesome experience

The Pure Milford cruise was amazing. The narration was excellent and gave us great information about what we were seeing, the geology, the weather in the Sounds, the history. The boat was great and I highly recommend standing out on the bow deck.
