Excellent day out
We had an amazing day out on VIP Milford trip. We were picked up right on time in a new, spacious and very clean Mercedes van. Our driver Stephen was an excellent host providing facts and information en route to the Milford Sound. He also stopped at a few nice places on the way for us to get out and take in the alpine air. Stephen was an excellent driver and I would say that VIP Milford is the best way to spend your day exploring the stunning fiords and milford sound.

Amazing
We were re-booked with Fiordland Tours as the numbers were low. Jono our Coach driver was absolutely fantastic!!! We didn’t know what to expect he was so welcoming when we were picked up and we had so many beautiful stops on the way to Milford, he had so much knowledge and was genuinely great. The cruise was beautiful and lunch was perfect, definitely recommend anyone wanting to do this trip especially with JONO.Thank you

Wet
Unfortunately weather conditions prevented us from going on the cruise when we arrived in Milford Sound, however, the mini bus ride there and back were really good and saw lots and learned lots. Stephen our driver was very knowledgeable and friendly and made the trip very pleasant in awful weather conditions. A refund was organized straightaway and was impressed with the whole process Would certainly book this company again.
