Highlights

  • Relaxing coach journey along the Milford Road with plenty of photo stops

Prepare to soak up the beauty and grandeur of what has been called the "eighth wonder of the world" with RealNZ.

Departing from either Queenstown on-board a luxury coach, sit back, relax and take in the stunning location on one of the most scenic drives in New Zealand along Milford Road, while enjoying on-board commentary and various photo stops along the way.

Upon reaching Milford, you'll take a relaxing cruise on board the spacious vessel which boasts fantastic outdoor decks and indoor lounges specifically designed to optimise your viewing experience.

To ensure you experience the very best of Milford Sound on the day, your knowledgeable skipper has planned each trip based on the weather and recent wildlife sightings. As we cruise the full length of the Fiord you'll witness the majestic beauty of Milford first hand while we cruise right up close to grand waterfalls and sheer rock faces, and discover local wildlife such as dolphins, seals and, in season, the rare Fiordland crested penguins.

Enjoy the relaxing scenic journey back on the coach to your accommodation.

Snacks and drinks are available to purchase during your cruise (cash only) or you are welcome to bring a picnic along to enjoy.

Better than driving

Perfect for a day trip from Queenstown! Much cheaper and more enjoyable than driving yourself through difficult and crowded roads, unless you are going to do hiking or longer trip in te anau area. Nice bus, seats angled towards window and glass roof was cool. Interesting stories and narration from guide
