Excellent experience

Our guide was excellent. I think his name was Keith. It is a long bus ride for a 2 hour boat tour to be sure, but he stopped at many interesting, beautiful vantage points along the way. The box lunch was tasty. The boat was a bit crowded up top but we moved inside to get out of the wind for a bit. Highly recommend the experience.

What a wonderful experience

I would like to say thank you for the wonderful experience and for *Shayle (Not very sure of the name) who guided us and toured us during the way to Milford sound. We appreciate his attention and accommodating us throughout the journey. The sceneries were beautiful and amazing. We have stops and able to take wonderful photos for memory. The cruise was great. Very windy on the roof deck and the time we came there were less waterfalls looking forward to our next travel to Milford. The picnic lunch was good.

Milford Sounds coach n cruise

Our friendly coach driver Shayle shared a lot of knowledge and stories which made the trip go quicker. The scenery is stunning and the boat comfortable. The picnic lunch was great with a tasty and fresh chicken sandwich and lots of treat snacks.
