The tour was amazing and the tough guide was very informative and made the trip quite amusing and entertaining
Coach trip was really good (special mention to Junior, the driver). Commentary was interesting, knowledgeable as well as humorous. There were numerous photo stops with a couple of comfort stops too. Milford Sound cruise was amazing, scenery spectacular with good commentary. They included a great picnic box, chicken sandwich, apple chocolate etc which was tasty and plentiful. All in all, I would recommend this coach/cruise to everyone.
Shale the driver was knowledgeable and interesting (and funny!) and kept us entertained the whole drive. Stunning scenery. Truly memorable cruise in spectacular surroundings.
This excursion was terrific. Certainly the best way to see the extraordinary scenery mixed in with historic information and even some botany! The tour bus driver and the cruise captain were both great. It was a perfect blue sky day… not a cloud anywhere! Apparently a pretty rare occurrence! We really enjoyed the day!

Incredible Experience!
An amazing day from start to finish! Keith our guide kept us well informed and his enthusiasm kept us going throughout the 4.5 hour bus journey from Queenstown. It was a long drive but we had plenty of stops anz Milford Sound was spectacular once we arrived. We were very lucky to experience glorious sunshine when our boat set sail along the fjord. An unforgettable day, thank you!
