Afternoon cruise, April

Ich habe die Cruise im Herbst am späteren Nachmittag gemacht. Zu der Zeit war es ausnahmsweise recht trocken, daher wenig Wasserfälle. Die Cruise selber war toll! Der Skipper hat spannende Fakten erzählt, wir haben Delfine und Robben gesehen. Besonders toll habe ich auch den gratis Kaffee gefunden, der mit Wasserfall-Wasser zubereitet werden konnte. !! ACHTUNG kein NETZ und kostenloses WLAN in ganz Milford !!

War ganz schön

Das Wetter war gut, der Milford Sound war ganz schön, allerdings hatte ich das Gefühl das dieser auch ganz schön aufgehypt wird. Der Kapitän ist leider sehr nah an die Robben gefahren, das hat mich etwas gestört, da man zu Wildtiere eigentlich mindestens 10 Meter Abstand halten soll, bei dem Schiff waren es max. 2. Ansonsten war es gut.

Schön aber zu teuer

Die Fahrt ist spektakulär. Ein Muss auf der Reise in NZ. Leider doch zu teuer für 1h45min Bootsfahrt, meiner Meinung nach. Geschichten zu der Entstehung sehr interessant. Das Boot hatte wenig Platz oben.
