Experience the grandeur of Milford Sound on this full-day cruise and coach journey. Travel the Milford Road in a premium glass-roof coach, before taking an extended boat cruise through Milford Sound.
Let us handle the driving while you soak in one of New Zealand’s most dramatic and scenic journeys. This tour includes a return coach transfer to Milford Sound from Queenstown or Te Anau, and a fully immersive Milford Sound cruise with an onboard nature guide.
Our premium coaches feature glass roofs, USB charging, WiFi, and an onboard nature guide delivering commentary revealing the stories behind every peak and waterfall.
Arriving at Milford Sound, step straight onto your Milford Sound cruise. Setting this cruise apart is an onboard nature guide and a cruising time of over two hours. Cruise alongside towering peaks and feel the spray of waterfalls cascading from sheer rock faces. Get close to Bowen Falls while watching for New Zealand fur seals lounging on sun-warmed rocks, pods of dolphins surfing the bow wave, and if you're lucky, the rare Fiordland crested penguin.
Your return coach journey to Queenstown or Te Anau will offer a different perspective as afternoon light plays across the landscape.
We had an absolutely wonderful experience on our journey to Milford Sound, and it was truly made special by the amazing team! A big thank you to Jas from Lady Bowen Cruise, who was exceptional throughout the cruise. Jas was warm, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable, making the entire experience both informative and enjoyable. The way everything was explained, along with the friendly approach, really enhanced our appreciation of the stunning scenery. We would also like to sincerely appreciate Bus Captain Peter and the driver Jack for the journey from Queenstown to Milford Sound. The drive was long but absolutely seamless, thanks to their professionalism, safe driving, and great attitude. The commentary along the way, smooth handling of the bus, and well-timed stops made the trip comfortable and memorable. Overall, a truly 5-star experience from start to finish. Highly recommend this team to anyone planning a trip to Milford Sound!
Very comfortable coach, punctual and professional services. Peter, our guide had a good sense of humour. Jack, our driver gave us an incredibly smooth drive. While on the cruise, it was a fantastic experience. Jazz, our guide on the cruise gave very good information while on-board and had a great sense of humour. Our vessel was very comfortable and small making it possible to navigate close to the mountains and our captain ensured that we spotted seals and dolphins from up close.
Awesome tour with Southern discoveries.

I feel incredibly lucky to have had the opportunity to jump on this day mission. It certainly is the 8th wonder of the world, as the only kiwi aboard I couldnt help but wish more New Zealanders could experience this beautiful part of our country, thats not to say this excursion was out of reach as it was certainly value for money, Queenstown on the other hand (Jeeeeeeee whizzzzz!!) The bus ride was comfortable, Peter was an amazing guide and Jack drove that bus like a champ 🏆👏 The photo stops were breathtaking! And the cruise was out of this world amazing. An experience i will never forget! 10 stars 🌟
