Queenstown Explore New Zealand, Australia & Fiji!
Don't just see Milford, but experience it on the longest and most personal cruise in Milford Sound!
Don't just see Milford, but experience it on the longest and most personal cruise in Milford Sound!
Highlights
- Cruise on the original, locally owned and operated Milford Sound Cruise
- The only cruise that includes a visit to New Zealand’s only floating underwater observatory
- See rare black coral growing in its natural habitat and meet colourful sea creatures
- Learn about the story of Milford Sound and our conservation efforts with entertaining videos and easy to read information panels
If you’re looking for an experience that’s more authentic, more insightful, and more personal – this is it!
Cruise on our small boat while our onboard nature guide chats with you and answers questions. Drink glacial water, touch natural artefacts and get under massive waterfalls.
The adventure continues at the Milford Sound Underwater Observatory where you can experience the amazing world beneath the surface.
Descend 64 steps (10 metres) underwater into a large viewing area where windows open your eyes to this underwater haven. Unlike an aquarium, the fish are free to come and go; it’s the people who are contained.

中午的太阳太烈了，视觉还行，拍照较难。
还不错，但没想象中的震撼。中午的阳光很强烈，影响照片的质量。

Cruise was lovely but food option is overrated
Had a nice time on the cruise and the underwater observatory was interesting but nothing really special. The big disappointment however was the food option for $35 you get a sandwich and a few snacks. Downstairs they have a buffet for staff which looks amazing but you don't have access to. Honestly just bring your own food. Between 4 of us for $140 we could have made an amazing lunch. I've attached a photo of the lunch.

Milford Sound (or fjord) very well organised with each cruise, southern discoveries had a personal touch and bonus - getting to do the observatory. Hugely knowledgeable guides more than happy to tell you everything you’d like to know about the unique ecosystem. Skipper even stopped to have a yarn and a biccy with us, had great fun! Thank you team!

Great way to see the fiord!
We loved our tour with sourthern discoveries! The cruise was peaceful and pleasant. We were blessed with perfect weather and we seemed to be the only boat on the fiord (9:30am departure). The lunch was pretty good! Only feedback would be for the sandwich to be labelled with what’s in it. Otherwise loved the variety of snacks - and you get quite a lot of food. The underwater observatory was super cool and informative! The speakers on the boat were a bit fuzzy so I couldn’t make out what the guide was saying when I was outside. Would definitely recommend this cruise :)

值得赶几个小时的路来看
独特的峡湾地貌，只有身临其境才能领会的壮美。如果不怕风和湿，或者说只要不下大雨，还是建议到上层甲板上看。 船上提供咖啡和热水。
