Milford Information
You will have a window seat with an unimpeded view, as you fly to Milford Sound through a landscape of unbelievable grandeur & beauty. By flying you see so much more than by road, as we go where no roads can.
Many people tell us that flying through this magnificent landscape to Milford Sound is one the most memorable experiences of their New Zealand visit. On all our Milford Sound excursions we return via the glaciers of the Olivine ice plateau and Barrier range, weather permitting.
Milford Sound - Fly / Cruise / Fly
At Milford you can cruise on the 9.00am, 11.00am, 1.30pm, 3.00pm or 3.45 pm Red Boats during the high season, (October - April) which cruise the full length of the fiord to the Tasman Sea and back to the wharf at the Visitor Centre. By flying, you will avoid the tour bus crowds which arrive from Queenstown in the middle of the day.
It is important that you relax and enjoy the wilderness. However, during low season (May to September) you can cruise on the 9.00 am, 11.00am and 1.30pm Red Boat sailings. Duration: approximately 4 hours
