With discounts we paid $500 pp. Which is Exorbitant for such a short flight in a light plane!! (Eg. my son just flew Geneva to Paris $80 return!!!) But it did include a 1 hour boat trip, and lunch which for the price was a very poor show. A cardboard box with sandwich, apple, and a few packets of snacks. Tea, coffee you pay extra, and as no drink is provided with the meal you pay. Very overrated and hyped up efficient way of extracting tourist dollars. Give it a miss. It’s no more scenic than Queenstown.

We took the panoramic coach from Te Anau. We were picked up from our accommodation. Great nature tour to Milford Sound followed by a 2 hour cruise along the length of the fiord. This is s very profess company. Staff are experienced and courteous. Their knowledge and friendliness were much appreciated. Along the way in the coach, stops allowed for sightseeing added to the experience. Highly recommended.

This was by far one of the best highlights of our honeymoon!
We got the coach to Milford Sound with our brilliant and humorous driver Craig. He knew the best places to stop on the way to stretch our legs and talked none stop about the area, rainforest and had a few stories for us too!

The cruise was amazing, the crew were well trained, polite and knew how to have a laugh. We got the best weather, sunny and warm. The Tasman sea was flat which allowed us the do kayaking and speed boats in the ocean! During and after dinner we sailed around the Tasman and watched a group of whales breach the water. The baby one got over excited and jumped out a few times. The cabin was cosy but the beds were super comfy and quiet. Breakfast was good and very relaxed. We sailed around the Milford Sound and spotted lots of penquins and seals. The captain took us up close to a couple of the waterfalls before docking. We enjoyed every single moment of this overnight trip.

This was a once in a life time cruise and we got the best of everything! It could not have gone any better!
