Milford Sound Tours & Holidays

Milford Sound was dubbed the 'eighth wonder of the world' by Rudyard Kipling and is beautiful, rain, hail or shine.

Natural beauty abounds at this stunning New Zealand destination. Lovers of the great outdoors come here to hike the Milford Track, but you don’t need to be a super-fit adventurer to enjoy the breathtaking scenery. Marvel at snow-capped mountains from one of the many walking trails, watch fur seals playing in the water at Dusky Sound or take an overnight cruise to wake up surrounded by incredible views. Don’t worry if it’s raining, as this will make the waterfalls even more spectacular.

Queenstown Southern Loop

Grace · Traveled March 2024
This is my first time in New Zealand. The experience that I never forget. I love the Country and the people around as well the Landscape. It's my first time to see a lot of herds, along the way to Stewart Island. And also the World Heritage site of Millford Sound. And when we are at Te Anue. We have the experience of Jet Boat on the river. And that was exciting 😄. Over all I Love this experience. I have something to tell to my grand Daughter.

Premium New Zealand Encompassed

New Zealand - 5 Stars. Wayne (our tour leader) - 5 stars. Intrepid - 2 stars. Coming on this tour you know you are going to be impressed with the scenery, the friendliness of the people and the focus on environmental conservation. You will not be disappointed. The itinerary is good - if a little breathless at times - and if you have the same guide we did you will be guaranteed a wonderful time. The only shadow cast over our trip was due to the lack of care provided by Intrepid. Watch out for “feature stays” being replaced by much lower class accommodation with no notice or compensation. And don’t expect a response if you need to contact them.

Premium New Zealand Encompassed

As expected, NZ is a beautiful country with breathtaking sceneries and waterfalls. You see unique birds like the mountain parrot ( they are a treat) and of course the kiwi ( seen in enclosures). The trip feels rushed in some areas where it was really scenic and you just have to pass without even taking a photo. Milford Sound is a highlight. Hotels are a mixed bag, best was in Franz Josef. Overall, an unforgettable trip, but it could be a lot better.
