Prepare to soak up the beauty and grandeur of what has been called the "eighth wonder of the world" with RealNZ.

Departing from either Queenstown on-board a luxury coach, sit back, relax and take in the stunning location on one of the most scenic drives in New Zealand along Milford Road, while enjoying on-board commentary and various photo stops along the way.

Upon reaching Milford, you'll take a relaxing cruise on board the spacious vessel which boasts fantastic outdoor decks and indoor lounges specifically designed to optimise your viewing experience.

To ensure you experience the very best of Milford Sound on the day, your knowledgeable skipper has planned each trip based on the weather and recent wildlife sightings. As we cruise the full length of the Fiord you'll witness the majestic beauty of Milford first hand while we cruise right up close to grand waterfalls and sheer rock faces, and discover local wildlife such as dolphins, seals and, in season, the rare Fiordland crested penguins.

Enjoy the relaxing scenic journey back on the coach to your accommodation.

Snacks and drinks are available to purchase during your cruise or you are welcome to bring a picnic along to enjoy.

很棒的一日遊

在眾多家峽灣一日遊的選擇中,我們參加RealNZ的行程,其實它的內容跟其他家都大同小異,差別最大應該就是沒有附午餐。但船上有販賣餐飲,我們點了魚和薯條,還蠻好吃的就是有點貴。 我們一大早從皇后鎮的集合中心一起搭遊覽車出發,車程真的很長單趟約4小時,幸好司機會定點讓大家休息去洗手間,或下車看風景拍照,才不致於太難受。 行前查資料都看峽灣這有2/3的機率是陰天或下雨,但這次我們很幸運天氣很好是個大晴天,藍天白雲搭配著峽灣景色非常美,尤其站在船頭更能飽覽山水交織的風光,欣賞陽光照耀瀑布而形成的彩虹,及發現躺在石頭上睡覺的海獅。 非常棒的一日遊!

郵輪之旅

原本選擇了在住宿處上車,但當天早上一直未等到車子,後來才被電話通知改為另一個附近的飯店上車,讓人度過緊張的早晨。 除此之外,司機導遊相當盡責的解說,整體而言還算愉快。

Way better than driving to Milford sound

Luke is knowledge and awesome, glass roof was a game changer ( those glasses needs cleaning though) Pretty amazing trip to Milford. I drove to Milford 2 times before but taking the bus was way more enjoyable and relaxed. My mom enjoyed the trip very well, she’s visiting NZ and she had a memorable experience . Thank you
