Wow - what awesome photos! Thanks so much for sharing & for taking the time to review your trip. Our pilots know this region so well & love sharing their knowledge with the likes of yourself. Thanks again! Safe travels from the team at Southern Alps Air.
It is definitely worth experiencing in life! We got to see the marvelous views from the sky high view. The flight was great and safe, only the return flight was bumping and made us a bit sickness. Thanks to our pilot Scott's introduction during the flight and the cruise ship is such an enjoyable experience! Except I lost my wallet during the flight, that's very unfortunate and sad especially it happened during a trip.
Hi Yuhsin Chen, Thank you so much for choosing to fly with us, we're glad we had the opportunity to share our beautiful backyard with you. We appreciate your feedback, and hope you'd fly with us again in the future. Safe travels and have a great rest of your trip.
Once we had the go ahead to fly (due to cloud in Milford Sound) we took off on our 9 seater plane with Southern Alps Air. Flying over Lake Wanaka gave us a glorious view of the whole lake. We soon were over snow capped mountain peaks, glaciers, valleys, lakes and rivers, the views were outstanding…we could see range after range of the Southern Alps and Mt Aspiring standing guard. Henry, our pilot gave us a great commentary pointing out the names of the mountains, lakes and valleys as we passed, giving us a little history along the way. As we dropped down through Milford Sound to land we realised just how small we were in comparison to the giant mountains around us. The Cruise on the Milford Sound (with Southern Discoveries) was stunning! The sun shone, there were some atmospheric clouds. Mitre Peak welcoming us into the fjord with what seemed like vertical walls of rock. The waterfalls dropped majestically from great heights and we even saw dolphins swimming along the cliff edges. The return flight (via a different route) was fabulous too!
Thank you so much for your feedback Lynne! We are so happy you were able to experience the beautiful surroundings of all the Glaciers, Valleys, Lakes and Milford itself. We are thrilled to hear that you loved your experience with us, we wish you all the best with your future travels and would love to have you on board with us again, SSA team!
Excellent experience! Henry from Southern Alps aero was fantastic. Great commentary and service. The picnic lunches for purchase were very tasty and the cruise was beautiful. Great value overall.
Amazing feedback, thank you so much for your review. Glad the Flight from Wanaka-Milford was beauitful, hope to have you fly with us again soon!
Easy booking. Prompt contact with team at sound air to reschedule due to weather issue. Friendly welcoming reception. Felt very confident in pilot and enjoyed commentary. Very smooth transition to coach and amazing boat cruise. A brilliant jaw dropping experience. Would recommend.

Simply breath taking highly recommended!
Amazing experience highly recommended if you have the extra cash! Great commentary from the pilot as well and great service! Cruise was fantastic too but the flight is just stunning.
