“This was a nice short trip in Milford Sound. The 90 minutes boat ride was just right for me - not too short and not too long. The boat was riding along the sound to the sea and back with a short stop at a waterfall, where you could take a shower at the front of the boat. The boat itself was nice, as well as the crew. The booking via backpackerdeals was smooth and saved me 26 Dollars :)”

“Did the early morning cruise. Was awesome. Staff were efficent at checking everyone in quickly. Got on board and had a hot breakfast cake ready and waiting. I had bacon one but there was also vegetarian option. Nice to have something warm when it was so cold out Great cruise, knowledgeable captain as he pointed out lots of different animals surrounding the boat. Seen dolphins jumping beside the boat, seals and even penguins. Scenery is amazing and can even get wet under a waterfall if you wish! Would recommend”

“Brilliant 2 hour morning cruise (8:55 sailing) on the Sound and out to the start of the Tasman Sea. Breakfast cake, juice and tea/coffee were great. Booked online and got it for $39 each, saving $6 a ticket! Thoroughly recommend this cruise to everyone. Add to that that the drive down to !ilford Sound was just stunning - take time to savour the drive!”
