What you can expect

Discover Milford Sound from a unique perspective on Rosco’s Milford Cruiser kayaking tour. Perfect for first-time kayakers and families, this relaxed paddling experience takes you through the stunning inner fiord surrounded by towering peaks, rainforest-covered cliffs and breathtaking scenery.

Enjoy incredible views of Milford Sound’s famous waterfalls, including the spectacular Lady Bowen Falls, while paddling across calm waters with an experienced local guide. Keep an eye out for local wildlife such as seals, dolphins and penguins often seen throughout the fiord.

With no kayaking experience required and a shorter paddling distance of around 5km, the Milford Cruiser is an easy and memorable way to experience Fiordland up close while still leaving time to enjoy other Milford Sound activities during the day.
