What you can expect
Experience Milford Sound from both the air and water on this relaxed afternoon adventure. Begin in Queenstown with a pre-flight briefing before boarding your plane for a 35-minute scenic flight. As you cross the Southern Alps, you’ll see glaciers and alpine lakes leading to the sight of Mitre Peak rising above Milford Sound. On landing, step aboard a nature cruise and travel the full 12-kilometre length of the fjord.
Complimentary tea or coffee awaits you as the cruise glides through this remarkable landscape, where seals and birdlife are often seen along the shores. After returning to the wharf, you’ll rejoin your pilot for the scenic flight back to Queenstown. Designed for those who prefer a later start, this air-sea-air experience offers a way to witness Milford Sound’s beauty in a single afternoon.
