Milford Sound

The overland journey to Milford Sound is a jaw-dropping showcase of sheer mountains and towering cliffs, rugged valleys and native rain forest, surrounded by spectacular waterfalls and glacial lakes. We own a fleet of purpose-built, glass-roof coaches that connect seamlessly to our Milford Sound cruises providing the widest range of day trip options from Queenstown and Te Anau. Our coach drivers tailor each journey to ensure the best photo stops are included to suit the season and weather.
On the way to Milford Sound, you will have a lot of photo opportunities! Mirror Lakes, Eglinton Valley, Monkey Creek, Homer Tunnel and The Chasm.
