Milford Sound day cruises New Zealand
Milford Sound is simply stunning - it is a natural wonder of
world fame. In Maori legend, the fiords were created not by
rivers of ice, but by Tu Te Raki Whanoa, a godly figure who came
wielding a magical adze and uttering incantations. Milford Sound (Piopiotahi)
is without doubt his finest sculpture.
Whatever the fiord’s mood, teeming with rain or with sun
glistening on deep water, it will inspire you. Nowhere in
Fiordland do the mountains stand as tall, straight out of the sea.
In the foreground of the fiord, stands Mitre Peak, a remarkable
presence dominating the skyline.
Experience Milford Sound's grandeur with Real Journeys - we
offer a range of daytime cruises to suit all travellers:

Helicopter fly back to Queenstown option
