Experience the breathtaking beauty of Milford Sound in exceptional comfort with this premium, all-inclusive day trip from Queenstown or Te Anau. Combining spectacular scenery, personalised service, a boutique cruise and gourmet dining, this is a memorable way to discover one of New Zealand’s most iconic natural wonders.

With thoughtful touches throughout the day, this experience is designed for travellers who want to enjoy the journey as much as the destination.
Your day begins with departure from Queenstown or Te Anau, travelling in comfort through some of New Zealand’s most extraordinary landscapes. The journey is part of the adventure, with scenic stops along the way.
On arrival at Milford Sound, board the beautifully appointed MV Sinbad for a two-hour cruise through the spectacular fiord.
Admire the dramatic cliffs rising from deep waters, watch for waterfalls cascading down sheer rock faces, and take in the unforgettable sight of Mitre Peak. Keep an eye out for local wildlife, including fur seals, dolphins and native birdlife.
With comfortable indoor seating and open-air viewing areas, you can relax and enjoy the scenery from different perspectives while your onboard host brings the landscape to life with stories and local knowledge.
Dining is an important part of this premium journey. Enjoy a welcome drink before settling in for a five-course tasting menu prepared by acclaimed New Zealand chef Tom Hishon.
Featuring seasonal ingredients and flavours inspired by Fiordland, each course offers a distinctive culinary experience against the backdrop of one of the country’s most beautiful landscapes. An optional wine pairing is also available for guests wishing to complement their meal.
After your cruise, return by road through the magnificent landscapes of Fiordland, with the opportunity to reflect on a memorable day.
For an extra-special finish, choose an optional scenic flight back to Queenstown. Soar above alpine lakes, rugged peaks and remote valleys for a completely different perspective of this remarkable region. Snowscene highly recommends this option.
