Queenstown, New Zealand, ligger ved bredden af sydøens sø Wakatipu, sat mod de dramatiske sydlige alper. Det er kendt for eventyrsport og er også en base for at udforske regionens vinmarker og historiske minebyer. Nyd seværdighederne, når du går ud af byen og mod det utrolige Fiordland.
Te Anau er en smuk by på Sydøen i New Zealand. Det er kendt som en gateway til Fiordland National Park og Milford Sound. Regionen er hjemsted for truede, flyveløse takahēfugle og rigelige ørreder i Te Anau-søen. Nyd en kort pause her på vej til Milford Sound for at bryde rejsen, tage en kop kaffe og strække dine ben.
Denne smukke dal er glaseret med stejle sider og et fladt gulv. Den er mellem en halv kilometer til to kilometer bred og har et helvedesild flodbund, som konstant ændres ved Eglinton-floden. Dette er et utroligt stop, du vil foretage bortset fra din rejse til Milford Sound med sydlige opdagelser.
Nyd en spadseretur blandt små søer med fantastiske refleksioner af Earl Mountains, hvis vejret er tilladt om dagen. Dette er en nem, kort gåtur fra Milford Road.
Fortolkningspaneler viser virkningen af snøskred på Milford Road og giver information om dyrelivet i Eglinton Valley. Besøgende faciliteter inkluderer toiletter og en telefon (kun betaling med kort).
Gunn-søen er en slående smuk sø på Sydøen, New Zealand.
Nyd en fantastisk udsigt over den øverste Hollyford Valley, mens du fylder din vandflaske fra denne gletsjer fodret forår. Friendly Keas (en New Zealand alpin papegøje) elsker dette område, så det er et godt stop for nogle kea-pletter.
I en højde af 945 meter over havets overflade og 1,2 kilometer i længde giver den uforede vejtunnel adgang gennem ren klippe til Milford Sound med en gradient på 1 i 10. Komplet i 1953 styrer trafiklys trafikstrømmen gennem tunnelen. En utrolig del af din rejse langs Milford Road.
Cleddau-floden er en smuk flod i New Zealand. Det strømmer ind i hovedet på Milford Sound. Du vil se mange dele af denne flod, når du rejser langs Milford Sound-vejen.
Milford Sound er en fjord i den sydvestlige del af New Zealands South Island. Det er kendt for tårnhøje Mitre Peak plus regnskove og vandfald som Stirling og Bowen-fald, der falder ned ad dens rene sider. Fjorden er hjemsted for pelssælkolonier, pingviner og delfiner. Milford Discovery Center og Underwater Observatory tilbyder udsigt over sjældne sorte koraller og andet marint liv. Bådture er en populær måde at udforske.

Mitre Peak er et smukt dramatisk bjerg på Sydøen i New Zealand, der ligger ved bredden af Milford Sound. Det er en af de mest fotograferede bjergtoppe i hele landet.
Milfords næsthøjeste vandfald er Stirling-vandfaldene, en svimlende 151 m højde - tre gange højden af Niagara-vandfaldet, men det 1.300 m store bjerg bagved forskyder denne utrolige højde. Dette er det berømte vandfald, som Hugh Jackman 'sprang ud' i filmen Wolverine. Den store dråbe Stirling Falls giver både mulighed for at komme lige nedenunder - det er en utrolig følelse at have kraften på 151 m værdi af isvand, der falder så tæt på dig.
Sinbad Gully ligger bag den verdensberømte Mitre Peak, og er kendetegnet ved ekstremt stejle, glasudskårne vægge, der er præget af nær lodrette granitklipper. Disse mure bremsede skadedyrsinvasion ind i kløften, og som et resultat forbliver et antal unikke indfødte arter i Sinbad. Southern Discoveries brænder for at bevare Milford Sound's skønhed for fremtidige generationer, hvorfor det er en nøglepartner i et større bevaringsprojekt - Sinbad Sanctuary Project. Målet er at se dalen i New Zealands mest fotograferede bjerg (Sinbad Gully ligger ved bunden af Mitre Peak) blive et fristed for indfødte arter.
Den fantastiske Lady Bowen Falls er Milfords højeste vandfald. Det kaster 162 meter fra en hængende dal ind i hovedet af Milford Sound og leverer elektricitet til Milford Sound-township ved at fodre et lille vandkraftprogram samt være vandkilden til bosættelsen.

Everything worked perfectly. Our guide provided knowledgeable information along the way. He stopped several times along the way for photos, once for a breakfast break and another for a bathroom break. On board the buses, there is no storage space for bags except between your own feet. Since the buses have a glass roof, there is no storage space above the heads, and there is also no net on the back of the respective front seat. The bus was only heated a little on board, which we found very pleasant in the curves, as it helped us get less motion sick. The buses are very new and in very good condition. However, we found the seats to be very, very narrow, without being particularly thick or large. At least you can recline them quite far back. No toilets on board the buses. The ship drove very close to a waterfall once. Even if you stood at the railing in the front, you hardly got wet, however. The change of clothes we brought with us was therefore unnecessary. We had booked the tour with a buffet, which we would not do again. You spend the first 20-30 minutes below deck because of this and, despite the windows, see less of the tour. The food was a bit bland, but okay. Knowledgeable information on the go.
A very long day but well worth it! Our guide, Haymish, was great and his stories and knowledge about New Zealand and the scenery around us helped the drive pass by (as did looking at the beautiful views out the window!). We had a few stops on the way for coffee/breakfast, opportunities to see some lakes, rivers, and other scenic points, and to stretch our legs. The Milford Sound cruise was incredible and worth the drive! Would recommend this trip to anyone visiting NZ.
Kia ora, Thanks for the great review. We'll be sure to pass your comments on to Haymish – he'll really appreciate it. It is a big day out, but we're glad Milford delivered. Thanks for travelling with us and for the recommendation! Ngā mihi nui
Amazing tour and views! Enjoyed every bit of the trip. Our driver, Vaughan (I think that was his name!), had great commentary and knowledge, which made the trip even more enjoyable. Would 100% do another tour with this company!
Hamish is THE MAN🙌 smoothe drive, entertaining, informative, helpful and very accommodating to everyone! This tour was a mesmerizing and unforgettable experience. A MUST DO for sure. Thanks to Hamish and the team for a memorable day.
Great day travelling to cruise the Milford Sound with Southern Discoveries in one of their glass top buses. The bus driver 'Brownie' as he calls himself was very informative about the areas we drove through and made a few photo stops along the way. The boat was beautiful and the buffet lunch we paid for ahead of time offered a variety of delicious options to please all palates. This tour company is centrally located in Queenstown where we boarded the bus but they also picked up other groups at their hotels along the way. I highly recommend booking with Southern Discoveries. They are top notch!
Kia ora, Brownie will be delighted to see this — really glad he made the drive as enjoyable as the destination. The glass-roof bus really does change the way you take in the scenery on the way through, and it sounds like the buffet set everyone up nicely for the cruise. Thanks so much for the wonderful recommendation. Ngā mihi nui
This tour was top knotch! Ellie was the best guide, so funny and kind and thoughtful, saved us a set of 4 seats together on the bus when we boarded, suggesting we stock up on lunch items in te Anau, and so informative, with lots of local knowledge along the way. We noticed of all the buses, southern discoveries has the most modern one and also has a glass roof so u can see the alps as you drive, plus ph charger. The 2 hour boat tour is the best, if u drive all that way, of course a longer boat ride is the choice. Jack was an excellent driver too. It was the highlight day of a 2 week NZ trip for us!
Kia ora Linda, Ellie and Jack will both be absolutely thrilled to read this — what a lovely thing to come back to. The Discover More trip really does give you that extra time on the water, and it sounds like Ellie's touches along the way made all the difference. Highlight of a two-week NZ trip is high praise indeed — thank you. Ngā mihi nui
Coach crew, Nick and Ally were great! Lot of knowledge and they were so funny and kind. We also had great experience on the boat, with Jess as a guide. We were lucky enough to see dolphins and seals! Everything was going great and we didn't have any issues on our trip.
Kia ora, Dolphins and seals in the same day — that's Milford really putting on a show. Nick, Ally and Jess will be so pleased to read this; it sounds like the whole team were on great form. Really glad everything came together so seamlessly. Ngā mihi nui
We had an absolutely wonderful experience on our journey to Milford Sound, and it was truly made special by the amazing team of Southern Discoveries! A big thank you to Jas from Lady Bowen Cruise, who was exceptional throughout the cruise. Jas was warm, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable, making the entire experience both informative and enjoyable. The way everything was explained, along with the friendly approach, really enhanced our appreciation of the stunning scenery. We would also like to sincerely appreciate Bus Captain Peter and the driver Jack for the journey from Queenstown to Milford Sound. The drive was long but absolutely seamless, thanks to their professionalism, safe driving, and great attitude. The commentary along the way, smooth handling of the bus, and well-timed stops made the trip comfortable and memorable. Overall, a truly 5-star experience from start to finish. Highly recommend this team to anyone planning a trip to Milford Sound!
Kia ora Vincent, Peter and Jack will love seeing this — and Jas on Lady Bowen will too. The Discover More trip really does give that little bit extra, and it sounds like the whole team brought their best on the day. Thank you for such a generous and detailed review. Ngā mihi nui
This was a long day be really enjoyable. Our driver Greg was excellent. We paid extra for the buffet…that was a mistake.
Kia ora Matt, Really glad Greg made the day — he's a great one to have behind the wheel. Sorry to hear the buffet didn't hit the mark; that's useful feedback we'd love to hear more about. Feel free to get in touch at info@southerndiscoveries.co.nz. Ngā mihi nui
Our tour guide, Vaughn, was excellent and made the trip for us. We would whole heartedly recommend him to others who decide to make this trip! We are from Maine and were a little disappointed not to see much in the way of marine life. However, the day was absolutely beautiful and we are both glad we got to experience Milford Sound and the fun of listening to all of Vaughn’s stories about the region! He warned us that seeing marine life wasn’t a guarantee, but as we stated above, Vaughn more than made up for it! Ralph and Josie Davies Harpswell, Maine
Kia ora Ralph and Josie, Vaughan will be thrilled to read this — he really does have a way of making the journey as memorable as the destination. Wildlife sightings are always in nature's hands, but it sounds like Milford still put on a beautiful show. Hope Maine is treating you well on your return. Ngā mihi nui
