Our family of four flew with Ben for a touchdown flight to the Milford Sound. We all considered it a highlight of our two-week trip to ANZ. The views of the snowcapped peaks, coupled with the lush greenery of the Sound at sea level. This was actually my second trip with Air Milford - having joined for a fly around the Queenstown area in early 2O25. That is actually part of the important part of the story here. I was scheduled to do Milford Sound with Air Milford when I flew previously. That trip ended up not happening because of weather at the Sound. This time, we also had weather challenges. That matters for two reasons. First, Air Milford - a family-run business - takes passenger safety very, very seriously. There make no trips that compromise the safety of their guests. Second, they also work hard to accommodate their guests. While we were not able to do the Fly-Cruise-Fly itinerary which we originally booked as a family, they waited for the weather to clear to enable the flight and touchdown at the Milford Sound. It was a phenomenal experience for us, and we are grateful for both the care for safety and the effort to find an alternative that worked for our family.
This experience was absolutely incredible. Every step of the way our wonderful pilot was informative, calm, and very knowledgeable. The whole experience was absolutely incredible and would 10000000% recommend Air Milford 😊
I gave this experience 5 stars as it is one of those special memories moments and if you can afford to spend the money on flying it saves the 8-10 hours round trip by coach or car to see the stunning Milford Sound. I’m not actually sure though if this exact trip is available now as when we arrived they were expecting us to do the flight-cruise on Milford-flight home package but I had originally chosen just the landing experience at Milford as I don’t travel well on boats but luckily there was very calm waters so agreed to do the cruise part as was easier to do the same as everyone else on our flight. 9 of us plus Emma boarded the light aircraft and all could have a window. Emma was our amazing pilot and a lovely young woman (sorry can’t remember her name) was also the great skipper on the catamaran. We were lucky in that it was a lovely day and I managed the boat part ok and you even got a hot drink and a muffin on board the boat. Got back to Queensland early afternoon so allowed for more time to explore this very scenic town. As said memorable trip up in the clouds. Thank you Emma, Paige and all at AirMilford. X
Absolutely fabulous trip. All organized fantastic and on time. It was a pleasure to spend our time with Air Milford team!
There is no other way to travel to Milford Sound! The views along the way change from minute to minute. Green hillsides to snowcapped mountains to beautiful blue lakes and of course the sound itself. As a first time small plane traveler, I was anxious at first but there was no need to worry.
Amazing experience and very well organised. Communication was great leading up to and during flight. Many thanks for letting me sit in the co-pilot seat
Thank you Scott for this incredible review! We are pleased to hear that you had an amazing experience and appreciated the communication throughout. It was our pleasure to have you on board, and we’re glad you enjoyed your time in the co-pilot seat! Kind regards, Air Milford
Fantastic not to be missed stunning scenery and great pilot full of knowledge well worth the money. Went on the five glaciers and Milford sound flight
Thank you for the wonderful review! Our Milford Sound & Big 5 Glaciers Scenic Flight truly is a fantastic experience not to be missed, showcasing unforgettable scenery from the stunning Mt Aspiring and Fiordland National Park, with an overhead viewing of Milford Sound. We're so glad to hear you found the flight well worth it, thanks for flying with us! All the best for the remainder of your travels! Kind regards, Air Milford
We flew from Milford Sound to Queenstown with Tom. The experience was outstanding - Tom was friendly, professional and made the flight seem like a specialized tour. He took us over the sounds and back over the mountains pointing out all of the special areas of interest. Our 22-year old daughter sat up front, and he could not have been nicer. Highly recommended trip to complement the scenic morning drive from Queenstown to Milford.
Thank you for the excellent review! It’s great to hear you had an outstanding experience, and that Tom made it feel like a personalised tour. He is very accommodating and values sharing his knowledge about the area we fly in with guests. Although the drive into Milford Sound is undeniably spectacular, the flight back truly completes the experience. Our Coach/Nature Cruise/Fly package is a popular option guests book, as you are able to view Milford Sound from all perspectives. We wish you the best for the remainder of your travels! Kind regards, Air Milford
This was a once in a lifetime experience for me. The views were beautiful, flight was smooth and it was great to learn more about the area. The team did absolutely everything they could to arrange my flight, the pilots were fantastic and incredibly knowledgable and I was so impressed with the effort that was put in to make my flight possible. Everyone was welcoming, friendly, and informative - I can’t recommend them enough!!
Thank you for your fantastic 5-star review. We are thankful for the oppurtunity to host you and hope you got some great views and photos along the way!
We did just the flight, and not the cruise. We took the 2 hours to walk around the area and relax with a coffee at the Cafe. Our pilot, Anthony(?) was very friendly, and gave some fun and informative commentary both during our flights and when we met him at the Cafe. The plane was very, very cool! It had just snowed the night before, so the scenery was even my spectacular. The whole team was very friendly and efficient. This truly is a must-do activity in when you're in Queenstown, and Air Milford is definitely the way to do it!
Hi, It is always great to read a review of the Fly Landing Fly experience. It sounds like you really made the most of the time on the ground in Milford, as well as taking in the scenery of the flight. It is always extra special when there is fresh snow on the hills. Thank you for choosing to fly with Air Milford. Kind Regards, Kate
