Milford Sound Fly-Cruise-Fly Tour da Queenstown

This was truly unexpected and quite a pleasant surprise for us. We had initially planned to visit Milford Sound during our trip, but unfortunately, our schedule only allowed for a single day in Queenstown. Given the limited time and the fact that we didn't want to spend our precious day inside a van on a long drive, we faced a bit of a dilemma. We knew Milford Sound was famous for its breathtaking scenery and iconic fjord landscape, but fitting it into our tight itinerary seemed challenging. Fortunately, Lena at Discover Queenstown came to our rescue. She was incredibly helpful and thoughtful throughout the process. When we explained our situation and our wish to experience the beauty of Milford Sound without sacrificing our comfort and time, she immediately shared some fantastic ideas with us. Lena suggested a day trip that would maximize our experience while minimizing the hours spent traveling in transportation. She took into account our preferences, the limited time we had, and the need to enjoy the scenery comfortably. Lena went above and beyond by handling all the arrangements. She booked our tour, ensuring that all logistics were taken care of smoothly. From pick-up times to included meals and guided commentary, she provided all the details we needed to feel well-prepared. Her thoroughness and attention to detail made us feel confident and excited about our upcoming excursion. Throughout the planning process, Lena was not only professional but also warm and personable. Her enthusiasm for her work and her genuine desire to make sure her clients have memorable experiences shone through in every interaction. She patiently answered all our questions, offered helpful suggestions, and reassured us about the trip's quality. On the day of the tour, everything went perfectly. The transportation was comfortable, punctual, and scenic in itself. As we traveled through the stunning landscapes towards Milford Sound, Lena’s recommendations made the journey even more enjoyable. She pointed out interesting sights along the way, shared fascinating facts about the region’s history and geology, and created an engaging atmosphere for everyone on board. Arriving at Milford Sound, we were awestruck by the sheer natural beauty surrounding us. The towering cliffs, cascading waterfalls, and pristine waters were even more magnificent than we had imagined. The cruise we took was incredibly smooth and relaxing, giving us ample time to soak in the scenery and take countless photos. It truly felt like a bucket-list experience come to life. Reflecting on the entire process and the trip itself, we couldn’t have been more grateful for Lena’s assistance. Her exceptional service transformed what could have been a stressful logistical challenge into a seamless and memorable adventure. Her dedication and expertise made a significant difference in our experience. We left Milford Sound with incredible memories, stunning photographs, and a deep appreciation for the natural beauty of New Zealand. The team at True South Flights was friendly, professional, and went above and beyond. Our pilot, Luke, was great as was our van driver, Sam (who picked us up at our hotel and returned us as well). To say that the sights and sounds were amazing undersells the experience.

Absolutely fabulous! Strongly recommend this experience to see Queenstown and the surrounding mountains by air!

There is only one way to see Milford Sound and this is it! Our pilot Luke was amazing.

Amazing experience all around. Great True South team at the office and a great pilot (Luke) provided a very enjoyable and seamless experience. That combined with a great cruise from Pure Milford provided one of the most memorable experiences.

Michael our pilot was fantastic. He ensured our flight was smooth and the views were next level. The whole experience with this company was amazing. I would strongly recommend his company if you want to experience Queenstown by air!

Wow what an amazing experience. Luke was our pilot and we all knew we were in safe hands. This will forever be one of my favourite holiday experiences. Thanks Luke & Team.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An absolutely incredible experience from start to finish. The flight over Milford Sound was breathtaking, and seeing the mountains, lakes, and glaciers from the air was something I’ll never forget. A huge thank you to Michael, our pilot, who made the trip even better. His commentary throughout the flight was informative and engaging, explaining the scenery we were flying over while keeping everyone entertained with his friendly personality and funny jokes. He made the whole experience that little bit better! I couldn’t recommend True South Flights more highly. If you get Michael as your pilot, you’re in for an amazing (and safe!) flight!

An absolutely fantastic experience. Clear communication prior to the flight, seamless experience on the day. The pilot Luke was friendly and knowledgeable, and let our young son sure in the copilot's seat. The views from the plane were stupendous, and Milford Sound was stunning.

Words cannot describe the experience we had on this trip. The flight and cruise and flight back had something for everyone. The flight was very informative and everything was just great!

From the check-in staff, to the ground crew, to Luke the pilot and all cruise crew members the service was brilliant. The views stunning. All of us had a brilliant day and recommend!
