Start your journey in Te Anau, the gateway to Fiordland and home to New Zealand's second-largest lake. As you leave the town behind, your guide will share local knowledge, stories, and insights while highlighting notable landmarks and scenery along the route.

Entering Fiordland National Park, stop in the remarkable Eglinton Valley. Carved by ancient glaciers, this broad valley is surrounded by mountains and offers some of the region's most breathtaking scenery, often compared to landscapes seen in fantasy films

Enjoy a brief walk to the famous Mirror Lakes, renowned for their stunning reflections of the Earl Mountains on calm days. These small lakes provide one of Fiordland's most photographed natural scenes.

Hop off the coach to admire the crystal clear waters of Monkey Creek. Keep an eye out for the local Kea (world's only alpine parrot) who are known to come and say hello to visitors

Pass through the impressive Homer Tunnel, a remarkable engineering achievement carved through solid rock. Your guide will share the tunnel's fascinating history before you emerge into the spectacular Milford Sound valley.

Relax as you explore the fiord, surrounded by towering cliffs, waterfalls, and pristine wilderness in one of New Zealand's most celebrated natural destinations. Classic Cruise Package: • 1-hour 40 min cruise, full length of fiord on one of our comfortable and spacious boats • Multilingual commentary: Access expert commentary in your language using the RealNZ Milford Sound app. Signature Cruise Package: • 2-hour cruise, full length of fiord, on one of our unique, character-rich boats • Insightful commentary by our friendly nature guides

Take in Piopiotahi’s most famous view. Mitre Peak rises 1692m straight from the water, all sharp ridgelines and sheer faces, an unforgettable first sight and a dream for photographers

One of Milford Sound’s stunning two permanent waterfalls, Bowen Falls plunges 162 meters into the fiord. On clear days the spray catches the light; on rainy days it roars - either way, it is pure Milford magic

Stirling Falls cascades 146 meters from a glacier-fed, U-shaped hanging valley between Elephant and Lion Mountains, making it Milford Sound’s second-largest permanent waterfall. Named after Captain Stirling, who navigated the HMS Cleo here in the 1870s, it’s a breathtaking sight. Step onto the deck to feel its refreshing mist

Reboard your RealNZ coach and return to Te Anau by road through Fiordland. Enjoy some quiet time to relax, reflect and soak in the memories of your day in Milford Sound.
