Highlights:
Milford Sound is considered the jewel in the crown of the Fiordland National Park and this package has been carefully crafted to ensure that our guests are given the best possible Milford Sound experience by land, air and water, in complete privacy and luxury.
Following an extensive home-cooked breakfast, guests will be collected from the Lodge by their private guide to begin their journey along the Milford Road for their full day tour of Milford Sound.
The Milford Road is a destination in itself, with never-ending photo opportunities. The drive will include a number of scenic stops and short walks to showcase the hidden gems of this renowned location.
Upon reaching Milford Sound, guests will enjoy a two-hour luxury boat cruise on the stunning Fiordland Jewel. Guests will be guided through the Sound by expert crew who will share their knowledge of the incredible natural wilderness and local wildlife, including seals, dolphins, penguins and Fiordland’s rare black coral.
While out on the water, guests can savor a wide selection of drinks from the well-stocked bar, alongside a set-menu two-course lunch out on the deck, while taking in the majestic views and beauty of the fiords.
The Fiordland Jewel will ensure guests get up close and personal with their surroundings, cruising under waterfalls and marveling at the sheer granite cliffs that tower above the inky blue waters.
Following the cruise, guests can either return to the Lodge along the Milford Road with their private guide, with the option of enjoying more extensive hikes, or enjoy a one-hour private helicopter flight through the Fiordland National Park, flying over snow-capped mountain peaks, hidden lakes, powerful waterfalls and lush forests. Guests who choose to take to the skies will enjoy two remote mountain landings before the final descent at Cabot Lodge.
This is the ultimate Milford Sound experience.
