Milford Sound is arguably the most scenic destination in New Zealand. Located in 3 million acres of the Fiordland National Park, Milford Sound is a "must-see" for any traveler. Magnificent untouched native forests and bush, pristine waterways and lakes, glacier and high peaks.
BBQ Bus is a small group tour for travelers seeking a personalized trip to Milford Sound. You will be transported in a brand new 22 seat coach. The maximum group size for lunch is 20-21 people. Generally the average group size is 15 people.
As we drive out of Queenstown we will travel south along the side of the amazing ‘Remarkables’ mountain range and New Zealand’s longest lake, ‘Lake Wakatipu’. From Te Anau the scenery really begins as we drive north along the lake. Lake Te Anau is the largest lake in the South Island.
On entering the Fiordland National Park, which is the largest National Park in NZ we travel up along side the Eglinton river to three mountain lakes at the head of the Eglinton valley. During this part of the journey we will make the fist of our many sightseeing stops that also allow for some great photo opportunities.
We have a couple of different locations for lunch and we’ll endeavour to select the best spot on the day.There are some fantastic walks in the area and this is a great opportunity to experience the beautiful alpine beech forest up close.
After lunch we head towards the Homer Tunnel, taking in some incredible mountain views while driving along side the crystal clear waters of the Hollyford river. We make some great scenic stops along this stretch of the road, at his time of day there are few other buses on the road. Once through the Homer Tunnel, we wind our way down the Cleddau Valley. At this time we will reveal why you are in an area called ‘Fiordland’ but are visiting a ‘Sound’, the difference will be explained.
We link up with the 'Milford Heaven' for the 2pm cruise. It is a 1.40 hour excursion on the fjord. As we are daily customers they look after us and give us some great reserved seats. There is complimentary tea and coffee on the boat or experience the fresh mountain water available. Keep a look out for seals and dolphins !
A big day... but a ‘day to remember’
