Enjoy the natural beauty of Milford Sound - mountainous peaks, cascading waterfalls, ancient alpine forests and deep waters. Take a scenic cruise of this majestic sound beneath the famous Mitre Peak.
Depart Te Anau, the "Gateway to Fiordland" and enter the Fiordland National Park, to be mesmerized by the grandeur of this region. As you pass through the Eglington Valley, you will see ancient alpine beech forest, stunning waterfalls and the famous Mirror Lakes where the coach pauses for photo opportunities.
From here the tour progresses through the Upper Hollyford Valley, past the stunning Christie Falls and enters the 1.2 kilometre (0.75 miles) long Homer Tunnel, drilled through the solid rock of a mountain. As you exit the Homer Tunnel, prepare yourself for the breathtaking impact of the Cleddau Valley and the descent into Milford Sound.
At Milford Sound, take a spectacular Milford Sound Red Boat cruise on the sound, where you will see the wonders of Mitre Peak, glacier scarred rock walls that rise 1200 metres (3937 feet) vertically from the sea, and waterfalls that tumble from hanging valleys and crash into the sound far below. After your cruise, re-board your coach for the return journey to Te Anau.
Enjoy this tour with a GPS operated multi-lingual commentary; available in Japanese, Mandarin, German & Spanish.
