MILFORD SOUND CRUISE with Real Journeys - Queenstown to Milford Sound
Today, I went on an incredible journey to Milford Sound, New Zealand. Originally, I wanted to rent a car to go there for a Milford Sound Cruise, but that would have been a long drive from Queenstown and I just didn't want to do it myself.
So I asked my hotel to book me on the best bus they knew of. And I am SO glad they did!
Milford Sound really makes you feel tiny. Even the drive down from Queenstown is amazing. I told out driver along the way that it was so impressive, I'd feel like I got my money's worth even if we didn't make it to Milford Sound.
I took my trip with Real Journeys and it was about $200 NZD. The driver was fantastic! He narrated the trip the whole way down, using personal experiences to paint a picture of the history of Fiordlands National Park. He was amazing.
Can't recommend Real Journeys highly enough. I'm not one for bus tours, but this one was really worth it, in my opinion.
You can read more about that experience here
And sorry about the sound in some places. The wind was really blowing hard. And while I have a great microphone, I don't think the windscreen was attached properly. Still, it's pretty great!

It was our third day in Queenstown, we planned to visit Milford sound. Milford sound is one of most beautiful and iconic places in New Zealand. It is the wettest place in NZ, and it rains for about 200 days a year.
We got up early and caught the coach at 7am. It tool five and a half hours to get there, on the way the driver stopped by some locations and allowed us to take pictures. The driver is very friendly and provides a lot of information..
The cruise to the Milford sound is one hour and forty five minutes. The weather was raining but because of this, more waterfalls formed so the sight was spectacular. The boat went underneath the waterfall and we got really wet. This was an unforgettable trip to Milford Sound.
The information below is from the website
Situated on the west coast of the South Island, Milford Sound is a fusion of spectacular natural features with amazing visual cues around every corner.'
Described by Rudyard Kipling as the 'eighth wonder of the world', Milford Sound was carved by glaciers during the ice ages. Breathtaking in any weather, the fiord's cliffs rise vertically from the dark waters, mountain peaks scrape the sky and waterfalls cascade downwards from as high as 1000 metres. When it rains in Milford Sound, and it often does, those waterfalls multiply with magnificent effect.

The Road to Milford Sound – New Zealand's Biggest Gap Year – Backpacker Guide New Zealand
Day 146: Today we are taking one of the most scenic road trips in New Zealand, the Road to Milford Sound! We’ll show you some awesome stops to do along the Milford Sound Road as part of our 365 Days: 365 Activities!

Tomorrow – Day 147➜
30 Tips for Backpacking in New Zealand ➜
-- About this video --
Today we are finally leaving Te Anau and taking the Milford Sound road to Milford Sound. We’re taking a whole day to do this because there are so many awesome things to do on the Milford Road along the way!
We hit State Highway 94, the Milford Road between Te Anau and Milford Sound. First stop for us is the Eglinton Valley – a 2km wide valley with unreal scenery. There’s plenty of space to park up safely and embrace! Next, we stop at the Mirror Lakes, a short walk to a super reflective lake.
There are many safe viewing areas and lookouts to pull up to along the Milford Sound Road to see the Hollyford Valley and array of waterfalls on a rainy day like today.
Next we stop at the famous Homer Tunnel carved right through the granite of the Darren Mountains. It took around 20 years to build and is the start of our descent into Milford Sound. We arrive in an amazing valley of glacier-carved mountains and Fiordland National Park forest. This has to be one of the best roads in New Zealand.
Tonight we are staying in one of the only accommodation in Milford Sound, The Milford Sound Loge.
So what do you think of the Road to Milford Sound? Do you think it’s worth taking your time on? LUK in the comments!

MILFORD SOUND, NZ | glass top bus, scenic nature cruise, flight over the mountains!
♥ Wednesday, October 26, 2016 - On our first official day of tourist-ing, we woke up at the crack of dawn to take a really long scenic bus trip from Queenstown to Milford Sound. On the way, we saw a peak of the actual Misty Mountains from Lord of the Rings! At Milford Sound, we took a scenic nature cruise. Lastly, we flew back to Queenstown (about a 1/2 hr flight versus the 3.5 hr bus ride!). We were really fortunate to have fantastic weather for our cruise -- we hear that two out of three days, it rains! I would still highly recommend visiting Milford Sound regardless - it is stunningly beautiful!
··· A FEW MORE DETAILS ···
Our trip was from Sunday, October 23, 2016 to Sunday, November 13, 2016. So 22 days in total, with a good chunk of those days being in transit days.

Cruise Milford Sound - New Zealand
Cruise around Milford Sound, New Zealand.
This video captures some of the views of Milford Sound on a cruise run by Go Orange.
Described by Rudyard Kipling as the 'eighth wonder of the world', Milford Sound was carved by glaciers during the ice ages. Milford Sound is breathtaking in any weather. The fiord's cliffs rise vertically from the dark waters, mountain peaks scrape the sky and waterfalls cascade downwards, some as high as 1000 metres.
Milford Sound Encounter Nature Cruise, South Island, New Zealand
This video is about my day trip from Queenstown to Milford Sound in 2013. We took the Milford Sound Encounter Nature Cruise around lunch time on that day. Took off around 7am in the morning and got back to Queenstown after 8pm at night, it was a long day's drive but it is worth it. The scenery along the way is amazing and it makes you forget about the time. The cruise is a must take in the South Island. Apart from the breathtaking amazing mountains, you can also see some wildlife, have the chance to taste the 100% pure and real spring water! The best water I have ever tasted so far!
BEST MILFORD SOUND CRUISE - New Zealand Travel
Experience Milford Sound through the Jucy Cruise. Driving through a waterfall and seeing some seals, we had an amazing time in the 8th Wonder of the World. This is day 9 of our New Zealand tour. We will take you through the tour and tell you how the Jucy experience was.
