Ein großartiges Erlebnis

Wir haben einen super Tag erwischt mit Sonne pur, toller Sicht auf die Berge, die Gletscher und natürlich den Milford Sound. Sehr freundlicher Pilot und Guide. Hat viel erklärt. Sehr kleine Gruppe im Flugzeug und auf dem Schiff machten den sonst recht überlaufenen Platz zu einem fast privaten Erlebnis. Nach meiner Erfahrung die beste Art diese grandiose Gegend zu erleben

Thank you for reviewing your Milford Sound Glacier Flight and Cruise. We are delighted that you really enjoyed your experience. Our pilots are great hosts and enjoy immensely the people they are able to meet and share this spectacular part of the world with. At times there are quite a few people visiting Milford Sound at the same time but as you have conveyed, if you choose the fly-cruise-fly option to visit Milford Sound this does not deter from the amazing experience. Safe travels, Regards, Anne.

Exhilarating scenery

Easy booking. Prompt contact with team at sound air to reschedule due to weather issue. Friendly welcoming reception. Felt very confident in pilot and enjoyed commentary. Very smooth transition to coach and amazing boat cruise. A brilliant jaw dropping experience. Would recommend.
