Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best time of year to cruise Milford Sound?
The sound is beautiful at any time of year, but the best time to cruise here is during the summer months. Not only do more tour companies operate at this time of year, but you’ll also have more hours of daylight to enjoy the fiord’s stunning views.
How long does it take to cruise Milford Sound?
Each cruise trip varies in length depending on which tour you pick. However, most Milford Sound day cruises typically last between 1.5 and 3 hours. This gives you plenty of time to cruise the entire length of the fiord and pause to take in the scenery along the way.
What can you see on a Milford Sound cruise?
These cruises are a great way to see some of the South Island’s most stunning natural landscapes and fascinating wildlife. Highlights include Mitre Peak, Stirling Falls, and the fiord’s resident penguin, dolphin, and seal populations.
Where do Milford Sound cruise trips depart from?
While it is possible to drive to Milford Sound and begin your trip there, the journey can be a little tricky if you’re not used to navigating winding roads in colder weather conditions. As such, a lot of cruises offer pick-up and drop-off services to help visitors reach the Sound, with many trips departing daily from Queenstown and Te Anau.
