It was amazing! Our tour guide was very engaging and was sharing fun facts the entire trip. He also captured perfect pictures!! 10/10 would recommend .
The transport organisation was just great by high standard coach talking us to Milford Sound and back to near our Hotel. Very good commentary on the coach and while cruising for the 2 hours. We recorded great memories throughout the journey.
RealNZ has a really cool tour bus with more windows/ natural light which made the long journey (total 8 hours of driving) very enjoyable. The driver/ guide was also very knowledgeable and provided lotsa information regarding the history of the towns, nature etc. There are a couple of stops on the way to Milford Sound with gorgeous views of the scenery. Milford Sound itself is a 2 hour cruise and the fiord itself is just breathtaking - we were blessed to see rainbow and some dolphins too!
Awesome trip well organised and comfortable bus ride to the location.
