You will find both Milford and Doubtful Sound deep down in the South Island of New Zealand in the Fiordland National Park.

&nbsp;

Milford Sound&nbsp;is around 13kms long and famous for its dramatic mountain peaks waterfalls. Home to Mitre Peak, it&rsquo;s easy to see why people flock here.

&nbsp;

Doubtful Sound&nbsp;is three times longer than Milford Sound, home to three arms named Hall, Crooked and First arm. Commonly known as the sound of silence and famous for Wildlife sightings, Doubtful is a real adventure experience.

Non-slip shoes/boots, waterproof jacket, warm sweater/fleece jacket, sunscreen/sunglasses, insect repellent, camera and cash.

This guided cruise across Doubtful Sound is the perfect opportunity to fully immerse yourself in the spectacular scenery of New Zealand. Doubtful Sound, located in Fiordland, is the second-most-popular attraction in New Zealand thanks to its pristine wilderness, captivating mountains and natural wildlife.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

On this tour, you will cruise across the sound for three hours, which will allow plenty of time to soak up your gorgeous surroundings. Be sure to have your camera ready, as you may spot dolphins or perhaps even penguins amongst other sea and sky creatures. Feel free to bring a packed lunch to enjoy as you sail. Snacks are avaible on board; cash only.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

After your tour, you will return to shore, where your bus driver will be waiting to return you to West Arm. Then, you will cruise back to Manapouri.

Go Orange

We had booked this trip and had it confirmed with Backpackers therefore believing it was to go ahead only to discover when we got to Te Anau that the company Go Orange did not have us booked on it therefore we missed the date when we were in Te Anau. Backpackers confirmation is not a confirmation with the company organising the trip be warned

Even though we had lots of rain, the cruise was a true pleasure. The staff was wonderful and made the whole experience very enjoyable.
