This boutique small boat cruise in Milford Sound limits passengers to half of the vessel's 150-passenger capacity, providing a more personal and uncrowded experience. The cruise lasts 105 minutes and takes place within Fiordland National Park, part of the Te Wahipounamu World Heritage site. Passengers board at Milford Sound and travel through the fiord, passing notable landmarks including Mitre Peak, New Zealand’s most photographed mountain. The boat’s smaller size allows close views of local wildlife such as New Zealand Fur Seals, dolphins, and, during spring and early summer, the rare Fiordland Crested Penguin. Throughout the cruise, the skipper offers live commentary about the area's geography, history, and wildlife. The route includes waterfalls that flow year-round down steep cliffs into the sea, including the opportunity to experience a “Glacial Facial” under Sterling Falls. Complimentary coffee, tea, and biscuits are provided on board. Food is not sold on the boat, but passengers may bring their own. The cruise offers uninterrupted views of this UNESCO World Heritage area and explores the natural features of Milford Sound up close.
