Reviews: RealNZ Milford Sound / Piopiotahi 1-day tour with multiple cruises - round-trip from Queenstown to Te Anau, New Zealand
Guest User2025-09-25
It was a very pleasant experience. Although the trip was a bit long, the driver was very friendly and enthusiastic. He explained the local history, customs, and landscapes along the way. He was very knowledgeable and taught us a lot.
The fjord cruise staff were also very friendly and explained the fjord landscape. We saw many waterfalls along the way.★

Reviews: New Zealand Milford Sound / Piopiotahi 1-day tour - Small group of 16 + Mercedes tour vehicle + cruise + lunch
Guest User2025-12-03
I booked one day and went the next. It was a small group with few people, and the foreign driver/guide was beautiful, kind, and incredibly attentive. She provided detailed explanations throughout the trip, stopped at every attraction to take photos for us, and even prepared local plant information and drew a diagram explaining the formation of the fjords. On the way back from the boat, she thoughtfully provided chocolates and umbrellas for when it rained. The customer service was also very patient, assisting us whenever we were worried about getting lost. A great experience!★
