Southern Discovery
Coach / Cruise / Fly

For the most engaging way to experience the riches of Fiordland National Park. This option includes three modes of transport (land, sea and air) making this the ‘holy grail’ of Milford Sound experiences.

Air Milford works alongside our friends at Southern Discoveries for the Coach and Cruise aspects of this Coach – Cruise – Fly experience.

You will depart Queenstown early morning in a premium 50 seater premium glass-roof coach allowing you to experience views overhead from the road on your journey to Milford Sound.  Expert coach drivers provide time for photo stops and short walks along the Milford road journey.

Once there, you’ll join a Nature Cruise and soak in the highlights of this incredible fiord, waterfalls, wildlife – you wont be disappointed.

A picnic lunch is included in this experience which includes a sandwich, cheese & crackers, seasonal fresh fruit, crisps, a cookie and a small chocolate bar.

On conclusion of the cruise, you’ll be joined by your Air Milford pilot who will guide you on a short nature walk (time permitting) to the Milford airstrip. There you’ll board our luxury Cessna Caravan and experience the wonders of Milford from an aerial perspective before following a flight path back to Queenstown with stunning views of glaciers and the Southern Alps along the way.

Transport will be arranged back to you centrally located Queenstown accommodation.
