Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Milford Sound, Te Anau, Fiordland National Park 9679 New Zealand
Take a stunning Scenic Flight to Milford Sound from Queenstown, with our fly cruise fly package including a 2-hour Cruise.
Milford Sound is New Zealand's premier tourist destination, and the sheer scale and staggering beauty of the fiord are experienced from all viewpoints.
We will fly you from Queenstown over the Southern Alps with breathtakingly spectacular and endless panoramic views of lakes, forested river valleys, waterfalls, jagged razor-backed ridge lines and snow covered peaks.
After landing at Milford we will choose whether to take the shuttle bus or, if time permits, take you on a short walk through the bush and foreshore to the cruise boat. Once on the boat, you will take a leisurely cruise along the whole length of the fiord. After the cruise, your pilot will escort you back to the aircraft for the return flight to Queenstown along a different flight path.

Couldn't fault the whole experience. Liam the Pilot was very friendly, knowledgeable and kept us informed throughout. Belinda in the office was also friendly and very helpful. Would hesitate to recommend this trip.

From the on-time pick up at our hotel through the check in, flight, cruise, return flight and finally to the drop off, the entire experience was courteously and efficiently managed. Andrew was an excellent pilot and guide and his commentary added significantly to our enjoyment of the experience. The cruise was thoroughly enjoyable too - stunning scenery and saw seals and dolphins - and we were very glad to get back into our plane for the 50 minute flight back rather than face a 4.5 hour road trip. Thank you for an amazing experience.

Great flight over Milford Sound. For Boat cruise don’t forget your bug spray. Felt very comfortable with Andrew and his flying skills.

True South was great to fly with. Total confidence in Andrew in his piloting skills. Thanks for a great day over Milford Sound.

Cannot recommend this company enough!! So professional, and it’s the biggest small plane that flies into Milford sound so in my opinion it’s the safest company to go to! All the staff were lovely but in particular Beth and Henry went above and beyond for my mum and I :)

The team at True South Flights were fantastic. Easy check in process and nice waiting area, plus free parking for the tour! Our pilot was Henry, who had a great attitude and excitement about to flight across to Milford sounds. This was simply one of the most breathtaking things I’ve ever done. Along with Henry’s commentary it made for a great trip. The cruise was beautiful as well. Overall I highly recommend this tour if you can. It saves you a lot of time and it’s a fun way to get to Milford sounds. Mountain surfing all the way. Don’t miss this experience!

The tour was well organized and right on time. Pilots were knowledgeable and very friendly. The boat portion had a great crew and we felt as though the service was superb overall. I can’t even begin to explain the views in words… you must see yourself! The only thing I would have liked improved was the audio on the plane. It was a little hard to understand everything the pilot was pointing out. If the company had a guide pointing out the highlights- like glaciers and rivers,etc:, that one could download and review after the flight- that would be great! We definitely were so glad we flew instead of taking that incredibly long bus ride to Milford Sound and back to Queenstown. It also such a small group that we met some amazing people! I have to say… go on this trip!

Absolutely stunning views only possible from air. True south flights did their best to make the trip happen, even with clouds threatening landing. Andrew, our pilot was friendly and helpful, pointing out the many different sights and mountains.
