Pure Miford

Great tour of milford sound with Pure Milford. The staff were very friendly, knowledgable, and engaging. The skipper did an excellent job of manuvering the boat close to the shore, and the commentary was interesting and engaging. I had a great time. Thanks Pure Ilford for a great excursion.

Laurelle_A, Oct 2026

Worthwhile even in the rain

Even in the rain this was a fantastic experience. The tours work smoothly, the tour guide was brilliant (full of relevant knowledge and fun facts), and umbrellas are systematically provided. I am not normally a movie buff, but the attention to detail is superb!

Premium Milford Sound Small Group Tour & Cruise from Queenstown

Lew_B, Oct 2026

A very scenic and beautiful day

The trip to Milford Sound was just as beautiful as the sound itself. While it was a very long day, there were multiple stops for photo ops, food, and toilet breaks. The tour guide was engaging and helpful and made sure everyone got where they needed to be. I'm very happy we added this to our itinerary.

Waitomo Glowworm Caves Guided Tour

Erin_R, Oct 2026

Glow-worms were like a thousand starts in a sky

We did the 45 minute caves experience and it was amazing. A beautiful guide, Tami was so kind & friendly & informative. Down in the cave he sung a little song in Maori & it gave me goosebumps! The glowworms were everywhere... they did not disappoint.... it looked like a thousand stars in the sky. They made the entire tour group be quiet so it was, very spiritual & serene

Milford Sound Flight and Cruise Tour from Queenstown

Graham_B, Oct 2026

My son and I booked this...

My son and I booked this packaged as a way to get the views and get to Milford Sound without the road travel. Turned out far better than expected! Michael's knowledge and the way he explained the history, geography and sights of the mountains was what made more than just a flight. Learnt so much before we even got to the cruise, and then learnt even more on the flight back. Would recommend this to anyone, such a great day, skip the drive, and see the most amazing scenery.

Shotover River Extreme Jet Boat Ride in Queenstown

Rebecca_B, Oct 2026

Awesome ride and staff!

We had a fantastic ride with our jet boat pilot Joe. One of our group got a bad dose of motion sickness and vertigo, Joe realised he was unwell and dropped him off with his wife, before rhe ride finished. The staff were very lovely offering help and support. The rest of the group loved the ride! So much fun!

Walter Peak Gourmet BBQ Lunch & Queenstown Lake Cruise

Rich_W, Oct 2026

Steamship/lunch/sheep dog adventure

Fun adventure on a 1912 steamship to Walter Peak. The boat ride across the lake was scenic, and educational if you take advantage of going below deck to see the inner working of the ship - very hot down there but worth it to see for a few minutes. The BBQ lunch was plentiful and excellent. You won’t leave hungry. The “farm” really started the sheep dog - who was excellent. We did not see a shearing demo, but was quite fun to see the sheep dog herd those sheep!

Absolutely amazing day. From pick up to drop off, we enjoyed the whole trip. For a long 12 hr day, not once were we disappointed or felt the day drag. Our driver was amazing, the views spectacular from the beginning, the cruise was a once in a lifetime experience, not one complaint. Comfortable bus ride and amazing nature views. 1000% recommend. Thankyou pure Milford.

Franz Josef Glacier Heli-Hike

Dakkota_M, Aug 2026

A once in a lifetime...

A once in a lifetime experience. Sarah was our guide and she was incredibly knowledgeable about the glacier, and made sure to take us on a fun and beautiful adventure across the glacier. The company was very honest about potential weather cancellations, and handled a surprise cloud cover with very practiced calm. Highly recommend doing this tour!
