"Beautiful experience,lucky enough to see some dolphins on our trip, the rain made it that more epic as the rain creates those magical waterfalls. So if you’re lucky enough to get heavy rain don’t worry as it creates the most beautiful teardrop’s forming off the Mother Earth…."

"Milford Sound is breathtakingly beautiful and this is the perfect way to see it from Queenstown if you dont want to drive and can't afford flying. Bus is very comfortable and the driver very friendly. Cruise was brilliant, plenty of photo opportunities, we saw waterfalls, dolphins and a seal. Everything went smoothly and I highly recommend it."

"The size of the aircraft, so tiny but so amazing how close we could get to the glaciers for amazing shots. Antz was an awesome pilot and guide. While we had the best 4 days for our 20th wedding anniversary in Queenstown covering a lot of activities and places, this was our special treat and was by far the highlight of our trip, just stunning and exceeded all expectations!!! Aaron and I are talkers and we had very few words, such breathtaking views and so much to take in!!! Loved every minute of this trip and would highly recommend as a 'must do' in Queenstown. Thanks so much Antz."
