Milford Sound Helicopter and Cruise Tour from Queenstown

Bucklist Experience

It was a fantastic experience - our pilot Pete was wonderful, pointing out lots of incredible sites as we flew to Milford Sound. It also felt very safe and co-ordinated. I would highly recommend it!

Wanaka Nature Encounter Lake Cruise and 4WD Safari

New Zealand highlight

Our trip with Neil Robinson from Ridgeline Wanaka was amazing. He is so knowledgable about farming, the area and the station we were on. We saw sheep shearing (incredible to watch), lamb, cattle and deer grazing high up in the mountain fields. Drove up to the top of a mountain with incredible views of the valley and Lake Wanaka, had coffee and delicious homemade cake. It was the last organized event of our 2 week trip. What a fantastic way to end our time in New Zealand. So interesting and the scenery was incredible. Highly recommend it!
