Reviews: From Queenstown: Milford Sound Cruise and Coach Day Tour
Guest User2026-01-02
The weather was great, and we were able to see more beautiful scenery than we had imagined! The bus ride was long, but the magnificent scenery and the many sheep and cows we saw made it an enjoyable experience. The cruise and the guide were both great! I would definitely take part in this tour again if I have the chance.★

Reviews: Queenstown: Skippers Canyon Goldrush Highlights Tour
Guest User2026-01-09
★★★★★Koreans looking for a tour in Queenstown... This is the place. A Korean audio guide is provided throughout the tour. Honestly, even if you speak English to some extent, you'd probably miss 70% of the professional commentary. But this tour offers a detailed and expert explanation of Queenstown's gold rush history and Skippers Canyon, perfectly recorded by a professional audio guide, not a low-quality AI translation. Listening to the in-depth Queenstown gold rush history while taking in the scenery through the window and comparing past and present photos from the expert guide was truly like time travel in Queenstown. Skippers Canyon is inaccessible by rental car, so this professional tour was a must-do. If you're visiting Queenstown, I highly recommend Skippers Canyon, especially if you enjoy exploring cultural heritage sites while listening to commentary! Of course, you can also change to the music channel (one headset provided per person) and listen to your own music as you go. You can enjoy the Shotover River and the Remarkable Mountains while riding, and the scenery outside the window is truly amazing. And the tour guide is super friendly and great!!! Another great thing is that this tour started last summer, so word of mouth hasn't spread yet, so you can tour as if you're chartering a car with just your group. It feels like a private tour!! Even though it was just the two of us, the guide worked really hard to make the tour enjoyable. And another adorable thing☆☆☆☆☆ is the dog, Aster!!!! The tour guide's pet dog is so gentle, and you can even get out of the car and take pictures with him. I highly recommend it🥹😍😍 And another great part of the tour: at the end, we had a beer at a pub that's been around since the 1800s, just like gold rush miners!! The guide asked about drinks during the tour, and there were various choices. I tasted four beers, and they were seriously delicious. My eyes widened after the first one. I highly recommend choosing beer. This is a must-do tour in Quinta.★

Reviews: Queenstown round-trip: Milford Sound sightseeing bus + cruise + scenic small plane return
Guest User2025-12-31
The travel agency arranged a free taxi to pick us up from the hotel and take us to the designated bus stop to wait for the tour bus. The process was quite relaxed and enjoyable. The guide was humorous and took us to several unique spots for photo opportunities. We were very grateful to them! Milford Sound has many waterfalls of varying sizes, which are spectacular and breathtaking. It's a view I've never seen before; the ocean is truly vast!★

Milford Sound is absolutely stunning! The scenery is breathtaking, the boat tour is fantastic, and the unique landscape not found in China is truly amazing. The entire trip, including check-in, was incredibly smooth!
