Visit Milford Sound to experience the beauty of this pristine scenic destination, a must-do on every New Zealand itinerary.

For centuries, Milford Sound could only be visited on foot or by boat. Today it’s easy to reach this remote and unspoiled location from Queenstown or Te Anau.

Take an unforgettable journey into Milford Sound and discover its pristine natural beauty.

Milford Sound sits within Fiordland National Park in the southwest of New Zealand’s South Island. The park is part of Te Wahipounamu, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Milford Sound is the jewel of Fiordland National Park – a hidden secret waiting to be discovered.

Despite its name, Milford Sound is actually a fiord, not a sound. It is also the only fiord in New Zealand that is accessible by road. However, its remote location, bounded by steep cliffs and dense rainforest, means its special features remain unspoilt. Rain or shine, Milford Sound continues to captivate even the most experienced traveller with its beautiful surroundings, ink-dark waters, gushing waterfalls and captivating views.

You can visit Milford Sound on a day tour or stay the night. Most Milford Sound tours include cruises but there are a number of other activities on offer, including kayaking and even scuba diving
