This was easily the highlight of a trip full of highlights. The staff was incredible, made us feel like royalty. The food was top notch, and the boat was breathtaking. Our original trip to Milford Sound had to be moved to Doubtful Sound due to a road outage. The owners went above and beyond to make sure our trip went uninterrupted. I would recommend this cruise even at twice the price. An unforgettable experience. Thank you to the captain, owners, and all the staff.

The service was warm and friendly. The dinner was delicious, as was the breakfast. Kayaking was fun but less time than desired (only allowed for about 20-30 minutes).

Beautiful Milford Sound
Very enjoyable stay on the Fiordland Discovery. Milford Sound was gorgeous, the crew was wonderful, the food was tasty - our family was in the bunk room. Beds were comfortable but it was hot. A great way to see the Sound without rushing back to Queenstown in one day!

Fjordland Discovery charged me twice for the trip and claims that they never received the Orbitz payment.

An Experience Worthwhile
A beautiful experience first class service , first class meals . We even scored a free upgrade where the teenagers had a room to themselves.
So much to see , had a spa in the hot tub late at night and the tranquility was absolutely amazing
