After visiting Milford Sound this is an unexpected treat which enables you to see a magnificent film about the exhilarating beauty of the South Island as well as mainstream movies, while enjoying a chilled glass of Malborough Sauvignon Blanc.

Trips n' Tramps run tours from Te Anau to Milford Sound picking up from your accommodation. They use mini-buses with no more than 12 people and stop at various places along the way for short walks, to explore the flora or for photo opportunities.

The guide is very friendly and informative and they will even make tea and coffee in a billy can using river water! Best drink ever!

Posted by Aotearoa66 3 September 2007

Enjoy the Kiwi scenery. The 55K Milford Track leads from Te Anau to the Milford Sound. On the way you see unspoiled nature. From great waterfalls, to dense forests and keas (naughty mountain parrots), a walk of a lifetime. At the end you are rewarded with Milford Sound, a treat for all senses. Whether guided or on your own, don't miss it !

Doubtful Sound

Posted by simonplatt 3 September 2007

More remote, much bigger and far less crowded than the more well-known Milford Sound, Doubtful Sound is one of those rare places that justifies the word ‘awesome’.

Book an overnight tour on a three-masted boat and discover a place that is equal part-myth and geology. You can launch a kayak off the boat and discover one of the Sound’s many creeks up close, as the cliffs tower above you and the water flows like molten glass beneath your oars.

Then it’s back on board for a hot shower, a glass of wine and the camaraderie of people who’ve shared something quite spellbinding.
