After looking at several reviews, we opted to book our trip with Mitre Peak Cruises. We chose an early cruise, which had both advantages and disadvantages. There were only 12 people on the boat, which meant you had plenty of room to move for phots etc. Our accomodation hosts did say that the afternoon generally brings out more wildlife. We... more

Having read reviews beforehand we chose Mitre Peak over larger vessels and were delighted we did. The experience was much nicer on a smaller boat and we went further out into the sound. The skipper (Roger?) was a great chap and extremely friendly and chatty. We had also arrived early and the reception team got us on an earlier trip.... more

Really enjoyed our cruise at Milford Sound with Mitre Peak Cruises. Endless tea, coffee and hot chocolates during the cruise. The staff were friendly. We saw seals, dolphins and penguins. This was a highlight of our trip and something that I had wanted to do for years. more

Drove to Milford Sound from Te Anau and caught the 9.55a.m. sailing with Mitre Peak Cruises. We chose Mitre Peak Cruises because it was a small ship and goes to the entrance of the Sound past St. Anne's Lighthouse.It was an amazing cruise and the captain (Roger?) was wonderful, full of information and he has a great sense of humour.... more

We traveled independently around NZ and booked various tours. This one was a winner. The company was prompt in replying to inquiries, and their arrangements were 100% reliable. A bus picked us up in the early morning near our hotel in Queenstown. The driver was safe, full of information, and he tried to accomodate all of us passengers from all... more
