Lake Wakatipu

Very well organised day. Beautiful weather which was a great help in ensuring we had a wonderful and memorable day. Gordon was an excellent driver and a charming, interesting and informative guide. We much preferred our journey around Doubtful Sound to that through Milford. This was quiet and relatively peaceful compared to the merry go round of cruise ships around the latter. The five minutes of quiet was very special indeed. How to improve? My only comment is the transfer to and from the boat. Going out there was much unseemly pushing and shoving as a large body of people attempted to get through a small doorway and rush to be first to find the seats of their choice. In addition, there and back, we had passengers (us included) boarding full buses. Why don’t the drivers count those who board to prevent such frustrations?
