An excellent afternoon adventure from pick up to drop off. The flights to and from Milford Sound were amazing with a commentary from our pilot Hamish. The cruise along the sound was extremely interesting and enjoyable with lots of photo opportunities. Well worth taking time out of my itinerary to do.
