β β β β β Milford sound is worth all the hype, i guess its one of the few places that amuses everyone coming to see it.
I want to thank mitre cruise for having me on board and allowing me to enjoy the 8th wonder of the world that is milford sound. Mitre cruise is the most economical cruise in milford but that doesn't hinder you from seeing everything that the others do. The boat being smaller than other ls around, you would enjoy the waterfall upclose and under it.
I would highly recommend mitre cruise for anyone is looking for an economical ride in milford. You won't be disappointed as you will enjoy all the perks of other big boats minus the breakfast (you stille get complimentary tea/coffee).
When we went, there was no problem of sandflies anywhere except where we parked our car but its recommended to have an insect repellant.
My only recommendation to mitre cruise will be about the speakers on board as i had trouble understanding some of what the captain was saying (maybe cos i was always standing on the deck).
100% worth the money and 100% recommended ?.

β β β β β Very first time at Milford and couldnβt have picked a better cruise company to explore it with. Our skipper was great and Mitchell and Bailey (other staff alternating throughout the boat) were very helpful and provided a lot of information from local perspectives. Beautiful part of the world. Definitely the 8th wonder! Ps mitre peak could possibly also include hot chocolate to the drinks stand for those that donβt drink coffee / tea. Otherwise, amazing experience and canβt wait to return. Got soaked by Stirling waterfall!

β β β β β Skipper and crew were enthusiastic, had good knowledge of the area that they relayed during the cruise to the passengers, and were very friendly. Tea and coffee available on board. Bathroom facilities available. Allow 2 hours drive from Te Anau. Scenery was indescribably beautiful!

β β β β β We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 hour cruise on Milford Sound with Mitre Peak Cruises. Its been over 26 years since we were last on the water on the sounds so it was a great re-introduction. Great commentary and friendly crew made it an enjoyable experience. Keep up the good work guys.

β β β β β I was so excited for this cruise but became terribly worried at the dock as it seemed there was going to be a lot of people. However, there were two cruises leaving at the same time. It turns out the cruise was very reasonably sized, heaps of room.
The trip was fantastic and I have been recommending it to everyone I've seen since.
The only reason I have not given 5 stars is that I could not really hear the captain telling us about the sights, features, and history of the sound. This may be due to the fact I spent the entire trip standing on the front of the boat though.
I don't think it detracted much from the overall experience but the info I did hear was really interesting so perhaps I did miss something.

β β β β β A great 2 hour trip down the fiord to the Tasman ocean. The boat was comfortable with plenty of different viewing options. It is accessible to wheelchairs and prams. You can purchase hot drinks on board, not sure of food options. We took our own lunches onboard. All the features were pointed out, and history of how the geographical features were formed was explained. We saw Dolphins, Seals and various bird life.

β β β β β Communication was great so it was easy to find and prepare for the drive there. It was wonderful to hear the commentary with stories about the Sounds and different mountains and rock formations throughout the journey. We got to stop and see some wildlife which was amazing, we managed to see a penguin, some dolphins and seals. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking. Would 100% recommend taking this tour. Just don't forget insect repellent because there are tonnes of sand flies!
