Incredible Solitude
What an amazing experience! Cannot recommend enough. There is a lot of debate whether to do Doubtful or Milford sound. The answer is actually easy, you absolutely have to experience both. They are both different but amazing experiences! Milford sound has the shock and awe with all the waterfalls. Doubtful Sound is peaceful and the solitude is incredible. We were basically the only people in the Fiord. Special shout out to Georgia who was an amazing tour guide! She had an awesome energy about her and it made for an unforgettable day. Multiple guides were involved that provided local insight into the beautiful Doubtful sound. We enjoyed the relaxed style that made the stunning scenery just that bit more enjoyable. Also really enjoyed getting to stop for a quick swim in a Fiord! Thanks again for an amazing experience :)
Amazing experience, very well-organized
Best excursion I've ever done. This is a family-owned business and your guides are Kiwis. They are super organized, and knowledgeable, and take pride in providing a great experience. The setting is spectacular, the kayaking allows you to fully experience the scale of the fiords and serenity of the landscape. Great if you enjoying being in nature, a little exercise, and experiencing the landscape.
