Don’t miss out on a spectacular scenic flight with Air Milford to Milford Sound and back. This tour is perfect for those who have already done a cruise in Milford Sound and want to experience the spectacular region from the air and land.
This 4.5-hour trip includes a landing in Milford Sound with up to 2 hours on the ground to take a self-guided walk along the shore line, soak up the surroundings, take pictures or have delicious coffee and cake at the cafe (at own expense) before your return scenic flight to Queenstown.

We did just the flight, and not the cruise. We took the 2 hours to walk around the area and relax with a coffee at the Cafe.
Our pilot, Anthony(?) was very friendly, and gave some fun and informative commentary both during our flights and when we met him at the Cafe.
The plane was very, very cool! It had just snowed the night before, so the scenery was even my spectacular.
The whole team was very friendly and efficient.
This truly is a must-do activity in when you're in Queenstown, and Air Milford is definitely the way to do it!

We booked air transport to and from Milford Sound because we were scheduled for an overnight cruise. Unfortunately, we had completely underestimated the potential weather impact. Luckily, the entire crew at Air Milford worked to arrange alternative flight arrangements to ensure we made our overnight cruise as well as our flight home. The pilot, Antony, even arranged to have the cruise ship's bus driver drop us off at a different airfield when weather prevented him from landing in Milford Sound for our return flight. We travel often, and our experience with Air Milford far exceeded our expectations.

Great experience flying over the southern alps into Milford Sound. Just amazing scenery and so cool to get so close to the mountains. All staff were fantastic and helpful.

A brilliant experience, fantastic crew, and great views! I organised a surprise scenic Queenstown flight for my partner's birthday and, to my absolute delight, Air Milford upgraded us to the Milford Sound flight (big shoutout to Sara!). I had been to Milford several times before, but to see it from the air was such an amazing experience that I will remember forever! Would highly recommend.

Wow, such a great flight, we were able to trace hiking trips we had done and were inspired to do more. Tom is knowledgeable and could not have done more. Fantastic day

We were extremely lucky to get this awesome flight in as the weather was due to turn in the afernoon. Our pilot, Tom, was amzing, so experienced and knowledgeable about the area. He pointed out all the areas of interest and made sure that we didn't miss anything. The views and scenery are stunning and well worth cent!
We fully recommend AIR milford and encourage New Zealanders to come and support this local business. You won't be disappointed!

This felt extravagant during the planning but I’m here to tell you it is worth the money. Do it when you first arrive as weather is a big issue. We were able to fly in as scheduled but a front moved in quickly and we had to skip our cruise which was sad but better safe than sorry. So wonderful from the air. A great 1/2 day!
