Sightseeing cruises in Queenstown

Great crew telling you history of Milford Sound. Was lucky enough to see dolphins, seals and penguins as well. Fab views.

A highly satisfactory and enjoyable experience.

Everything was beautiful. The boat was so fancy and beautiful. The staff was really friendly and lovely. The comments were interesting and useful. Milford sound is one of the best place in the world and this company is my favorite one. I'll recommend them without any hesitation they are amazing.

The professionalism of the pilot/guide of the boat.

As an avid traveler this is one of the best excursions we've done the whole thing was great value for money professionally done and I would recommend it to anyone

The whole trip was a great experience, well worth doing. On the way over to the farm the Earnslaw skipper gives you a good factual commentary about the area and the workings of the steamer. Walter Peak was a picturesque destination. The gourmet bbq lunch was great. Really enjoyed the farm show, especially informative for tourist's. Gift shop was definitely worth a look. Something for everyone.

What an amazing experience from start to finish! The boat ride, Walter Peak, the beautiful views and the food were phenomenal. Highly recommend!

Food was unbelievable. Boat trip great, unfortunate the Earnslaw was out for maintenance.

Being underway on a Steamer, the smells from the boilers and gentle rocking of the ship

The boat ride, the view, the farm tour and the food was all amazing. Checking in was so simple. No dramas. Just an amazing carefree afternoon. Hope to go again sometime but on the tss earnslaw boat once it's repaired. That would take the experience so much more.

Great boat trip. Awesome meal. A little bit rushed though. Could have done with another 15-30 minutes to look around & view gift shop properly at the end.

We both enjoyed the cruise especially the fact that you can see the engine working. The bbq was nice. The booking, ticketing was easy and the staff were friendly.

Very well organised loading / unloading easy Captains educational along the way was great , Mr Stewart ? Singing was very relaxing and enjoyable . Queenstown is such a picturesque township, what's not to like. Thoroughly enjoyed the history of the ship .Barry & Gaye 🤩

Super easy to book. A beautiful calm evening with stunning sunset. Enjoyed being able to see the ship's engine. Delicious meal and impressive farm show. 10/10 experience!

The cruise across Lake Wakatipu was magnificent. Lunch was plentiful and just beautifully presented. Unfortunately, even as a tourist, it's hard to understand other tourists' behaviour. The tour is a "must do" when in Queenstown - especially for the first time. I must admit it was a little confusing how lunch was organised and which entry to go to etc. The other small issue was that the PA on the boat was impossible to understand. I have seen similar feedback - after the experience, but I thought that having the waiter at the table explain the next steps was important and worked well - it was just making sure you were in the right place to get that explanation that may be an issue for some. Overall - it was a great experience and I'm pleased to have done it - best lunch in Queenstown!

it was fun, staff were amazing, wished we could have stayed for the island visit and lunch but we were time poor, so just did the ride over and back

we were happy with the ticketing with headout. As an older couple not completely savvy with the internet an on line ticketing we found headout easy to use. the Earnslaw cruise to Walter Peak farm was awesome and my husband love going in to the engine room wher you saw the crew putting the coal into the big furnaces. The Farm tour was mainly geared for families with chidren so now we wished we had had the BBQ Lunch which we have been told is a must do. Next time .... WE enjoyed very much the dog and sheep show and the tour leader on the farm tour was very informative and happy to answer questions. all in all a good trip which we indeed would recomend

Very happy good food and place

Was great especially for the kids, loved how they could feed the animals

Fantastic trip! Kids & adults loved it. Great food, scenery & experience. Efficient, friendly & knowledgable team.

Various activities, food and overall experience on the cruise

Staff at rest , staff waving us in. Food total experience

The day was wonderful, easy to book the whole day I just loved it... Thank you

Super friendly staff Ticketing was very simple

Very easy system to follow . Great trip and all the staff were awesome

The boat trip was wondering but the food & service was amazing.Would definitely recommend it .

Both cruise and farm tour are memorable

We really enjoyed spending time at Walter Peak, it was such a lovely spot and the food was great

Great evening out to Walter Peak Station Amazing meal with great service all around

great staff on the boat and at the lunch, very professional.

everything is perfect friendly host and beautiful places

Great day. Very informative 😀😀

Great little cruise around Lake Wakatipu with Captain Troy providing an exceptional experience with his knowledge and assitance throughout. SHout out also to Bri who managed the bar superbly.

Good value and great service. The commentary kept us all entertained

The commentary was great very informative and the trip was beautiful

Loved the small boat and that we could get close to the waterfall. My husband and I were happy to be able to stand in front of the boat while the boat was turning. Best experience of our trip! Thanks so much and for the skipper for all the information given during the tour.

A pro tip for future visitors

Ticketing was very easy and fhe small boat ride was really worth the amount paid.

The most surreal experience. Highly recommend. So so beautiful!!!!

Absolutely fantastic the smaller boat so much better and the crew where the best ticketing was so easy and they even kept in touch to let us know when we where expected aboard x our friends did it a few days earlier and had the same wonderful experience xx I recommend you go on the small boat you get closer to nature 👏❤️

It's a spectacular experience, a wonderful adventure in the heart of Mildford Sound! What's more, we were lucky enough to see some dolphins!

Crew was fantastic both in their knowledge and hospitality. They even helped us spot dolphins in the crazy rainy weather. Captain especially made sure everyone stayed safe onboard and the hot chocolate was like icing on cake. Ticketing experience and check in was quite smooth and hassle free

The entire experience was great starting from the booking to the ease of navigation to the place and check in.

really good !! Would recommend anytime. We saw Dolphins and the guide was amazing.

Wonderful trip in extraordinary scenery. Smaller ship, lesser people, better views.

Smoothly driving Stunning view Nice service on the board

Informative commentary, such a beautiful, magical place to visit.

Well organized, super driver/guide Food could be better Coordination on WhatsApp would be appreciated to avoid misunderstandings for the pick up

Brian, the bus driver! A font of knowledge about what we saw along the way plus extra info on farming & fishing, very very interesting to get an insight on that aspect. Great sense of dry humour too. He is a very experienced driver! The ride and the boat trip were spectacular but Brian was the cherry on the cake! 🙂

The driver "Gordon" gave us a very pleasant trip with entertaining stories, stops with beautiful panoramas ... and a dream cruise that met our expectations . The schedules were all respected. Thank you, I highly recommend

Good evening, a little difficult to find the meeting point and especially to find the bus company. It should be specified that the meal is included in the day. Very nice experience and fabulous day. Thank you for everything. Yours sincerely, Dominique Jean-Jacques and Sandra

Great activity. Lovely place and Brendon was really informative and funny.

Ticketing was excellent and the scenery was magnificent

EXCELLENT DRIVER AND BREATHTAKING VIEWS

Very punctual tour. The driver was happy and knowledgeable with her commentary and a very good driver. Foggy day but we saw the waterfalls on the way back. Great day and recommend everyone do at least once in their lives.

A very nice experience and well guided tour, our guide told us a lot of interesting facts about the region Many nice photo stops. The boat tour was just great. I would recommend the tour to others.

It was an amazing experience cruising through the beautiful mountains and waterfalls.

It was a good day! Cruise was 2 hours, not 3, but that was adequate. Bus travel was somewhat shorter than advertised. All that aside, it was a very good day. RealNZ was a great provider! Thanks.

Bus driver friendly and informative. Felt very safe with his driving. Majestic scenery and so many interesting land formations on both bus and boatrip.

Amazing nature, good information! Good to go there early in the morning before it gets to crowded. Some hints: - the meeting at 8.30 am is a bit to early, we only left from Te Anau at 9 am. - I didn't know about the included lunch, would have been good to announce it.

The bus driver Scarlet was exyremely informative and made us feel welcome. The boat trip was great even though it was drizzling

It was a unique experience. The bus trip to Milford Sound with stops in between, e.g. Mirror Lakes, was a great opportunity to take some unique photos. The boat trip in Milford Sound in fine weather was great. We sailed very close to a waterfall. Simply fantastic

Great weather, great buys driver who gave out fantastic information.

Bus driver was excellent giving us excellent commentary on the area, cruise was excellent as again was the commentary,

The boat ride, the view, the farm tour and the food was all amazing. Checking in was so simple. No dramas. Just an amazing carefree afternoon. Hope to go again sometime but on the tss earnslaw boat once it's repaired. That would take the experience so much more.

Very unique experience. We enjoyed the beautiful sceneries and the farm tour.

Easy to book online. Checking in was quick. Captains knowledge was informative. Music on board was lovely to listen to.

I had anticipated a BBQ Lunch, but it was nto clear until the guests were segregated that the Farm tour came only with tea. It was a bit embarassing.

Ticketing was was easy. The ship was gear. Very exciting to see the boiler room. Stoking the coal and the engines running. The farm excellent. Quinn was great. Plenty of animals to see and shearing the sheep was interesting. Kim the sheep dog was good too. Overall great experience

I didn't really know what to expect except for a boat ride and farm tour So I was really surprised how wonderful the whole excursion was lovely

Sheep-shearing, boat trip

we were happy with the ticketing with headout. As an older couple not completely savvy with the internet an on line ticketing we found headout easy to use. the Earnslaw cruise to Walter Peak farm was awesome and my husband love going in to the engine room wher you saw the crew putting the coal into the big furnaces.

WE really enjoyed the farm tour and it was also very interesting to be able to watch the engine room of the coal fired steamer.

Everything! I booked half an hour before the experience. I received a phone call while I was waiting in line to see if I had made it to the jetty ready to board..ah yes...surprised at the followup. Like who does that, impressed team! Staff - friendly on the boat and on shore Farm tour - very informative, play time with the animals, i loved the care and safety of the animals from the tour guide (wondering if a translator would be helpful as saw an asian participant touch and pull horns when told not too). Timing was just right..not too long and not too short. Farm show - impressive, exceeded my expectations. Loved the amphitheater. Afternoon tea - wow what...loved it (the fresh scones were like my mum's homemade ones) Boat ride - added to the experience Overall a 10/10 experience and will highly recommend it to colleagues and family.

Excellent boat cruise, with the Captain providing good info. The welcome snacks at the farm were tasty, and warmly served. The shearer (guy from Wales) was absolutely brilliant. He made the visit so entertaining! The animals were adorable, especially the Scottish cattle (the male, Doogle!) and the Alpacas! The shearing demo was brilliant! Overall, a fantastic experience!

Thanks Christian , who is manager at the TSS Earnslaw to give us another time to catch the ship as We were late at 9am...unforgetable with his support. From Hung Pham, HCMC, Vietnam

Well organized, super driver/guide Food could be better Coordination on WhatsApp would be appreciated to avoid misunderstandings for the pick up

Tour was great and tour guide was exceptional. Full of interesting facts and humerous as well. He really made the tour for us. Please thank him. Luke

Absolutely wonderful! It was so nice to be a smaller group for this adventure. The little van was really confortable for the trip. Our guide Collin was awesome. His explanations on the culture and the region made the 5 hours to get there fly by and the stops were great to relax and enjoy fjordland park. 100% recommended.

Beautiful enrobe to Milford. The lady driving the our van was also very sweet
