Milford Sound

Milford Sound helicopter flights should be on everyone’s bucket list. Situated on the southwest coast of New Zealand, deep among Fiordland National Park, lies Milford Sound. This spectacular fiord is bounded by forest-clad plunging cliffs, gushing waterfalls and dark inky water.

Its remoteness has kept the unofficial eighth wonder of the world untouched. It is a must-see for even the most avid of travellers. In Milford Sound, you can see the fiord up close and enjoy dramatic views of the world-famous Mitre Peak and the Tasman sea. You may also have the opportunity to see some incredible wildlife such as dolphins and seals.

Due to its remoteness, a four-hour drive, we recommend taking a scenic Milford Sound helicopter flight from Queenstown. A scenic flight option will allow you more time to enjoy the beauty of this pristine wonder from both the ground and the air. You can also add a Milford Sound cruise to your Milford Sound helicopter experience. In the summer, we can also arrange a hike if you feel like lacing up your hiking boots.

Explore Milford Sound with one of our Milford scenic flights. We have several options available, including a Milford Sound Overhead flight, our Milford Sound Heli-Cruise-Heli experience, or the best of the best, our Fiordland’s Finest flight. With this flight, you’ll enjoy our signature experience, which includes all things Milford and Fiordland, plus a landing in our exclusive landing spot, the Earnslaw Burn.
