Passeios por Fiordland National Park

we had a great experience and our tour guide Jason was very helpful throughout the whole trip and we had so many amazing experiences, will definitely recommend cheeky kiwi to our friends and families.

The Doubtful Sound Wilderness Day tour is a breathtaking escape into one of New Zealand’s most remote and pristine landscapes. While the scenery is undoubtedly world-class, our guide, Peanut, truly made the day exceptional. From the moment we boarded, Peanut’s expert driving and deep knowledge of the Fiordland wilderness were on full display. Navigating the steep Wilmot Pass was seamless, and his commentary provided fascinating insights into the region's unique ecology and history. What set the experience apart, however, was his infectious humor; he kept the entire group laughing and engaged throughout the long journey. The wildlife encounters were the ultimate highlight. Thanks to Peanut’s keen eyes and timing, we were treated to rare sightings of playful dolphins dancing near the boat and seals basking on the rugged rocks. For a day filled with laughter, incredible expertise, and the silent majesty of the "Sound of Silence," this tour is an absolute must-do

It was a really nice experience and the guide is really friendly, knowledgeable, and humorous :) The bus transportation was on time, we weren’t rushed at every landmark, and we took lots of pictures!

Sehr schöne Landschaft, die 12 Stunden Fahrt wert ist.

My partner and I took the Coach-Cruise-Fly package and we are so grateful we have made the right decision. Very experienced coach guide told us a lot about places we passed by and animals we encountered. Cruise boat driver steering very close to shore to help us spot penguins and seals, and let us have some fun bathing under the waterfall. The flight back was very exciting as we were only meters above the peaks below. Milford Sound on sea and in air are completely different experiences. Highly recommend this tour.

Here's the translation for your new message: --- We happened to have clear skies on the day we went. Although we didn't catch the spectacular sight of a thousand waterfalls in full flow, it was still a very worthwhile trip — at least four or five waterfalls are "open for business" year-round. Along the way, we also stopped at several scenic spots, and the bus driver was quite witty and humorous, giving us introductions to the various activities available. Highly recommended.

I had a reservation for a specific time slot, so I presented my mobile voucher at the counter to check in. During the shuttle transfer, a short video was played, giving a welcoming feeling and an exciting sense that a fantasy world was about to unfold! The guide led everyone on a tour of the park. It's crucial to keep up and not wander off or linger, as you need to seize the time to enjoy the scenery or take photos; once you miss something, there's no going back. The guide spoke entirely in English, but it didn't matter if I didn't understand all the explanations; I still had a great time! The guide even helped with photos! The last stop was a restaurant and bar, where everyone could choose one free drink. I opted for the only non-alcoholic option, ginger ale, which was a large, delicious, and filling drink! I really wanted to sit by the warm fireplace for an hour or two, but unfortunately, we only had a few brief minutes (maybe half an hour, or even less, I've forgotten a bit). Besides the free drink, there was also self-serve coffee available. Upon leaving the park, everyone received a souvenir-shaped cup. P.S.: Before entering the park, the guide asked if anyone didn't know why they were there. I really wanted to raise my hand because I hadn't even seen the related movies or books. When planning the itinerary, I even considered skipping this man-made attraction to save some travel expenses, but I'm so glad I came! The natural scenery is beautiful, and the architecture, decorations, and various objects are all exquisitely crafted, as if they were naturally formed! Of course, they are also meticulously maintained! It's definitely worth a visit!

The starry sky is beautiful, and the weather isn't too cold. If you come to Tekapo, I highly recommend it. However, the clouds became a bit thick later, and the moon was a bit bright, affecting the stars. I suggest staying two nights to have a better chance of seeing the stars.
