Enjoy the spectacle of sheer mountains rising vertically from the depths below, waterfalls dropping 160m into the fjord, seals, dolphins, and Maori legends.After check-in at the Pure Milford counter, the adventure begins. Stepping onto the three-deck catamaran, you'll be taken the length of the fjord to the Tasman Sea and back. Learn about local Maori Legends and why Captain Cook failed to discover Milford Sound during a full commentary. See seals from meters away, the occasional bottlenose dolphin, plus the rare Fiordland Crested Penguin if you're lucky.
