Depart for a
full day excursion to the Milford Sound. Depart
Queenstown and follow the shores of Lake Wakatipu
beneath the towering Remarkables mountain range
before traveling over the sheep dotted Southland
Plains to Te Anau set on the shores of the lake
by the same name, at the gateway to the Fiordland
National Park, now proclaimed a World Heritage
Park.
Travel across open plains and native Beech Forests
before the landscape changes dramatically to the
glaciated U shape valleys. Descend the steep Homer
Tunnel to the spectacular scenery of Milford Sound.
Take a cruise out to the open sea and enjoy a
buffet lunch while you watch Dolphins, Seals and
Penguins as well as mighty waterfalls before returning
to Queenstown, arriving in the late afternoon.
Rest of the evening is at leisure. Overnight at
the hotel.
