As you fly over the Fiordland National Park, you will begin to glimpse the stunning waterfalls, lush forests, and dark waters for which Milford Sound is famous. The highlight of this scenic flight is the actual flyover of Milford Sound, where you will see the iconic Mitre Peak and Stirling Falls, just some of the iconic landmarks that make this place so special. After flying the length of the sound and out over the Tasman Sea, you will return to Queenstown via the Sutherland Falls.

A Milford Sound Scenic Flight from Queenstown is the perfect way to experience the beauty of Milford Sound if you are restricted on time, or if you are simply looking for a unique perspective of this famous New Zealand destination.
