It was a wonderful experience very family friendly. We had to change the timing of our cruise on the day, however the staff was so flexible and helpful. Really enjoyable experience. Stunning views! Highly recommend.

This was the earliest departure at 8.50 which is great. Left Te Anau at 5.45 and easily made the journey even in very wet and rainy conditions. Leaving early, you miss all the traffic and busses. Plenty of time to stop along the way and take photos. Cruise was amazing, great staff and the rain ensured plenty of waterfalls cascading down the mountains. Early cruise also meant numbers of passengers was not too many. Plenty of seats and room both in and outdoors. Weather didn't take away from the experience at all. Very informative and gave plenty of time to photograph all the sights Highly recommend.

Jeoff's customer service is top notch. Tour was informative and time given for the stops to experience the Milford Sound were invaluable.

This was a great experience and well worth the money. We got very close to seals and even got soaked by a waterfall! People onboard were friendly and we got to move around and sit in the bow. These ships are perfect to traverse the fjords.

We really appreciated being on a less-crowded boat ... thank you for providing this opportunity. We especially loved being able to go so close to the sides of the cliff faces ... WOW!!!!

Great intimate tour on a smaller cruise that meant it was easy to move around and see better the views that we so wanted to see in Milford. Great Captain who was personable and chatted easily with my husband about his job.

Great cruise on Milford Sound. Staff were helpful and informative, the boat wasn't packed so there was lots of space to move around and see the view and the experience was topped off by the boat slowing to see a pod of dolphins, seals and penguins. We are traveling with two young kids and the crew were really friendly to them and gave them pencils and coloring sheets to do. A great two hours and well worth the money.
