What an experience!!! This was the highlight of our trip. Our Pilot and Copilot Michael and Marcus?? (Hope I got those right) were wonderful, they pointed out so many things while on the flight back to Queenstown, flew us over many glaciers, they were super friendly and made the experience a once in a lifetime trip. I would recommend this to every single person who does the Milford Sound bus trip. The Price was great for the experience we received and the views!

This was a smooth flight with one of the most beautiful views I’ve seen. Our pilot was very friendly and provided valuable information about the sights throughout this scenic flight. It was worth the price we paid.

Amazing experience of a lifetime! Incredible views the whole way and very smooth ride. It was a small plane so everyone had a window seat and the pilot Dan did a great job. He helped make it a very memorable experience and had good commentary along the way. We went as a surprise for my girlfriend’s 30th birthday and he offered to take pictures of us in front of the plane as soon as we got to it and asked if one of us wants to sit up front.
Fun and scenic

It was $1,100 NZD for two people leaving Milford Sound and heading to Queenstown. Our pilot Josh was funny, there was another pilot travelling on the flight with us (he’s the one that drove us to our hotel afterwards). Both were nice and entertaining, the scenery was gorgeous and there was some additional commentary from the pilot. Saw a lord of the rings filming location so that was a bonus. Overall it was a fun and spontaneous experience for us. There was a little bit of turbulence due to wind but the pilot and aircraft handled it well. About 45 minutes overall and then we were dropped off back at our hotel afterwards which was cool.

Amazing experience coming back via chartered plane from Milford sound to Queenstown. The landscape is just Outta this world and the views are mesmerizing. Micheal the pilot was awesome as he explained all major sights during the flight and was ever so patient with pictures and explained all security procedures nicely. A must do!

Had an amazing flight back from Milford Sound with Josh, we initially didn't plan to fly back and spend the extra $ but it was so worth it! Craig referred us on our RealNz bus tour which was also amazing!

Our flight from Milford Sound back to Queenstown was absolutely incredible and easily one of the highlights of our trip! Luke, our pilot, was amazing! He so professional, personable, and incredibly knowledgeable, which made us feel completely at ease the whole time. The flight itself was unreal! About 45 minutes, super smooth, comfortable, and honestly so much fun. There was only 6 of us on the plane. The views were absolutely breathtaking the entire way, and it’s such a unique way to experience the landscape. We couldn’t stop smiling the whole time! Would 100% recommend this experience, it’s an absolute must-do!
