What people love about Milford Sound Tours
- NZ Adventure 17 Day
Absolutely amazing tour with 2 excellent tour leaders in Ben and James. Both were very informative, caring and always made sure we got to places on time and had the best experiences!
- NZ Adventure 17 Day
Heading home from my 17 day New Zealand trip with Intro and I cannot believe how quickly it has gone! It has been an awesome experience from day 1 with so many amazing activities. Highlights have been swimming in natural hot pools, hiking awe-inspiring landscapes, kayaking Lake Wanaka and experiencing Maori culture. Group leaders James and Ben were both top guys, bringing the group together and making sure everything ran smoothly. Following this trip I am planning to book future trips with Intro.

Brilliant trip, plenty of incredible sights to see and fun activities to do. Absolutely worth travelling to the other side of the world to see what New Zealand has to offer. Big shout out to Sean our group leader who absolutely smashed it, always on the ball with keeping everyone up to date on what the days consist of and brought a great energy to the group.

"Amazing your. Super professional and well organized. Packs a lot into 7 days but it was perfect for people trying to pack a lot in and see a lot in a short amount of time. Tegan was the best!!! Knew so much and spoke so passionately about New Zealand and Māori culture. Was so nice to learn. And she is just the best
