Description
Experience Kiwi farm life with a sheep shearing demo and a Milford Sound cruise. Enjoy a scenic drive, spot wildlife, and learn about the fiord's history.
Start your adventure by making your way to Milford Sound (self-drive) for a two-hour Nature Cruise. Get close to cascading waterfalls, spot seals basking on rocks, and watch for dolphins in the pristine waters while your skipper shares fascinating commentary about the fiord. This will be an 11.15am Nature Cruise.
The spacious vessel offers warm and comfortable indoor cabins as well as spectacular outdoor decks—both are ideal for photography and wildlife watching. Complimentary tea and coffee are served throughout the cruise, and the Southern Discoveries app provides commentary in multiple languages.
The next day back in Te Anau, enjoy an adventure at a family-owned farm, where you’ll be welcomed to explore real farming life. During your hour-long farm experience, watch an entertaining display of working dogs rounding up sheep across the paddocks. See a traditional sheep shearing demonstration, meet friendly farm animals, and enjoy morning tea while your hosts share stories about New Zealand farm life. The farm visit will be at 11am on day two.
