Truly amazing trip to Milford Sounds! The scenic flight into Milford sounds was out of this world, we flew over lakes, mountains and Glaciers! The pilots were very professional, friendly and knowledgeable. They made the whole trip wonderful. James was our pilot and took good care of us, he was always happy to answer any questions we had. The day out with Glenorchy Air is money well spent! You’re in and out of Milford sounds with a cruise in 4 hours. This is definitely better than spending endless hours on a coach. I would highly recommend to anyone wanting to have a truly unique and once in a life time experience in Queenstown!

We took the Milford Sound and Glaciers: Fly/Cruise/Fly trip. Luke was our pilot and he was not only a safety-conscious and talented pilot, but his commentary as we flew back and forth was amusing and very informative. He made sure we got to where we needed to go and we always felt safe. While we enjoyed Milford Sound, the true highlight was the breathtaking flights over the mountains!! The snow-capped peaks with their jagged edges cannot adequately be described. This is a must-see trip!

We booked our trip with Glenorchy Air with much anticipation of the views, the service and the experience. Our pilot, Jim, the Glenorchy staff, and the Milford Sound boat captain helped surpass all our expectations. Jim was outstanding, educating us at the proper moments along our flight, helping take pictures once at Milford Sound, and really just paving the way for us to enjoy every moment of our trip. From punctual pick-up (he even adjusted the location to make it more convenient for us), to making us feel comfortable throughout the flight, Jim was a top notch professional. Our Family will remember the flight and boat ride in Milford Sound as one of our best trips … good stuff!

We did the flight to Milford Sound & back on 9/9/19 for our 31st wedding anniversary. Feels very surreal now. Milford Sound was gorgeous but the flight there & back was out of this world. What takes approx 5 hrs each way by bus, took us 40 scenic mins each way through snow capped mountains, over glaciers, lakes & magnificent coast line. Exceptional staff. Special mention to (Luke) our young bus driver who is also a pilot, and of course our own pilot (Will) who made us feel completely at ease & safe at all times … great sense of humour & lots of knowledge of movies shot in the area (Lord of the Rings etc). We couldn’t have asked for better service or a better day weather wise. We definitely recommend Glenorchy Air. From someone whose anxiety would have once stopped me from enjoying this, my husband & I can now tick it off as a bucket list experience!
