Fantastic Trip, Fantastic Guide - Fantastic Adventure with a great tour guide. From start to finish Steve was a charismatic and knowledgeable guide who kept us informed and made sure we were well fed all the while being incredibly entertaining. That was before we saw the spectacular sights of Milford Sounds on a rainy day, with thousands of waterfalls opening up, it was awe inspiring. Do not be put off by wet weather for this trip as you get to see Milford Sound in all its glory.

Birds, boats, and automobiles - Views were amazing, Steve is a great tour guide, a veritable fountain of knowledge, just ask a question and sit back and listen! He's also a Kea wrangler, I think he trains and releases them into the wild!

Perfect hassle free way to see Milford Sound - Booked the Premium Milford Sound Small Group Tour, Cruise & Picnic Lunch from Te Anau via Tripadvisor and can honestly say it has been such an excellent way to see Milford Sound and lots of amazing sights along the way. Tour (run by Cheeky Kiwi Tours) started at our closed pick up point in Te Anau at a reasonable time (8:30am) the. We hopped into a comfortable little Mercedes minibus to start our trip. The group was 12-15 in total so not huge, we struck up conversations and got to meet some lovely folk during the day. Our driver (Dayton) gave excellent commentary and was knowledgeable and interesting. As we drove from Te Anau to Milford Sound we stopped at various locations and picturesque spots along the way just long enough to get photos and take in the beauty. Once at the Fiordland waterside we received our packed lunch (plentiful) and hopped aboard Milford Cruise - Milford Explorer. This was a smaller vessel to others at the dock but this again made for a more intimate experience. It was ample in size and comfort for the passengers carried and there was plentiful supply of hot beverages to keep you warm on a wet day. The captain and crew were knowledgeable and took the time to show us some really amazing sights including dolphins and seals. Tour ended with the journey back to Te Anau and drop off as necessary. I would highly recommend Cheeky Kiwi Tours to anyone looking to visit Milford Sound and the Fiordland reserve.

Great experience in the Fiordland (: - Great experience, thanks to our guide Steve who was really passionate and shared so much about Milford Sound, the Fiordland, and New Zealand as a whole with us. We never felt like we were being rushed, and were able to stop at many scenic spots to take photos and learn more about NZ from Steve! We even got to meet two rare Kea birds up close. Great communication and reminders of the tour as well.

Lovely guide, lovely itinerary, lovely country - Absolutely fantastic tour led by a wonderful man named Steve! From the get go, He was very punctual with the pickup. All through the drive, Steve was an awesome conversationalist, willing to share all the information he had about the wonderful Milford Sound area. He also made sure to stop at pretty phototaking sights and was super patient; we always felt like we had so much time to appreciate the beautiful nature of NZ. The itinerary was well-planned and well executed by Steve! The boat ride was also very nice - similarly the captain stopped at some very scenic spots to allow us to take in the magnificent fjords. There was no queuing or aimless waiting around, nor were we made to feel rushed or cramped with a whole lot of people. At the end, Steve even went out of the way to drop us at the doorstep of our BNB . I highly recommend this from Cheeky Kiwi.. even better if you got Steve, but i’m sure their other guides are like him too! This package allowed us to truly appreciate the beauty of NZ.. lovely country with lovely people!

It was great to be on a... - It was more enjoyable to be on a tour and not have to do the driving or worry about parking. Our driver shared a lot of interesting information during the drive. The cruise was great, just being there taking in the wonderful scenery and sights. We had a good sack lunch to enjoy. Plenty of stops to get out and places to see during the drive to and from the park.
