超棒

满员18人的小团,我们当天只3个人,van上的座位随便坐,像是包车了。除了峡湾游船以外,来回路上还有三四个点司机会停下来让我们走走玩玩。路上看到了此次新西兰之行最好看的鲁冰花。司机很准时也很友好。物超所值!

性价比高

因为山上下雪,原本预定的那天景区关闭,但是没有及时邮件通知我们,还是YHA前台提醒才知道,协调后给我们改为第二天,同时在确认第二天可出行后发邮件来确认了。第二天天气晴好,司机一路介绍景点非常尽责,游船是比较舒适的,另加10元的野餐盒是在船上领取的,包含1个三明治、1个苹果、1瓶水、1包曲奇饼、1包坚果、1包饼干、1条巧克力,还是蛮不错的。早上是8点出发,沿途看了几个景点,游船2小时15分,大概下午3点45回到蒂阿瑙,挺满意的。

紐西蘭必訪的景點

一日遊的行程有專車到住宿的地方接送,沿途司機會解說導覽,路途中的景點也都會停靠參觀。行駛峽灣的船很大艘,載運的人不多,不會擁擠,能在船艙內或外欣賞峽灣的美景,船上有熱咖啡和熱可可,可額外加訂餐盒。船上的船員會口說導覽,途中會開到瀑布的下方,是相當特別的體驗,整體算是值得推薦的活動!

Awesome experience

Prompt pick up by friendly, knowledgeable and experienced guide. The mini van was in great condition and very comfortable. The guide made a few stops, pointing out places, plants, geographical facts along the way and gave plenty of photo opportunities. The cruise on Milford Sound was fabulous. We were met by friendly staff, they gave a great tour. The boat was clean and spacious. After the cruise the mini van was waiting and we enjoyed another good journey home. Definitely recommend this trip!
