New Zealand Adventure: There and Back Again
Once I reached Milford Sound within the park, I boarded a boat and spent several hours cruising through the sound, passing breathtaking scenery, towering mountains, and many waterfalls. Milford Sound is best viewed from the water, as the park offers multiple cruise options daily that take visitors out into the sound en route to the open sea, passing by towering mountains along the way that are filled with waterfalls.
