Milford Sound Vacations, Milford Sound Vacation Reviews, Tourism Guide

Milford Sound is probably the most famous of all the New Zealand places to visit. As such it has been made a World Heritage site. Many photographers have tried to do the area justice with their cameras but seeing it in person is truly breathtaking and awe inspiring.

Though called a sound it is in fact a true fiord carved out of the rock by ice glaciers thousands of years before. It is in a very isolated area and has only one road that will take you to the fjord. Once there you can step aboard a boat to sail out and see Mitre peak or the many waterfalls that flow over the cliffs. The rare Fiordland Crested penguins and Fiordland dolphins can sometimes be in the area.
