New Zealand, Milford Sound

Milford Sound is spectacular. We did an afternoon boat trip along the fiord with Cruising Milford Sound which was cheaper at $40 than the bigger boats but saw all the same sights. All the companies charge more around the middle of the day when most people go so you need to get there early or stay later to pay less. We had good weather but people say when it is raining it is even more beautiful with hundreds of waterfalls tumbling off the cliffs. We think it would be better to go in the morning if you can make it as the sun was in our eyes the whole way out and would be better for the pics with it behind you.
