Jucy Cruise Milford Sound
Why plain sail, when you can JUCY Cruise the Milford Sound! Join us aboard the Maiden of Milford.
Milford Sound is one of the world’s most stunning locations, with its towering cliffs and peaks – including the much photographed, iconic Mitre Peak; rising more than a kilometre straight out of the sea.
Waterfalls cascade into the fiord and a luxuriant rainforest clings to sheer rock faces in this exceptional place. Join us aboard the Maiden of Milford, our uncrowded 200 seat catamaran spread across three spacious levels, where you will experience unlimited close-up viewing of waterfalls, wildlife and rainforest.
We provide four cruise departures per day during summer and three in the winter. Coach tours including our 5-star luxury option from Queenstown and smaller intimate coaches from Te Anau are available, as well as flight transfers from Queenstown.
Extensive food options are available on board to suit all tastebuds, including our very own Pita Pit franchise, Indian cuisine and exclusive–to–JUCY, Pedros gourmet NZ lamb. We offer free tea and hot water and espresso coffee is available to purchase. Our JUCY crew are trained to add that extra friendly service making your customers journey an extra special experience.

We went for the day trip to Milford Sound on Jucy Cruise Vista, Sunday 19th August.
Excellent commentary by Carl our driver, very informative and made the journey whiz by. Great photo stops en route. Reached MS in good time. Milford Sound cruise was stunning and we were lucky enough to see a pod of dolphins, and seals on rocks. Extremely well organised coach trip and cruise, a great day!
Hi Rebecca, Colin & Leo,
Thanks for taking the time to leave a review! We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your JUCY Cruise with us.
How lucky that you got to see a pod of dolphins and seals! We hope to welcome you back again soon on your next adventure.
Cheers,

Prompt collection from our camp site.
Extremely knowledgeable and entertaining coach driver. The cruise itself was fantastic. 3 dolphins provided some early excitement as they were playing at the marina entrance. We experienced some spectacular scenery as the waterfalls were cascading down the rock faces in full flow due to some previous rainfall which petered out as the cruise went on. On the return coach journey a pair of kea were posing for photographs as the traffic queued for the traffic lights to change at the road tunnel entrance. This is a must-do excursion for anyone visiting the locality and value for money.
Hi Michael,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us! It sounds like you had a truly memorable time and I'm glad to hear that you found our cruise valuable.
I look forward to welcoming you back to our Milford Sound Cruise again soon.
Thanks,

The Jucy cruise gets 10 points!
We took the earliest cruise and if you drive a Jucy vehicle driver gets half price off. Boat was not crowded at all (maybe because it was the early cruise). Staff was friendly and the captain's commentary as much entertaining as it as informative. We made several stops not only to view the panorama but also we got to see seals and penguins very close up! Before we returned to the harbour we took a shower in the greatest waterfall there which was very cold but worth it. As a special offer we got a breakfast cake and orange juice free, complimentary tea is always included. Can only recommend this cruise!
Hi Rebekka
Thank you for recommending our JUCY Cruise! It sounds like a beautiful day and lucky you seeing the beautiful seals and penguins close up!
We're so happy that you enjoyed your day aboard and we hope to see you again nex time!

The landscape was beautiful.
The tour by Jucy was quite fun because of the captain. The way to Milford Sound is long for what we got to see, due to the bad weather conditions.
Hey Alexander
We're so happy to hear that you had a fun time on our cruise tour and our captain helped make this even better!
Sorry to hear about the bad weather conditions, such a shame.
We hope that you can come back again one day soon and get the best weather possible!
Thanks!

Good trip.
Very poor breakfast on the 9:30am cruise. Not recommended when it is a cloudy day.
Hi Barbara,
Bummer to hear the weather didn't turn out during your trip...hoping it's full of sunshine your next cruise around beautiful Milford Sound!

We went on the morning cruise.
Breakfast was okay. Crew was nice. We had bad weather but the cruise was still nice. Boat stopped twice under the waterfalls and by some seals.
Hey Jaroslav,
That's so special you were able to spot some seals! Even on a cloudy day, Milford Sound has been known to impress!
Best,

This is an amazing place to be - I came back to see the Sound again.
It was a rainy day but I think it would be better. I stood at the front of the boat and felt the rain from the waterfalls.
Hi Navina,
Sounds pristine! See you next time!

Strong winds made it impossible to hear the quiet commentary from the captain on the return leg.

Wrap up warm.
Stunning scenery. Free tea and coffee. Helpful staff. You can drive to Milford Sound and park - lots of space and then catch the boat there.
Pretty much a perfect day, eh!?
Thanks Viki.

We choose Jucy Cruise Milford Sound as the driver get half price (t&c).
We went there early in the morning for the 1st cruise, sail at 8.55 a.m. Be there by 8.20 a.m. and prepare to park and walk about 15 minutes to the terminal. Jucy Cruise provide brunch and we took the vegetarian set. There are not so many people in the ship during our cruise and it is a bonus for us to roam around freely and take pictures. Overall, a good experience and good staff especially the captain who continuous providing info during the cruise.
Really great to hear the experience was everything you were looking for, Hafez. Until next time...

Lucky to have decent weather on our trip out to Milford Sounds.
Free tea and coffee available on board...best to bring your own snacks as food sold on board is slightly pricey.
Hey Joanne,
Who doesn't like a nice cup of tea or coffee while looking at the sites of Milford Sound? Beautiful...
Hoping to see you next time!

Great price in comparison to all of the other cruises and with a JUCY van it was half price for the driver.
It goes the same route as all of the other boats, so would highly recommend. The staff were very friendly and some free refreshments were provided.
Cheers, Chris! Cruise on...

Amazing view surrounded by the fiords.
Clear / moody weather, Milford Sound leaves its beauty for you to enjoy. Definitely a worth $45 for the cruise. Thanks Jucy!

We have done it with Jucy.
It was amazing to see all these beautiful mountains and the waterfalls. We had heavy rain on our tour, but we would still recommend it. You get nice information about the Milford Sound area on your cruise. I just gave 8 points as the price was a little much.

It did not stop raining the whole time but we still had a great time.
The mist did spoil the views though - just bad timing.

$45 is really okay.
But you have to be lucky with the weather. Have seen some nicer views, so a little bit disappointed. Not worth paying more for a different cruise!
