Milford Sound Christmas Day Cruise Booking (Fiordland - Milford Sound - Cruises - Day and Overnight)
Jon - 7th Dec, 2017
My party of 8 will be at Milford Sound on Christmas Day and would like to take a cruise - however, we are concerned about the weather so do not want to book too far in advance. How busy is Christmas Day, usually? How far in advance would you recommend booking? Thank you!

Hi there, thanks for your query.

Milford Sound is one of the places that can be enhanced by the rain. Rainfall tends to create a series of temporary waterfalls. For this reason, waterfalls are one of the highlights of both your trip to Milford Sound.

Weather aside, this link here will show you a list of operators that advertise with us. Most will have booking calendars that can you guage how busy they might be. Due to having advertisers pay to list on our site, we're unable to promote one over the other, hence directing you to the above link.
