Our guide to Doubtful Sound Wilderness Cruise from Queenstown

Getting to Doubtful Sound is an adventure in itself - with no direct road access, the only way you can to get there is by a cruise across Lake Manapouri and a coach trip over Wilmot Pass!

This adventure begins back in Queenstown and a journey along the shores of Lake Wakatipu through the rolling countryside to Pearl Harbour, Manapouri.

Here, board the Real Journeys vessel for a cruise across picturesque Lake Manapouri to West Arm. A coach then takes you across the alpine route of Wilmot Pass through some of Fiordland's most dense rainforest.

Upon reaching Deep Cove, board the vessel  Fiordland Navigator for a 3 hour cruise on serene and isolated Doubtful Sound. View waterfalls, rainforest, mountains, fur seals basking on the rocks, resident pods of bottlenose dolphins and rare Fiordland Crested Penguins.
