A week through Fiordland, the wild, uninhabited south-west of New Zealand, where rainforest-clad mountains plunge into deep, dark fiords. This is expedition cruising of extraordinary grandeur, Mitre Peak and the Sound of Silence, waterfalls beyond counting and near-total solitude. Expect towering granite and hanging valleys, penguins and dolphins, a voyage into one of the last great temperate wildernesses.
Every route we shape is a starting point, not a fixed schedule. Stay a second day where the light is right, move with the weather, or follow a captain to a quieter anchorage. What follows is one considered way to read it; the rest we tailor to you.
