KEY POINTS:
Visitors can experience Milford Sound in an intimate and interactive way on the encounter nature cruise.
The small luxury cruise offers unobstructed views at all times, and a guide provides information on the area's history, geology, wildlife and flora.
The boat visits places where no other cruises go, and goes under powerful waterfalls for a close-up view of the sheer cliffs.
