Real Journey's Discovery Cruises provide a unique opportunity to explore remote southern New Zealand. These multi-day cruises deliver an experience unlike any other – breathtaking scenery, fascinating history, wildlife encounters along with the camaraderie of fellow travellers. Fiordland National Park and Stewart Island have much to offer adventurers of all ages and we hope you will join us on a voyage of discovery!
There is no better way to experience Fiordland and Stewart Island than cruising during the winter season when the weather is at its most settled. Their vessel, the Milford Wanderer, designed along the lines of a traditional trading scow, provides the ideal way to explore this spectacular part of the world.

In Fiordland, they offer you two cruise options:
Dusky Sound Discovery Cruise (5 days)

Preservation Inlet Discovery Cruise (7 days)
You will enjoy all the highlights of the Dusky Sound Discovery Cruise and then journey further south to Chalky and Preservation Inlets. With this extended seven day cruise option a one way helicopter transfer between West Arm and Preservation Inlet increases the exploration time.
