We had a wonderful time kayaking the Sound with our guide for 5 hours. Roscoe's operation is very professional and organized. We felt quite safe and greatly enjoyed our time on the water.

My guide was Ricky, and let me just say he was awesome. Besides being hilarious and entertaining he used his guiding powers to summon sea lions AND dolphins to within an arm's reach. It truly was such a wonderful experience and well worth the money. I did the sunrises classic. Rosco's is also super organized... They provide you with all... More

I was a bit concerned about how I would fare on this kayak trip as it looked like a long trip (5 hours) and I have really only done sea/surf kayaking before which I found pretty exhausting. As it turns out however, it was not strenuous at all. There is a reasonable amount of setup / changing / teaching so... More

We went kayaking in the worst weather, raining foggy and very very cold but it was amazing and a wonderful experience. Rosco’s Milford Kayaks supplied enough gear to make sure we were warm throughout our tour and our guide was very informative.

This is a great way to experience Milford Sound. Our group -- three kayaks including the guide --took the water taxi out to Deep Water basin and then kayaked 16km back to base. That's a pretty good distance, and our arms were rather tired by the end -- be advised that this outing requires a decent bit of effort. Along... More

My sister and I (both in our twenties) took the Sunriser Classic tour, led by Mali. Our group totaled just 3 kayaks. It rained start to finish, but was one of the best parts of our trip! What an amazing way to see the Sound--waterfalls, seal pup, clouds/mist and all. We learned so much from Mali about the unique environs... More

My husband wanted to do the Sunriser Classic, a 5-hour paddle. I wasn't sure I was up to it, but I went along with his wishes as seeing Milford Sound was my idea. I assembled the supplies on the list, and we left Te Anau at 5:30 a.m. to make our 8:00 departure. Rosco's provided essential kayaking clothing and gear,... More

Let me start by saying - this is definatley the ONLY way to see Milford Sound! After arriving in Te Anau and deciding between a cruise or kayak tour, we were so glad that we chose the kayak tour. We did the Stirling Sunrise (i think thats what it was called), we took a boat out past Stirling Falls and... More

We booked the Day Safari trip with the pick up from the hotel in Te Anau. It was one of the best experiences in NZ. You could feel that the guide really loves this region and his job. He shared interesting details with us. On our way there and back we made several stops at interesting points (mirror lakes, the... More
