Week 2 Day 4 Activity 1: Planes, Trains and Automobiles

Arguably, one of the most dramatic and spectacular (beautiful) places to visit in New Zealand is Milford Sound. It has been referred to as the ‘eighth wonder of the world.’ It is a beautiful fiord (steep valley) that was formed when big pieces of ice (glaciers) melted. The melted glaciers created a beautiful river that is surrounded by dramatic cliffs and snow-capped mountains. People who visit Milford Sound are able to take a boat cruise through the middle of the fiord, walk around the area on the Milford Track or fly above the fiord as part of a private helicopter tour.Let’s imagine that you had the chance to visit Milford Sound by boat, foot (walking) or air (helicopter). Which option would you prefer?
I would like to go there and have a helicopter tour mainly because I would love to go in a helicopter ride. The fiord will be interesting to go there as well.

    I agree with you that touring the Milford Sounds by helicopter would be amazing. You would be able to get a full view of everything there is to see and you would be able to set down at different locations that take your interest.

    What do you think it would feel like being inside a helicopter and flying over the water and the mountains. Would it scare you?

    Ngā mihi,
