Fiordland Explored: Doubtful & Dusky Sound Cruises
Come aboard 18-guest Heritage Explorer to discover two of the most remote and spectacular of Fiordland's destinations: Doubtful and Dusky Sounds. Along the way, experience significant historical and conservation sites, seek endemic wildlife and enjoy guided activities by a New Zealand-based crew.
Discover Fiordland’s iconic Doubtful and Dusky Sounds—home to significant historical and conservation sites in New Zealand. This special expedition pairs two of the most remote and spectacular of Fiordland’s destinations (select departures focus entirely on Dusky Sound).
In this compact vacation by sea, explore World Heritage Area Dusky Sound, one of Fiordland’s largest fiords some 25 miles (40km) long and studded with more than 350 islands. Equally impressive, New Zealand’s deepest fiord Doubtful Sound boasts lush rainforests, towering waterfalls and resident populations of New Zealand fur seals and rare Fiordland crested penguins.
Established in 1952, New Zealand’s Fiordland National Park is rich in endemic wildlife, natural history, geology, historical firsts and conservation projects. Expect waterfalls, streams, rivers and fiords enveloped with misty veils that come and go, revealing steep gradients of mountain peaks and sheltered valleys.
Cruise aboard 18-guest Heritage Explorer, a yacht that’s spacious enough for private moments but also encourages making newfound friends. This New Zealand-born ship, with a family-run Kiwi crew and guides, offers kayaks, a hydraulic aft platform, sophisticated food, regional libations, and cabins for solo and paired travelers. Tap into the passion of the biologists, botanists and adventurers that have designed her itineraries that include regular opportunities for citizen science. She is an AdventureSmith favorite for private charter cruises due to her cozy, inviting feel and size.

Fiordland Explored: Cruising Fiordland's Iconic Doubtful & Dusky Sounds (Northbound) Itinerary
Sail the south-central fiords from Dusky Sound to Doubtful Sound, with included transfers (helicopter and coach bus) to start and end in Te Anau.
Meet with your fellow expeditioners in Te Anau, then take in the grand views and awe-inspiring scenery as you enjoy a spectacular helicopter transfer to join the ship in Dusky Sound. The captain and expedition leader will be waiting to welcome you aboard the ship and show you to your cabin. Settle into life aboard before you set sail along the scenic waterways of Supper Cove at the very head of Dusky Sound and find a suitable anchorage to enjoy your first evening aboard.
Visit Luncheon Cove on Anchor Island, where the first European boat was built in New Zealand. Take a short walk or explore along the coastline and be amazed by the birdlife with South Island saddleback, robins, yellowhead and parakeets in abundance on the island thanks to its predator-free status. It was on nearby Pigeon Island that pioneering conservationist Richard Henry was based during his time in Dusky Sound. At Astronomer’s Point there may be the opportunity to walk in the footsteps of Captain Cook and his astronomer William Wales, as it was here that the HMS Resolution was moored during their time in Dusky Sound. Your expedition cruise through Dusky Sound visits some of the most significant historical and conservation sites in New Zealand, as well as offering some of the most majestic scenery in New Zealand as you sail deep into the heart of Fiordland.
Today, explore your way through the waters of Breaksea Sound and Acheron Passage. Your time here may include venturing into Wet Jacket Arm where the crew of Cook’s HMS Resolution ended up with wet jackets during their survey work. It is also the site where moose were released, and last seen, in New Zealand. You might like to try your luck fishing for tonight’s dinner, or take the kayaks for a shoreline exploration. Resolution Island is separated from the mainland by the scenic waters of Acheron Passage and at the southern end of the passage you enter Dusky Sound. Be sure to be on the lookout for resident bottlenose dolphins.
After a quiet night surrounded by the nature and wilderness of Fiordland, sail along the Fiordland coast towards the extensive protected waters that are Breaksea and Doubtful Sounds, join your naturalists on deck to spot seabirds including the majestic wandering and buller’s albatross. Breaksea Island guards the entrance to Breaksea Sound, it was here that the first successful island rat eradication program was completed and today Breaksea Island is a protected nature reserve of great significance to the many endangered species which call the island home.
Continue your explorations of the most spectacular scenery in all of Fiordland—Doubtful Sound, or the ‘sound of silence’ as it’s also known. Spanning some staggering 25 miles (40km) and holding the title as New Zealand’s deepest fiord, Doubtful Sound with its cloud-scraping, wilderness-cloaked mountains, sheer stone cliffs, waterfalls, inlets, quiet coves and wildlife presents nature on a scale so grand it’s off the chart.
This morning, the ship sails along the scenic waterways of Doubtful Sound. It is the last opportunity for you to bask in the majesty of the fiords. After a final breakfast and farewells, head ashore at Deep Cove where a transfer to Te Anau awaits, via the Wilmot Pass and Lake Manapouri.

Undiscovered Dusky Sound: Cruising Remote Fiordland Itinerary
Sail the southernmost fiords, focusing on Dusky Sound and Breaksea Sound, with included transfers (round-trip by helicopter) to start and end in Te Anau.
Meet with your fellow expeditioners in Te Anau, then take in the grand views and awe-inspiring scenery as you enjoy a spectacular helicopter transfer to Supper Cove at the very head of Dusky Sound (times and meeting point will be confirmed with your voyage documents). Your captain and expedition leader will be waiting to welcome you aboard the ship and show you to your cabin. Settle into life on board before you set sail alongside Cooper, Long and Indian Islands before finding a suitable anchorage to enjoy your first evening aboard.
After a quiet night aboard surrounded by the nature and wilderness of Fiordland, continue your explorations among some of the most majestic scenery in New Zealand. You have 2 days to explore, discover and experience the rich history, wilderness, wildlife and grand scale scenery of Fiordland’s iconic Dusky Sound. Your voyage will visit and explore some of the most significant historical and conservation sites in New Zealand. You’ll marvel at the ever-changing scenery as you sail deep into the heart of Fiordland.
During your time here, plan to walk in the footsteps of Captain Cook and astronomer William Wales at Astronomer’s Point, the site of a temporary observatory in Pickersgill Harbor, where New Zealand became the most accurately located place on the globe when the HMS Resolution was moored here in 1773. Your explorations also expect to include predator-free Anchor Island, home to half of the world’s population of Kākāpō and Little Spotted Kiwi, and location of historic Luncheon Cove and a number of New Zealand firsts. These include New Zealand’s first sealing gang, the building of New Zealand’s first European homestead and first European designed ship, the 52-foot (16m) Providence built here and launched in 1795.
On nearby Pigeon Island, you will learn about the history of Richard Henry and his pioneering live transfer of birds to island refuges–an international first in wildlife conservation. While his attempts were unsuccessful due to stoats swimming over to the island, it is heartening to learn the island is now pest-free and a sanctuary for native birdlife, with Henry’s vision fulfilled.
A navigation through Acheron Passage today, which separates Resolution Island from the mainland, is sure to be one of the highlights of your time in Fiordland. This iconic scenic waterway is an area where the resident bottlenose dolphins are often spotted. Your explorations here may include venturing into Wet Jacket Arm, where the crew of Cook’s HMS Resolution ended up with wet jackets during their survey work. It is also the sight where moose were released, and last seen, in New Zealand.
The extensive sheltered waters of scenic Breaksea Sound, initially scouted for sheep farming suitability by early settlers in the 1850s, is also the location of Breaksea Island, an iconic site in New Zealand conservation history as one of the first large islands declared rat-free in 1988 and now home to many endangered species. This afternoon you might like to try your luck fishing for tonight’s dinner, or take the kayaks for a shoreline exploration.
This morning, the ship returns to Supper Cove where you’ll enjoy a last opportunity to bask in the majesty of the fiords during breakfast, before boarding your scenic helicopter transfer back to Te Anau.

Please read our Heritage Explorer ship review below then contact our small ship cruise experts to compare the Heritage Explorer with other small cruise ships and yachts offering New Zealand small ship cruises, including private charter cruises.
Choose the Heritage Explorer for a ship purpose-built by Kiwis to cruise New Zealand. This spacious yacht offers room to stretch out, and the intimate group size to encourage newfound friendships. Her hydraulic aft ramp provides a stable, level means to get on and off the ship. And her optional, private al fresco dining is a great way to enjoy her elevated onboard cuisine and celebrated regional wines. Lastly, her two solo cabins offer the uncommon opportunity to travel without paying a solo supplement.
Design & Sustainability
Built in 2004 by renowned wooden boat building company Carey's Boatyard in Picton, New Zealand, the Heritage Explorer is purpose-built for small group expedition cruising among New Zealand's magical fjords. The design mirrors the ethos of operator Heritage Expeditions' conservation-minded approach to cruising, which they've been sharing with travelers since 1984. This yacht delivers both comfort and big adventure via her dual 653-horsepower engines, bow thrusters, fin stabilizers and sound-conscious twin generators.
Onboard Facilities
Heritage Explorer offers a balance of private spaces and engaging common areas, all on a spacious yacht for only 18 guests. WiFi and an in-room satellite phone are available at added cost, and shared binoculars are available upon request. Warm wood accents, wide staircases, colorful framed artwork, brimming bookshelves, coffee and tea stations, walls of windows, and plush seating and floors make this yacht feel like home. The Bridge invites guests to sit alongside the captain, or stand outside under cover and watch for wildlife.
The dining room offers panoramic views from every table, plus the capability to become a home theater. The lounge and bar provide a cozy setting to enjoy renowned New Zealand wines, beers and spirits. The food on board is top notch, prepared fresh daily by a passionate chef. Guests can expect dishes that showcase local produce and perhaps even your catch of the day. An added bonus of dining aboard Heritage Explorer is the option for private al fresco dining—or enjoy casual, open-seating meals with fellow guests.
Off-Ship Activities
Heritage Explorer puts a spotlight on daily off-ship excursions, assisted by two tender vessels, kayaks and a hydraulic aft ramp (ideal for entering and exiting the water with ease). The large, water-level swim step provides a platform for swimming right off the back of the ship. Special snorkeling and diving charters come equipped with gear for guests to enjoy the underwater world.
Travelers will get off the ship daily to explore beautiful beaches, historical places of interest, crystalline waters and dense forests. Expedition guides lead activities featuring wine, paddling, walking, hiking and swimming. Back on board, guests are free to enjoy relaxing in various inviting spaces, or fishing from the open deck.
Crew, Guides & Expedition Leaders
Knowledgeable expedition guides are ready to both lead guests into special wilderness areas, as well as explain the local conservation efforts and provide education around regional flora and fauna. Travelers can soak up insights from guides with backgrounds in botany, zoology, ecology, conservation, marine biology, history, photography and more, with regular lectures on board.
Cabins & Heritage Explorer Deck Plan
The 9 cabins and 1 suite on board, including 2 dedicated solo cabins, provide a flexible platform for guest groups of varying sizes and needs. Named after local varieties of albatross, cabins aim for comfort with full air-conditioning, ample storage via a wardrobe and drawers, a private ensuite bathroom with shower, TV and satellite telephone.
