Rossco has been operating sea kayak tours for longer than anyone in Aotearoa NZ now. He’s quite the character.
One key point of difference with his company is the Sunriser Classic. It's is my choice. It’s designed to soak in the calmest morning sea conditions. Being an ex kayak guide myself, trust me, it makes a huge difference.
You're also on the water before all the Cruise Boats. Having the place to yourself for a time. Magic.
Campervan travellers are at an advantage due to the various overnight Campsites closer to Milford Sound. They allow you to get to Milford Sound in time. (In summer, departures are generally between 7am and 8.15am).
Another difference is the departure point. Somehow Rossco has wrangled a different zone for himself. Things are much quieter in Deepwater Basin (as opposed to Freshwater Basin where all the cruise boats depart from). Parking is free too.

Great experience!
Highly recommended :) we did the morning paddle and had an enthusiastic guide who was very knowledgable on the area. We saw Dolphins, seals, penguins and of course some of the amazing sights of Milford Sound!
-
While you do have to work for it, well worth the effort!
Takes you close and personal with the wildlife. Knowledgeable and experienced guides.
-
Amazing scenery, unforgettable experience.
Best way to see Milford Sound. Ollie and Mandela were very informative and helped make the experience perfect!!
-
Despite the constant Milford rain, we had a great experience exploring the Fiord with our friendly, knowledgeable guide.
The team was really well organised.
-
Really great day with an incredibly friendly, knowledgable, organised and accomodating guide.
Beautiful place and a must do- particularly by kayak.
-
I would give this trip an 11 if I could.
We were lucky, with great weather, and a pod of bottlenose dolphins who played with us for around 15 minutes. Beyond that, our guide, Adam, was friendly, well informed, and fun. The preparation phase was well done and fairly quick, and nice gear is provided. Milford Sound is a fantastic place to kayak, we loved it. We did the Sunriser Classic, it is a good trip. The groups are small, only 4 kayaks plus the guide in our group. And did I mention dolphins? A lifetime peak experience!

Great value for money offered by this product which is a morning kayaking followed by a water taxi back to the port.
Our guide was fantastic and we were able to get close to the penguins and seals.

Nice kayaking in beautiful scenery with a good interpretation by our friendly guide Morty.
We saw a couple of fur seals. We were in a group of 7 people and it is good that it was not crowded. Price $155. They provide you with all the clothes you need.

I did the Morning Glory trip.
As you kayak the entire length of the Sound it is quite strenuous but it is so worth it. It is really peaceful and you get to see the stunning scenery as well as wildlife much closer than on a tour boat - we saw seals and penguins. Only 9 out of 10 due to man eating sandflies!
-
Really good tour.
Did the Morning Glory, Callum, our guide was fantastic and the equipment is in very good shape.

Prompt, informative and fun adventure.
Get out early and enjoy the quiet sounds - dolphins, seals, breathtaking views.

Kayaked with Roscos on their Stirling Sunriser trip.
The trip was ideal for us as we were given freedom to explore the Fjord. Our guide was knowledgeable about local geology, flora and fauna.
-
Brilliant tour.
They put on another tour just to accomodate us. Guide was very informative, relaxed and patient. Must do on the Fjord.
-
Fantastic!!
The Morning Glory trip is amazing!! You are the first ones on the Fijord at 6am. And if you are lucky, in addition to the numerous seals, you will see dolphins! Best experience in New Zealand so far.
-
Did the Morning Glory trip, unfortunately had to stop due to weather conditions, but still worth going.
-
Very beautiful and the best with a lot of fun.
Because of the rain we had millions of waterfalls. Very good organisation, especially our guide Courtenay.
-
Awesome experience being in a small kayak within the huge fiord.
Afternoon Delight is highly recommended.
-
Incredible views, incredible guides (Adam) and waterfalls.
Too expensive compared to other kayak trips but I went with it based on location etc.
