Hi, can you tell me if there is as toilet on the cruise on lake Manapouri and the bus, and can you book a seat at the front, if no toilet presume there is one before hoping onto the cruise in Doubtful sound.
Do we return the same way as arriving at the sound ie bus back to Manapouri
Thanks

If you are disabled and on a walker with difficulty getting in and out of small boats, can you do this cruise?
Comments
The cruise is very accessible if you have a walker as there are ramps on and off the boat. The only issue you will encounter are steps, you would need to be able to get up steps to board the coach.
Does the day trip include a visit to the power station
Comments
Hi Kate, unfortunately the power station is out of operation until further notice, so at the moment a trip to the power station is not included
I plan to drive to Manapouri to join the Doubtful Sound cruise. Please advise if there is free parking near the cruise boat boarding point. If no, pls advise the approx cost parking.
Thanks
Comments
Heya, Yeah absolutely there is free parking right next to the cruise terminal. It is not technically a 'secured' car park but Manapouri is very small and in my opinion generally a safe place. Kind regards,
As we would be interested in this tour from Queenstown, just wondering what facilities etc are available for lunch? Is this onboard or do we have it prior to cruise?
Comments
For the Doubtful Sound day tour from Queenstown you have the option of pre ordering a picnic lunch which is given to you on board the coach to eat whenever you like. Or you are welcome to bring your own packed lunch with you. There are no lunch options to purchase on board the boat however you can buy lunch when passing through Te Anau on the way to Manapouri where the boat leaves from.
is this ship wheel chair friendly?
Comments
Hi Tanya, yes the Doubtful Sound Wilderness Cruise is wheelchair friendly. They have ramp access to get both on and off the boat and they will have someone available to help you on and off the Real Journeys coach.

Hiya Lloyd, Thanks so much for your Queenstown regarding the Doubtful Sound Wilderness Day Cruise from Manapouri, Great news, they have toilets on the boat across Lake Manapouri, they have toilets at the Visitor Centre in Wilmont before you board the coach, then it is short 45-minute coach trip into Deep Cove, once at deep Cove you will board the vessel for your day cruise which also has toilets on board, so I think you will be okay for toilet stops along the way ☺
