Hi everyone!! From all the crew at Fiordland Historic Cruises, thank you for an amazing season!! We've been truly blown away by your support and belief in the product we offer onboard Faith, on Lake Te Anau, in the Fiordland National Park. We've loved the mix of day trips, extended South Fiord cruises, overnights, and private charters. We've genuinely loved spending time with you, and helping make memories that will last you a lifetime. Without you pushing the book now button, choosing from our selection of merchandise, and purchasing the book we've written and published on Faith's history - all of this would be just a dream. So - thank you, for helping make our dreams come true, so that we've been able to share them with you all. Have a wonderful winter, we'll see you again for cruises in the spring!!

Hi everyone!! This is us - as the Fiordland Classic Boat Festival - supported by some very special classic boat enthusiasts, to bring together a weekend of celebrating Faith's 90th birthday, and all those classic boats sitting in sheds that deserve a bit of time on the water. Extending you an excited invite to come and join us for the weekend of the 23rd/ 24th and 25th of May.

We'll keep posting as promised to ensure you have all the info you need. In the meantime - get your boat out of the shed, encourage your friends to do the same, give support to those that might need a bit of help to do this, and take a look at your accommodation options. We'll be back with the next updates soon!!

Cheers,

Adam and Megan

Come and join us on the 23rd, 24th and 25th of May 2025 to help celebrate Faith's 90th birthday. This is an invite to all of you who have older style vessels...

We love it when the feedback we receive from our passengers matches our company ethos. We love our vessel Faith and sharing the national park with visitors and locals is a privilege. Life is not just about making ends meet but really loving what you do. They say "if you love what you do, you'll never work a day in your life" and while some days very much feel like work, there are so many moments where I'm thinking, we're so lucky we get to do this! Thanks Jacob for your review!
