Hang on during this thrilling Jet boat ride that travels at high speeds on two rivers, covering more ground with a longer time out on the water than similar tours in the region. Leaving right from the Main Town Pier in Queenstown, scream with delight as your jet boat zooms across Lake Wakatipu, spins in circles on the Kawarau River, and navigates the shallow waters of the Shotover River. Be prepared to have heart-racing fun on this roller coaster of a ride!

    Great experience. Only advice I would give to others is if you/family are sensitive to coldness take a beanie, gloves and even glasses/goggles maybe. The cold air after you have been wet can be a bit much.

    Well organised. Location point in the middle of town. Easy check in. Were given our life vests. Did not really get that wet! Cruised along the lake with spectacular views of the snow capped mountains

  • Great 1 hour excursion.
