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!

A fun trip for all speed enthusiasts of all ages with a safe boat driver, good boats for high speeds, an exciting trip in the river and also many 360 degree turns for great cheers. Also very good with departure from the main pier in Queenstown

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.

Wear a rain jacket. You will get a little bit wet even on a sunny day. Better to try and go on a sunny day to get the best views.

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

A blast. Expect to get splashed, maybe wetter in a couple seats, but no need for extreme protection.
