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!

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.

It's a great fun time and you do get wet ha ha. You get to spend time on the river doing something that you wouldn't normally do. The shot over part is great fun
