We had a great time on the lake with our excellent driver and your operator Matt’. It was so much fun and he was very engaging and knowledgeable. All the staff made sure we knew what was going on, from the time we booked and it was a great experience up the river and across the lake with those awesome views and great spins.
The ride combines a cruise across the lake, some high adrenaline fun and a quiet recharge for the next burst. Our Driver Steve was excellent and provided a great commentary on the lake and river. Highly recommend!
Thank you for running this great session. Neither of us had kayaked before, so we're a bit nervous about managing the distance etc without a guide and within the time limit. We needn't have worried as the guy (sorry can't remember his name) explained the map and basic paddling methods. We had an amazing morning paddling around Lake Wanaka, taking in the fantastic views We got out to stop on one of the beaches for a break, but found it a bit tough getting in and out of the water etc so after that, carried straight on to the end. We managed to complete the route in just over 2.5 hrs. In future, I'd take a nice little picnic and rest up a bit more and chill. A highlight of our trip!
We had a great time on this tour. It is a very enjoyable trip across the lake and with all the autumn colors out it was a fantastic relaxing voyage. The walk to the island peak was enjoyable and our guide told us bits of info as we did the walk. The captain also gave us a great time telling us all about Wanaka and the local scene. We would recommend this trip to everyone as it is so different to the usual " tourist" activities
Enjoyed a pleasant ride out into Lake Wanaka and the Clutha River. Sarah our boat driver was very personable and informative and drove the boat well - nice job..!!
Awesome time on the stunning lake wanaka with beautiful views amoungst the 360 degree turns. It's a must do!!
Beautiful cruise on a beautiful boat amazing views of the lake
Well worth the trip from Queenstown.
Wonderful afternoon of riding around Lake Wanaka to the French Patisserie at Albert Town return. Perfect weather, great e bikes, helmets and gel seats. Helpful, friendly staff. Highly recommended.
If we could give you twenty stars, we would. Very professional & friendly team. We will be back. Awesome experience
Our boat driver explained a lot of details about the area including the search for gold The jet boat ride was fun with some spins to make the drive exciting Overall a very nice experience
We had a blast. Lovely drive from Queenstown. Tracey was a star and let us re schedule our booking, even though we accidentally booked the wrong day. The Clutha river is beautiful and we loved the thrills of the 360s and knowledge we got to learn about the area during the boat trip! Scenery is breathtaking. Great morning definitely one of the highlights of our trip. Thanks again!
We did the experience with Sarah I believe her name was & it was fantastic. Loved every minute of it. Although I wish there were more spins.
From pick up outside the I-site to the jet boat trip to drop off, the service was top notch! Highly recommend for a fun trip on the river - short interesting commentary at different spots allows you to take pics in between holding onto the boat when in the 360 degree spins. There are plenty! Don’t let the winter temps dissuade you. They provide spray jackets with hoods. Also an option to buy a video of your trip, (digital copy) filmed from your jet boat.
What an AMAZING experience! Excellent service, great price, and what a view. My families first time in Wanaka, and it did not disappoint. This activity is an absolute must. I can't wait to go back
Lovely afternoon out, friendly operators, they were knowledgeable about the area and great with the children who were on the trip. A nice leisurely, scenic cruise for a couple of hours.
What a Excellent start to a beautiful day. My two girls loved it. The guys are awesome and make everything easy and loads of fun. Thanks heaps from the three of us
Really amazing experience, flying like a bird! The hosts were really helpful and accommodating. They made me feel so comfortable as I’ve been there by myself. I must say they are really good at their job. Please do try this whenever you go to Wānaka. Don’t miss out this adventure from your bucket list…
As a first timer to Parasailing I am so glad I gave it a go and the team at Wanaka Parasailing were fantastic, friendly and the humor put me at ease to enjoy the experience. 360 degree video allows you to return home and share the moment with others and select any photo you want. Excellent value for money, amazing views and a must do.
Best experience good views and photos. boat ride there and back was awesome had a blast of an afternoon there Mou Wahoo island 👌
Met the water taxi driver at the wharf & climbed aboard for a leisurely & informative trip up the lake toward Mou Waho. The island walk was reasonably steep but so worth it … awesome views from the lookout at the top & an inquisitive Buff Weka encounter. Lots of bird activity which I love watching. Quicker boat ride back. I couldn’t think of a better way to spend 3hrs & would definitely do this again.
Family of 5 superb trip up to a little island. My teenage daughter said it was the highlight of her trip so far and we have already been to Queenstown. The hike was steady but easy enough to take my younger son. Well worth going if you are at Wanaka. Highly recommend. Taryn
Was great enjoyed the meal great deal and took it down to enjoy at the lack front. Too many chips but should complain lol
I can’t recall when I last rode a bike but I’m glad I made a decision to rent one. I was able to see more scenic sights around lake wanaka. Went all the way past the river then back. Wish I hired it the entire day so I can stop and hang around the beach. The guys at the Bike Lounge suggested the trail to me and helped me adjust my bike. Overall it was worth every penny.
Great fun for kids and those young at heart! From the slanted rooms to the great maze there is never a dull moment! The little big room was a favourite of ours with the opportunity to make a very fun video as a memory!
Gorgeous boat and very very friendly, welcoming hosts. A simple trip out to the island viewing the coast and scenery. Lovely way to spend an afternoon.
The kids loved it, we loved it!!!
Fun place for all ages. My kids really enjoyed the puzzle world. The maze was the most exciting part.
Kids had a great time
Took my children there as a surprise and they loved it . The illusion rooms were an amazing sight to see, and the maze was a great and fun challenge.
Really good.Good fun
Fantastic cruise that I would highly recommend. Friendly staff make this a great experience. Good for children and adults alike.
Calm and relaxing from start to finish. The operators of this cruise are so friendly and informal, that you feel at ease from the moment you board. Apart from providing great commentary on the natural beauty of the surrounds throughout the journey, the Tour Guide is happy to engage in conversation on a range of topics, ensuring there is never a dull moment. The Walk to the top of the Island is not too strenuous and there's plenty of time allocated for taking photos.
We both enjoyed the cruise
Loved this beautiful afternoon on the water! We got to cruise around Lake Wanaka on a really quality vessel, take a short easy hike to a beautiful view on Stevenson Island, and enjoy a snack on the way back. The crew were so genuinely kind and lovely to chat with. Definitely recommend- good for bringing your well behaved kid along, accessible for those who would like a short easy hike, nothing too strenuous. Bathrooms on board. Drinks available too!
