Embark on the ultimate, premier whitewater jet boating experience with Rapids Jet, as we navigate the powerful rapids of the Waikato river.
Don't miss New Zealand's best white water Jet Boating experience!
Blast through narrow canyons, and speed over the crystal clear waters of the upper Waikato River. Experience the thrill and manoeuvrability of this impressive watercraft as your jet boat negotiates tight spins and takes on the Nga Awa Purua Rapids with full V8 power and aggression; surfing the pressure waves and ripping up and down the white water.
The scenery on the river is spectacular and there is ample time to enjoy your amazing surrounds while learning about the wildlife and history of the area.
Rapids Jet is set in the beautiful Aratiatia Scenic Reserve just 15 minutes drive north of Taupo and 50 minutes south of Rotorua and is guaranteed to get the blood pumping.

It says it all in the title. This is a must do experience!
The whole family enjoyed it
We did this trip as a family of 4. It was fabulous. Thrilling! Shannon and the team shared local stories, info and humor as we caught our breath!
Brought as birthday gifts. Partner loved and nephew wanted to go again straight away. Lovely team to deal with and very accommodating. Be my turn next time as we will be back 🙂
