Million Dollar Lake Cruise

I've been on the cruise many times. Each trip I learn something new from the commentary so well done to the crew for the variety and range of information available! This is an awesome experience for those who want a peaceful and interesting way to learn about and to see the town. Take a jumper or coat though as it's colder than you think out on the water and views are best seen from the outside!

Relaxing cruise around the lake with Max the captain giving running commentary and entertaining with jokes included. Self serve, honesty bar was nice to see the trust in the customers and overall good value for money.

I really enjoyed this scenic cruise. The captain was great. Love the feeding of the fish on the wharf at the start. This was nice and relaxing and a great way to see Queenstown from the lake. Commentary of the history of the lake and Queenstown was really interesting.

Have been on the million dollar cruise several times over the years, such a good cruise along lake Waikato. There’s nothing like relaxing on a boat and viewing the surroundings. One of the main highlights for me was being able to have a photo taken in front of the Remarkables which gives a fabulous back drop to any photo! Very knowledgeable information from Wayne about the environment and surroundings and who clearly loves his work and Queenstown:)

Must do in Qtown! Worth every penny and then some!

This is a must do! 10/10! The boat has several viewing areas, inside and out. Its extremely comfortable! The views are outstanding! Captain Wayne is hilarious, he will have you laughing the whole way! Not only is he an excellent captain, he's a great photographer! I was a bit nervous as it was windy, but as soon as we turned to the other part of the lake, it was super calm! Clear blue waters, gorgeous scenery, good laughs, and a bar! What more could you ask for?!? Thanks for a great afternoon!

Best Jet Boat ride in Queenstown

Myself and three daughters (14,11and 9) all agree this was our favourite jet boat ride in Queenstown. The music was awesome, the views down the Frankton Arm of Lake Wakatipu were stunning and I personally loved looking at the million dollar houses on the side of the lake as we zoomed by. And then the ride was made even more stunning when we left the lake, zoomed under the bridge and onto the Kawarau river. Lots of 360’s made for lots of squeal of delight from us all. Thanks Thunder Jet - an awesome school holiday treat!

Bikes were delivered to our hotel and instructions given. We were on our way within 5 minutes and were very impressed with how they performed. Did 35km around the lake on the first day which was huge considering we rarely ride. Didn’t even use half of the battery charge.

One of the best jet boat in Queenstown! I took the 1-hour tour with Kjet, which covers the lake, main river, and small river. The driver is very kind and knowledgeable, answered many questions we asked. He also took us to a hidden water bush area with crystal clear water. We had about 10 spins and super close to the water bank. Everyone enjoyed it and I highly recommended to everyone!
