The best jet boat experience we’ve had in NZ... These guys ROCK!! Going the extra mile to provide a fun, fab and exciting experience for the whole family, we felt like we were the only ones there that day, and yet we know that they had been flat out all day!! Absolutely exceptional customer service and we will be back without hesitation. Thank you for making our experience one to forever remember. Andrew & Chris: your passion shines through.
Great morning out with the family, the kids had a blast going through the mud and creak crossings, hired the 2 and 3 seat option. Great experienced crew, well worth doing, good value.
Our second time going Quad biking with these guys, the guide Chris and owners are amazing and super friendly! We’ll be back, it’s the best way to spend a sunny avo when the pools are too hot and packed! 😊 Lots of hill climbing, stream crossings, mud and straights! All while you have the most gorgeous view of the river and mountains. Don’t forget your sunnies and sunblock!
What an awesome crew. Took our Grandson for a ride, everyone was informative and the Driver fantastic. Well worth it. Thanks
Our jet boat driver was amazing- he managed to get every last person on the boat absolutely soaking. His skills had us all shrieking and thinking he was trying to make us crash into giant rocks, only to move ever so slightly at the last moment. So much fun!
The jet boating & quad bike deal thru treat me? 10/10 the whole experience, the jet boating was exciting Chris made it such a primo experience! Luckily enough we also got chris for the quad biking and it was so cool, we went thru water got wet and laughed our arses off LOL! Our team was so cool we were all so happy in the van ride back! If you’re thinking of doing it GO! Such a cool experience Ngā mihi Nui! Chris bro thank you so much your an asset to there team!
The overall ride experience is awesome apart from going up and down the dock as it is not safe enough for older people or families with small kids.
Absolute awesome experience, from views, to thrill, to laughter, and good local info. Well worth it ?? Thank u!!
Excellent experience
I've visited Hanmer Springs with overseas guests regularly and I always suggest a trip on the Jet Boat, fun experience and no matter how many times I visit the boys and the Amuri Jet, still blows me away everytime. Looking forward to my next trip.
I convinced my family to do this for my birthday and it was the BEST EXPERIENCE EVER! There were 7 of us ages from 63-6 and we all loved it including our three kids (6,7,8). The ride it self was so long & worth every cent. THE VIEWS WERE INCREDIBLE. Can’t forget BRENDON also HE’s Gangsta (AWESOME), he made it thrilling and also informative. WE EVEN ENJOYED THE WALK DOWN AND UP FROM THE JET we literally laughed all the way up and down from the jet, slipped a bit and laughed more, and it was the greatest bonding time. Overall it WAS THE MOST FUN, FAMILY/KID FRIENDLY EXPERIENCE with great customer service. I don’t recommend going in barefeet like my husband as its rocky on the way down lol
Excellent experience . Must try
Fantastic, friendly customer service. Super fun ride. The driver shared lots of info with us about the river. Would 100% recommend this activity on your trip to Hanmer Springs.
The second time I have done this with this company & can't recommend it highly enough! Darryl our instructor was so patient & has a great sense of humor! The track was varied with super fun water crossings. From start to finish we had fun & can't rave enough!!
We found this to be a very awesome experience, our driver was entertaining and kept up the thrills. Very beautiful river.
I went rafting while on my trip in Hanmer springs. It was outstanding from the team to the adventure. Our rafting coach was very friendly and interactive. The sights and history lessons were excellent. We were kept safe and enjoyed our experience. We had a great surprise at the end of our rafting trip! 10/10
Nice relaxing float down the river. Beautiful scenery. Exciting ride back on jet boat.
best time ever
Unfortunately our raft guide had a injury. But he rung us super early. We had an amazing experience jet boating & whole team/staff was amazing- must do fun for all ages and will do again! - in summer. Thank you!!
Totally recommended this experience to anyone weather you are a new zealander or a traveler, young or the young at heart. Put it on your list of things to do!
What a fantastic thing to do in hanmer well worth it we will be back even if it's raining again
Enjoyed the rafting experience with our 7 year old. The low grade rapids are safe for children to enjoy. For pro adult rafters, this might not be the best place. Christian was friendly and he took great care in explaining us about the river and the surrounding mountains. One disappointment was the photographs, we paid $40 for them, but none of them captured the action and it was too far away from the raft. I was expecting clearer and more better picture. I would recommend to not go for the pictures until advance go pro are being used.
Took our son on this for his birthday. Couldn't wipe the smile off his face, great friendly staff. Highly recommend.
Staff was friendly and excellent customer service. The rafting itself is fantastic, spectacular landscapes and the swimming is so relaxing ?? Keep it up pls
We had so much fun! Great for all ages...my son is 5yrs old and didn’t want it to end.
Took daughter and son in law and enjoyed the thrill of the speeding zig zagging boat but also the spectacular scenery of rushing water down a gorge with rocks rising steeply on either side, opening up to views of snow capped mountains in the distance.
It was awesome, we have done other jet boats but this one was the best and enjoyed by all the family, from Christchurch, UK & China. Recommend.
Amazing.. we enjoy everything. Beautiful place, friendly people and a lot of fun.. 😀😀
Crew waited for us after a bit of confusion on meeting point. Friendly staff.
A must do activity while in Hanmer! Super friendly team, and the jet boat experience was a lot of fun. Beautiful scenery and a little commentary on the area as well. Could not recommend enough. A great thrill and we stayed perfectly dry which we preferred.
It was an amazing ? experience. The organisers or instructors was really kind and has given me a free ride. Highly recommend to everyone. Ride was awesome ?.
The guys were so awesome with our group and we all had a blast. Safety was their top priority and I loved that. Great team great farm to ride on and just an all round awesome time. Loved it 😍
What an amazing experience, thrilling, informative, spectacular scenery, couldn’t ask for more! The ride on the water was at least 45 minutes, amazing value for money! Highly recommend!
I love the jet boat ride. It was great fun and there was beautiful scenery all around :-) Chris was our driver and he was very informative and fun and ensured everyone’s safety at all times. Thoroughly enjoyed this experience and I recommend it to anyone who has an hour or two to spare. Wrap up warm though especially in the winter months because it can get very very cold
Afternoon started with boys on bikes and girls in buggys, we had Daryl as our guide.. ( perfect guy for the job) he made the day relaxing and fun so much laughter had by all. I would totally recommend to anyone going to Hanmer “ Grab so free time and and jump on the Quad Bikes as we will be doing it all again next trip. THANKS QUAD TREAM. Jodi and family. 👌🥰
Awesome experience for the whole family, a must when visiting Christchurch.Great communication with operator will definitely recommend to family and friends
Excellent adventure, friendly and helpful staff.. boat ride was epic. Thanks a lot
