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.
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!
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!
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!!
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
Absolutely BRILLIANT!!! Best ever jet boating experience we've had. Lovely staff. Don't hesitate to book with this company. They are really great!
We are absolutely lost for words, our guide was amazing, everyone was laughing before we even stepped foot on the equipment right until we got back into our cars. We had a great time and will be back! This was suitable for our family including our 4 year old, our guide went over and above for him. Such a great 2 hours.
Great country, great views. The dust though 😩 yuck!
We had a tonne of easy fun with our 3 older kids. Perfect activity for some laughs
Awesome fun and great trip. Highly recommend doing this.
Awesome experience for our family. Friendly staff, knowledgeable operator, stunning views and amazing unique experience
Thanks great fun Good service So want to go again
Took my sister in law and daughter with my partner and I for our second time with Amuri and they absolutely loved it ! 10/10 would recommend just bring some good walking shoes to get down to the boat :)
Had a great experience. Family owned business. Had fun time with Andrew.
We really enjoyed the ride Staffs were so welcoming Best ride ever A+++
Really nice, we got ourself a good deal trough BookMe. Paying full price would be to much for us. Eitherway we had a great time speeding on the river. The boat captain is very experienced!
Thanks to brendon and the crew for a fantastic ride. Kids absolutely loved it and Havnt stopped talking about it. Highly recommend
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 ?.
We had an bsolutely amazing time! Highly recommend checking it out. Best part of our holiday
Such a fabulous trip. Great fun made even better due to the awesome staff. Will definitely book more activities with these guys in the future.
Well worth doing. I’d never been on a jet boat and my daughter had a bad experience on a jet ski told the driver this he told us the best place to put her on the boat and made sure she was ok she loved it wanted to go again. All the staff and friendly and helpful well worth doing.
Had a 10/10 experience with Amuri jet boating. The water and landscape was just magic. Chris was our driver and even though it was fast weaving in and around rocks and trees he was in total control and we felt very safe. Thanks so much team we had an amazing time in Hanmer Springs, Would recommend !!!!
The best jet boat ride so far we love it?
Thanks Brendon, you're an amazing boat driver!! Loved it. Love how friendly the brothers are too ??
Wow, what a blast. We had such an awesome time. It was a perfect day. Our driver gave us some really cool information about the fault lines that could be seen up the river and some little bits of history when we stopped. Mixed in with lots of at speed twists, turns and full circles it was an awesome experience.
Thoroughly enjoyed our jet boating. Would recommend this to everyone.
Had a totally awesome experience jet ride with Brendon who is NZ jet boat champ in NZ and internationally. Such a cool ride!! Don't hesitate this is epic 😎 Thanks again. A real privilege 💯 Lisa and Jon Clear
Oh so great! This was my first time on a quad bike and I certainly had fun! Easy to ride and we enjoyed going through the streams. Amazing views from the top of the hill. Jet boat was thrilling, my 11 year old son loved it too. The driver certainly knew what he was doing! Excellent value package, would highly recommend doing both. I am going to bring the rest of the family and do this again. Thank you for such a fun time :)
Excellent adventure, friendly and helpful staff.. boat ride was epic. Thanks a lot
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!
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.
Great day. Operator Brendan was friendly, welcoming and provided good service. Ride lasted over an hour well worth it.
