The owner and the staff are super friendly! The White cherry is my favourite!
Good selection of car's in nice environment,nice cafe and pleasant staff
Great experience, as one of 4 passengers and the pilot, Richard. Very well organised with ours delayed 24 hours due to the weather and continuously updating with status updates. The Flight itself and then alpine landing were both great! Highly recommend! Thank you :)
This was a fantastic experience to do. The team were so helpful and easy to communicate with. The information and knowledge during the flight was great. I enjoyed the view. We were particularly blessed as there was a little snow left, and we got to play in it on our landing.
A trip well worth it with a fabulously friendly husband and wife team at the helm. Yolanda and Richard have first class personalised service and made us feel like very valued clients.
Best couple to deal with...made it work in the time available ....more than delivered on the experience...interesting commentary and the geography...ultra safe operators ..and hot chocolate on a mountain top in the snow! Definitely going again.
An experience not to be missed!
One of the best experiences of our lives, everything was absolutely incredible. Richard & Jolanda are extremely kind, accommodating & professional, they are the best in the region! I would do the trip again in a heartbeat and highly recommend this trip!
Great experience on our one year wedding anniversary!
Richard and Yolanda provided an incredible experience. This is not to be missed!
Service was great, ride was smooth, landing views were to die for! Thank you and would definitely recommend!
I couldn't recommend this experience any more highly. From start to finish the communication was exceptional, going out of their way to help arrange transport & new timings when the bad weather set in. A must do experience in this area and no better company to do it with
being life time locals decided to give as a gift to hubby he and my daughter they just loved it ,friendly helpful fun staff ,would recommend to any one weather you are a local or just passing through crowmell
It was really a great experience. The actual time we booked was 1115H but it was so foggy but thanks to them that they have adjusted the time so that we could really see the view. And the staff were so accommodating and they really update you time to time by calls and messages. Easy transaction with them. We did enjoy it?.
Good to try!
Putting warm greetings and theprofessional pilot aside, the ride is an amazing experience and the view would just wow you. Considering the price, the ride is longer than expected and it definitely worth it!
THE BEST experience both my wife and I.It's the 3rd time we had our vacation in QT, and I did lots of comparison due to she is 5 months pregnant and I wanted to give her the best memory this time. It's definitely the right decision I hv to say. The assistant Jolanda was extremely kindness and enthusiasm.She recommended the date which could have a fascinating feeling and keeps following the forecast of the weather for us. The helicopter was particularly beautiful and it gets windows everywhere so each seat could all have a fantastic sight of view even in the middle seat. The pilot was super!He keeps introducing the enormous landscape both back and forth of the flight. Book without hesitate.
Enjoyed this when we were in NZ we had a talented lady driver that gave us good information about the gold mining that had taken place there whilst on the boat...
Cam and Shaun are very friendly, professional and really know their stuff. My group of 6 from Australia, Denmark, New Zealand and Canada thoroughly enjoyed this exciting adventure and highly recommend this company and tour. Well done guys! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
First time on a jet boat. Awesome experience. Our driver was a lot fun and pretty, and a brief history into the area which was very interesting. My group keep talking about it for days about it. Picture will describe your feeling
This is definitely worth doing with a Bookme deal. My husband and I paid $60 each (which is much less than the other jet boat companies). We really enjoyed our experience. My only disappointment is that the jet boat ride felt much shorter than 25 min, and that rather than going in a straight line for start to finish, we drove up and down the same section of the river over an over. This was a bit of a let down, but is understandable given there's only a small bit of canyon they can boat on. The 360 degree spins were super fun and a major highlight, and we ended up getting the photos included which was a really nice perk! Thanks Goldfields Jet!!! :-)
Took my kids on their first jet boat ride and we all loved it. But of a hidden Jem. Stunning scenery. Olly our driver was fab too
Well informed - Great Thrill Ride - Be prepared to get a wee bit wet - But it's only Water - We had a Ball - Wrap up warm in the Cooler Months
What an awesome experience. Dad was over the moon looking at the cars and the kids had activities to do too. We had an ice cream on the deck afterwards which was super relaxing. Highly recommend this activity for the whole family.
Whether you’re a car enthusiast or not, you’ll love it. Great for the kids…interactive and fun.
Had a great time. The museum is a bit small and main atraction is the Auston Martin Vulcan. There’s also a ford rs200 and a few interesting old cars. Overall good experience plus the minigolf was the best atraction
Great place to visit highly recommend
We were in the area and managed to get $5 bookme tickets. The museum is small but has a few interesting features to read, and a couple of interactive activities. Outside they have a small kids playground, balance bikes and a few mini golf holes - all free to use! This helped to prolong our time here. There is a cafe where you can sit and watch the track or venture down a few stairs to check out the loo with a view!
We had a great time at Highlands Motorsport Park. Really surprise at the collection of awesome cars on displayed from many different eras. My two preschool kids enjoyed seeing the different cars and Bumble Bee (Transformer). Thanks for the welcoming staff who help us take a family picture without us asking. Also had brunch there as they have a nice cafe after walking around to see all the different cars. A great place to visit in Cromwell. Just wish more people would know about this place.
This is a great place, I wasn't in a happy space when I arrived, but all of you staff were so welcoming, which helped me feel happiness. The Go Kat ride was the best, I had fun, and I won the race. The museum was also great to see
Our group of 8 came to highlands and had an awesome experience . The muesem was great.
Enjoyed the museum. They have my favourite character in Transfermers..Bubblebee :)
Was a great experience. Very professionally run. I have raced all forms of motorsport over the last 35 years and stiĺl found driving the Radical very exhilarating. This is a real racecar to drive. A must do for any petrol head.
