This was a fantastic experience from booking, to the friendly greeting at reception and the jetboat experience. My wife wasn’t so sure before but is still buzzing about it now. Give yourself a buzz and do it!
Definitely one of the most exciting thrilling things to do on a birthday. Thank youse for being easy, convenient, friendly and a pretty cool driver. Loved it and will definitely be back
Veery highly recommend!! An Absolutely amazing experience, thankyou rapid jets Taupo and our instructor was the best! Ty 😊
Never been on a jet boat before and it was the best experience ever!
Second time we have been on rapid jet and just as good if not better than when Dave took us ?? Shannon took us on this trip he did a fantastic job very skilful driver and very entertaining great knowledge of the river and surrounding area, Rapid jet is awesome!!! Very well set up and professional in what they do, if you have been once and think oh I’ve already done it go and do it again it’s so cool the second time!!!! Thanks Rapid Jet
Great chat with Simon our driver very personable, staying braced in the vehicle you can really feel the wind in your face and the water splashing against the boat, it was great fun! Lasted bout 30 ish minutes, worth the money, the spinning in the boat is definitely something you need to brace for, super exciting! Although we didn't get to go at our original time, it was pushed back and we got to still go that day Cool as photos and videos can be bought of you in the boat while driving Really glad I got to do this, if you like cruising around the water at high speed it's worth the time and money!
Kids loved it and staffs were awsome and very friendly.
A great thrill seeker for the whole family. The kids favourite so far. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Gave was an awesome driver/host. A must do in Taupo
Absolutely fantastic 🫶 great experience and so much fun. Our driver Taylor was so lovely and drove like a professional. Wi would highly recommend this tour
A must do for anyone wanting an adrenaline rush! The staff were all superb and our boat driver was so much fun, lots of joking and laughter to be had.
I have been on this trip 5 times now..... There's a saying "You've tried the others, now try the best" - this is SO true of Rapids Jet - they are amazing!! Adrenalin filled, spins, speed, rapids "jumps" - everything you could want... WARNING - you WILL get wet, so be prepared!! Thanks guys - see you in Dec/Jan for my 6th trip!!!
Absolutely fantastic! Great experience, and amazing service.
We started off our weekend stay in Taupo with Rapids Jets on Friday afternoon and had the most amazing experience. Very friendly and helpful staff. Gabe was our driver and was such a great & knowledgeable guide. We were the last cruise of the day so got to take our time and really take in the view of the might river and its beautiful rapids coming down from the dam. We had such a great time we had to go back on Sunday and do it again as our final trip before leaving and coming back home. We had Shannon the second time round and had just as great of a trip as our first. What a way to start and finish our amazing trip!!!! NEVER A DULL MOMENT!!! This was definitely the highlight of my stay and would highly recommend to anyone wanting a frill seeking, action packed experience. We will definitely be back again next time we’re passing through.
Awesome experience. We loved every minute of it. I would highly recommend it to anyone wanting a thrill.
Perfect for every adrenaline junky just do it!!!
Absolutely wonderful. Really enjoyed.
It was amazing!! We we're really lucky with the weet het, so we tot only wet from the jet! ;) The speed was geest, over and through the waves! Awesome!!
This was the best fun we’ve had in a long time. Staff were amazing! Best crew, made the experience even better! I highly recommend this activity next time your in Taupō with your family. I’ll definitely be bringing the kids next time. Thanks Rapid Jets
A great experience for the family, great friendly people running Rapid Jet and it was lots of fun...
This was my first time on a rapids jetboat and it was awesome such an adrenaline rush i didnt want it to end. I'll be definitely coming back here again
Great chance to learn husky, the best part is petting them after. Staff are so friendly, we had nice tea after the petting as well.
The whole family loved the experience. Highly recommend. Really great hosts who impart their love and knowledge of the Huskies in an interactive and fun way. Really loved getting to have time petting the Huskies.
Steve and Tania were so knowledgeable and kind! The made our time with the dogs so valuable! Totally recommended
What an amazing experience! We visited Mid-July for our weekend trip to Taupo and Rotorua, and we all had a great time. My son, who is special needs absolutely loves animals so he was definitely in his element. Steve and Tanya are such great hosts, we enjoyed talking to them as well as seeing the dogs run and having time to just hang out with their beautiful huskies. Highly recommend visiting Timberline! We will definitely be keeping in eye out on their websites to hopefully see their puppies, hopefully soon!
It was great to see someone who was so passionate about their pets. Very friendly.
What a great experience! Before only know the pet husky in the home, today the first time to understand the competition level of husky. Thanks Steve & Taniya for the interesting explanation, all the huskies are extremely nice and cute, I love this place! Especially lucky! Also see just born two weeks of puppy, 3 years will not have a puppy.
Had a great time, kids loved it, dogs were gorgeous and so friendly
Our hosts were very friendly and nice, great with the kids, super informative, clear with instructions. A beautiful home & kennels. Served yummy drinks and biscuits afterwards. We are a dog loving whanau and really enjoyed being around so many of them at once and especially being able to see puppies! Amazing. Thank you for the awesome experience!
Hosts are very passionate, friendly, knowledgeable and really make the experience special. The talks could have been a bit shorter for the sake of the children as it was a long time to sit still and listen but they loved the interaction with the dogs and watching them race all harnessed up as a team.
Was awesome to meet all the doggos but also to learn a bit about them as well . Well worth for dog lovers and anyone wanting to learn more about these beautiful dogs.
My entire family love love loved this experience! Our hosts were fantastic from the get go and made the whole time informative, funny and enjoyable. The huskies were beautiful as well as their awesome German shepherd who is like an honorary husky. We highly recommend this tour to every dog lover or husky enthusiast as these owners really know their stuff! Hope to do this again in the near future.
