A great experience for the family, great friendly people running Rapid Jet and it was lots of fun...
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!
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
Veery highly recommend!! An Absolutely amazing experience, thankyou rapid jets Taupo and our instructor was the best! Ty 😊
Perfect for every adrenaline junky just do it!!!
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
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 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.
Kids loved it and staffs were awsome and very friendly.
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
Never been on a jet boat before and it was the best experience ever!
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.
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!!
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!!!
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
Awesome experience. We loved every minute of it. I would highly recommend it to anyone wanting a thrill.
Fantastic experience, very different from the usual stuff, super friendly staff, well worth the money & the journey
Well worth the money, great exhilarating ride and a great unique view of the falls
We had some really great times in the geothermal park Orakei Korako. All the geothermal The staff was friendly and the ferry was running there and back on request.
Amazing views! Highly recommend
I didn't know fully what to expect when booking this activity but I am soooooo glad I did!!! I love that a small ferry takes you across the lake to the geothermal park where you are free to take your time to wander around and take it all in! The rise in temperature is noticeable even on a overcast day so recommend taking at least a water bottle over with you. Free to roam until you have had enough then simple return to the dock and push a buzzer to notify the boat driver you're ready to come back and they will collect you. Staff were great in explaining what happens and what to do in the event of an emergency!
It was so nice out there. We camped in the carpark and were the first one on the island, so it was quiet and nice. Due to a little bit of rain the experience got even better :-) A must do! If you have a camper van just stay there the night before!
We ad an unforeseen event, we managed the visit and we loved it, quiet walk, very well signposted place and very kind and safe ferry service!
Easy walk, so many cool things to see! Book it, you won’t regret it!
Fantastic geothermal experience! The reception briefed us the health & safety and important instuctions and the ferrymen operated the ferry with great expertise. The geothermal park & cave are beyond my expectation. I am so pleased to see the gushing geysers, hot springs, and bubbling mud pools in my short trip.
New Zealand has lots of beautiful places but this one is really special. Raw thermal energy. Self guided meant we could spend as much time as we wanted to see the geysers. Hosts were very welcoming.
Self guided tour around this very neat area. Not like some of the more touristy experiences around so it felt authentic and largely untouched by humans.
Wonderful walk, very pleasant and doable for most! Beautiful views!
We had a great experience in Orakei Korako. Not only was it breathtakingly beautiful and an unforgettable experience but the staff/owners were all friendly and accommodating. Thank you heaps!
Orakei Korako was exactly as described in the brochure. It was set in beautiful, peaceful surroundings and was a wonderful experience. The pathways were clearly signposted and the information interesting. We spent more than 2 hours wandering around the site enjoying nature at its best. Highly recommended.
Wonderful
