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!

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!

BEST EXPERIENCE EVER!!!!!

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

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.

Wow, what an amazing experience. The guide was fantastic. They provide gumboots and overalls, along with all safety gear. After the group was familiar with the bikes and confident we were off!!! Along the way we stopped for a hot chocolate and biscuits. I would absolutely recommend this and will be back.

An awesome experience

The actuql jet boating and staff were fricken awesome. Was smiling ear to eat the whole time, part way through I actuqlly had to stop smiling as my cheeks got sore. Only thing that tained the experience was the hill/driveway that we had to walk down and up to get to and from the jet was a bit of a let down. Actual jet boat experience was awesome, but the in and out kind of took away some of the enjoyment, even just a trailer or tractor would do to take people up and down :)

The Staff are very friendly I even left my action cam and went back to Christchurch but they assisted me right away how it can be delivered to me right away. The experience was awesome! I thought its just going to be a normal jet boat ride not until the driver did some really tricky manoeuvre and 360 spins but we felt safe the whole ride because the driver never failed to remind us what to do and not to do. Even though it was gloomy the view was still amazing. I woudl definitely bring my family next time so they too can experience this awesome adventure.

This was a fabulous experience. I booked for our family and close friends for my 50th birthday amd it was a high lite of our weekend in Hanmer. Our driver was calm and made us feel assured of our Safety and funny and informative. Beautiful ride with thrills along the way. Photo to purchase at the end. My husband had been on the jet boats in Queenstown but said this was way more beautiful river and scenic.

The staff were very friendly, and I even got picked up from town to the main office, the driver even stopped so I could take a photo at the lookout. The driver and assistant of the jetboat were awesome, friendly, patient. I had an amazing time, it was fun and thrilling and beautiful, would love a job doing this kind of thing, I would definitely use this company again for any more adventures. And reccomend them on social media to any keen adventurers. Thank you for an awesome time. Made my day.

The staff are fantastic. Each one had spunk, personality, humour and down to earth. We probably would of liked a 5 minute down time in between each activity tho as we didn't get a chance to catch our breath after the hirendous walk back up the hill. You guys should get a little trailer for one of the quads and drive people up and down. An extra thrill haha. Thanks for an amazing day team ??
