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!
Guide was great, even better they were happy to take just the two of us out.
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!
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
Despite being very nervous about rafting before the trip, I really enjoyed my time! It's a great way to experience rafting as well as the exhilarating jet boat ride back! The trip started off cloudy but the weather cleared by the end and we also had great views of the surrounding scenery.
The jet boat driver is the man, end of story Do this activity!
highly recommend. I'm not sure I would pay the full price, but was very happy with my book me deal. The staff at amuri were lovely and as well as a spin in the boat they also give you lots of info about the area. Was VERY cold due to the wind but expected. thank you for a awesome afternoon.
Cool experience! Must be try once in your life. Easy to ride the quad bike and it’s scary at the beginning but you would get used to it and after 30 mins felt bored ?? I still recommend tho. Warning ⚠️ Wear cheap clothes because got a lot dust on them and sunglasses not just protect from sun and flying bugs also mask as well or your face will become so dirty
I had a great time, I highly enjoyed it & recommend this jet boating experience :)
It’s a must for everyone!! It was a really fun activity for the entire family and with our friends! Best part of the entire weekend...will go back for sure!!
Our kids (7 &10 yrs) and I had a fantastic time on the raft and jet boat. Our guide was friendly, fun, knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor. It was cold but they tried to make it as less of a factor as possible. This family run business is not a commercialized, impersonal attraction. They have heart in their approach to their what they offer.
That was great experience. Nice service and friendly staff. Free photos can be downloaded from website.
Thanks Brendon, you're an amazing boat driver!! Loved it. Love how friendly the brothers are too ??
We had an amazing time, we were taken down to the jet boat and brought back up which certainly was appreciated. Would not hesitate to do this again. Exciting, and during stops information on the canyon. Give it a go, thrills and scenery galore.
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 ?.
This is a great family run business. Myself and my wife had an amazing time and would definitely visit again when we come over for another holiday. Very informative driver. So much more than just a fast boat ride :)
It is a fun experience and family friendly! We came across a few ripples and big waves made this trip more adventurous. The captain did good commentaries for the view. We came back and jet boat and had multiple spins.
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.
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!
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.
We had an bsolutely amazing time! Highly recommend checking it out. Best part of our holiday
Most amazing experience!! Highly recommended
Great country, great views. The dust though 😩 yuck!
What a great experience, really enjoyed the landscape and guide was great. Look forward to returning 😊
Thoroughly enjoyed our jet boating. Would recommend this to everyone.
The best jet boat ride so far we love it?
Knowledgeable funny driver, great views add to this thrilling experience. Can’t wait to go back
Enjoyed this whole experience provided by a very down to earth bunch. It began with the jet boat ride which took us 20kms down river. (The access to the jet is very steep so may not be suited to people with limited mobility ) Then the 2 hour quad bike experience which covered some varied terrain. I loved the quad bike, very easy to operate. Great for blowing out the cobwebs.
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.
Must go alots of fun in ?
Great time had by the whole family. The driver was an awesome guy giving us interesting info about the surroundings on the river. Highly recommend this for people of all ages.
Had the best time of my life. First time ever riding a quad bike! Fell inlove with the whole experience and would definitely return. Thank you Andrew for being a great host. 10/10
Enjoyment from beginning to end. Brendan was a great guide and made the experience memorable. Family of four had a blast. Going under trees and close to rocks with 360 degree turns was really cool. Thanks Amuri Jet ☺
We really enjoyed the ride Staffs were so welcoming Best ride ever A+++
