Awesome Trip

Hamish was an awesome guide who looked after the whole group and made sure everyone had the best time. The whole experience was well organised and catered for all involved. Wouldn’t hesitate about joining another trip organised by Wellington Rafting when we come back to Wellington again!

So much fun!

Can’t recommend enough! Such a fun day day, huge shoutout to Hamish and Griff, both guys are legends and have a wealth of knowledge about the river and rafting. Both very professional but know how to have laugh at the same time! Can’t fault the experience at all, they even made the health and safety briefing fun! Special shout-out to Bonbon too!

Amazing

Highly recommend! I’ve had lots of fun doing rafting with these guys, they have everything to provide an outstanding experience. Great customer care. No need to bring anything, just enjoy without being worry of your belongings. In the river you will be provided with all necessary. So leave the hat, sunglasses, camera, food, water, etc. at home. They will take better pictures than you anyway! I can’t wait to do it again!

Best day ever

Epic adventure, hours on the river with really awesome crew from Wellington rafting. Lunch (a filled roll) and drink were provided and all the gear to stay nice and toasty in the cold water. Will definitely try the other grades over summer and repeat this trip in winter during full flow and higher river levels
