Join us on a wild ride down the legendary Buller River Earthquake Rapids, the section with the most whitewater in the breath taking Buller Gorge.
Adventurers will experience plenty of white water action. Challenge yourself at the "swim" rapid and the optional 8 metre cliff jump.
First Rafting Trip? - No worries! Your guides will give you full rafting safety instruction and are committed to making your river trip not only safe, but the best experience possible.
Because the Buller River is a large volume wild river with no dams to regulate the flow, the rapid Grade 3 to 4 varies with rainfall. Ask us about the river flow when you book.

Meeting point: Meet your guides on SH 6 at the Iron Bridge between Murchison and Westport. We'll transport you to the river trip start. Please see the map or ask us for directions if unsure.

Wild River Rafting
Awesome experience Marty and Bruce were outstanding and really know their stuff. Felt in very good hands and found out a lot more about the area as Marty doubled as a tour guide :). Would thoroughly recommend and well worth the money. Great fun and an exciting experience. Thanks Marty, Bruce, Cathy and Carlos
