Discover the untamed beauty of the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Mount Aspiring National Park on this full-day Dart River 'funyak' (inflatable canoe) and jet boat tour from Queenstown! Travel by coach to Glenorchy, where your adventure begins, and then hop aboard a jet boat and ride up the picturesque Dart River. Speeding through a landscape of outstanding natural beauty, your tour passes the 'Middle-earth' countryside that featured in the popular 'The Lord of the Rings' trilogy. In a secluded stretch of the river, swap the boat for your own easy-to-handle funyak and then paddle behind your attentive guide before stopping for a picnic lunch in the great outdoors!
No previous canoeing experience is required on this tour, and your guide will paddle at a leisurely pace to suit the group.

5.00Beautiful day. Didn't rain. Staff were friendly and enjoyable. Not strenuous. The gorge was the highlight, it was . . . gorgeous! Really pretty. I get could easily, so wish I'd work gloves and a knit hat for the jet ride, but no one else seemed to have trouble. They did advise bringing gloves and a hat, but it was a sunny day so I left them in the locker room. My wife and I really enjoyed the activity and are very glad we did it. Great memory. Will definitely recommend to friends and family.
Well designed and supported

5.00We had a fantastic time. It is so helpful to have them provide all of the gear (wetsuit, booties, fleece, raincoat, and a gater that proved helpful in a variety of ways—hair control, face cover, hat protector). The jet boat ride was a thrill. When we got to the funyak portion, the guides did a great job dividing up the large group into smaller units based on age, and even offered parents the option of having the kids ride with a guide. The guides were endlessly patient as people got stuck or fell behind so that by the end of the trip we were all feeling great. The food was delicious and the side trip into the chasm was gorgeous.
