5.00Amazing day. Gorgeous scenery. Super fun ride. Dean, our driver, was excellent : very knowledgeable and lots of fun. Bus trip from Queenstown was comfortable and Mac, our driver, had great commentary along the way. Would highly recommend this trip and this company.
Exhilarating time on the river

5.00Loved getting out away from the Queenstown crush and feeling in the middle of the wilderness. Jordan was a great driver and kept the mood light and fun. If it’s windy, be ready for the dust off the rocks!
Get a whole lot of thrills here.

5.00Not scary like speeding up beside rock walls and charging at boulders in the river but a comfortable pace of speed and spins in very little water. Thanks Dean for the fun and the commentary. It's the only way to see these parts of NZ, when the road ends and a river is the only way to go forth. Longest jetboat ride in NZ, I believe. Value for money. Professional operation as I would expect from Ngai Tahu.
Outstanding Dart River Jet Boat Experience

5.00We had an incredible jet boat experience along the Dart River with Pedro as our pilot. From the moment we arrived he made everyone feel welcome and completely at ease, and his knowledge of the landscape and local environment added so much depth to the trip. His piloting skills through the braided river were outstanding – fast, fun, and always confident and controlled. This was one of our absolute highlights of our time in New Zealand, and we’re already hoping to come back next year to experience the Funyaks as well. Couldn’t recommend this highly enough.
Highly recommend!!

5.00This was a highlight of our trip to New Zealand! Riding in the jet boat was very fun and the the views of Mt. Aspiring National Park were incredible. Pedro was an excellent driver and very knowledgable about Maori history and culture. We highly recommend this trip to anyone. If we get an opportunity to go back, we will try the jet boat/kayaking combo. Glenorchy is a cute little town surrounded by stunning mountains. We camped at Sylvan Campsite before our ride and really enjoyed it and the nearby hiking.
Must do experience!

Fantastic Dart River Jet Boat

5.00It was a great experience from the initial booking. Friendly staff and professional boat driver. The trip up the Dart River was spectacular, both from a scenic perspective and the thrill of being in the jet boat. Stopping along the way to be told about the area and history also rounded out the trip - it wasn’t all ‘hold onto you hats’ for the whole journey but when Pedro said let’s go you definitely held on!! Great experience!
Really fun tour

5.00We had such a great time, way above our expectations! The place is absolutely stunning, from the drive from Queenstown to Glenorchy to the actual boating up the river into the national park everything is breathtaking! The experience was made even better by our boat driver Jordan, he’s fun and informative, and such a character! Haha. Great host. The reservations team was very helpful and it was all easily organised. Highly recommend.
Great fun
