Join our Queenstown Rafting team on the iconic Shotover River for a whitewater rapid adventure. Your adventure begins with a short transfer from Queenstown to the Rafting Base, where you'll be fitted with wetsuit, rafting clothing and safety gear.
From there, enjoy a 40-minute drive along the historic Skippers Canyon Road, renowned for its breathtaking scenery and reputation as one of New Zealand's most dangerous roads. Once you arrive at Deep Creek, you'll start on the upper section of the Shotover River,
where our world class guides will help you practise paddling techniques.
As you move into the lower canyon, the excitement builds with rapids like After Shock, Jaws, Toilet, and Sequel. The highlight of the journey comes as you plunge into the darkness of the 170-metre-long
Oxenbridge Tunnel before bursting into Cascade Rapid for a thrilling finish. After a short walk back to the Rafting Base, you can warm up with hot showers before returning to Queenstown.

5.00Our family of five had a fabulous time whitewater rafting. The whole experience was great fun and we felt a super sense of achievement navigating the whitewater rapids. Our guide Morgan was a fantastic leader and we always felt we were in safe hands. The scenery is spectacular and there's nothing like everyone pitching in to get the job done. Thanks for a truly memorable time.

5.00Brilliant afternoon. Even the drive up to the start point is thrilling - thanks Rob for making it not too scary. Once on the water, Jess was an excellent guide, telling us some interesting history, in between the all important crew commands and safety briefings. A welcome surprise was that the pics were included for free - not professional but a great memory, much appreciated 👍🏻
Great afternoon on the water
