We had a fantastic trip and strong recommendation. We were dropped off as the other half of our family decided on the Huka Falls cruise. Shannon met us and checked us in and took charge of those bits of gear we weren't taking on the boat before handing out lifejackets - then down to the boat. The ride was fun with alternating getting wet and then blown dry as we skipped up the river at 100km/h. The rapids were fun and we went up and down a few times. The photos and video were also really good and worth the money. They then offered to drive us the 3km to where the cruise returned to as the walking track between the two was in disrepair. If timing works, also stay and see the dam open - it is spectacular.

What an awesome trip with Taylah! The river is stunningly beautiful but Taylah made it even more special with all her info about the river, power station and all the movies shot on the rapids. A brilliant experience

We did the jet-boating as a family of four (kids aged 10 and 7) and we all absolutely loved it. It was so fast, so fun and so completely hilarious to hear our youngest kid screaming and giggling with glee. Thanks to our driver Shannon for being so knowledgeable and trustworthy. We would thoroughly recommend this 💛🖤

We had a blast. Were booked on a lunchtime ride but this was postponed due to heavy rain. The excellent and friendly staff said there was a good chance of a window in the weather at about 3:15pm so we headed into Taupo for lunch and sure enough the rain subsided around 3pm and we got the thumbs up. The skipper was great and we whizzed up and down the river for over 30 minutes doing numerous 360s and flying over some great rapids numerous times. He stopped and explained the geography of the river and some of the films and locations used during the trip which was really interesting. We are so glad we decided to take the later trip before heading on to Rorotura. Thoroughly recommend it and thank you to all involved at Rapids Jet Taupo.

Brilliant fun for the whole family, best thing to do on a slightly wet day. Our driver Taylah had excellent knowledge of everything about the river and the dam. Highly recommended.
