Super fun! Thrilling and exciting ride. The price is worth every turn of the shotover boat!! They provided safety precautions prior to the activity so everyone doesn’t have to worry. You should just listen to the boat driver and take it seriously. The whole experience is really worth it and I can say it’s one of my core memories from my ZQN travel. Hoping to try this again when we plan to come back!

Great experience and can’t leave Queenstown without trying this jet boat! Tip to bring a beanie, waterproof jacket and maybe a phone case with a strap. You’ll get water in your ear so cover it if you can.

It was truly a wonderful experience! Riding the jet boat, we weaved and sped upstream through magnificent mountains and rivers. The driving skills were top-notch, and the 360-degree spins were thrilling and fun. Paddling downstream in the inflatable raft was leisurely and effortless, as long as you could steer. Passing through the more turbulent sections looked nerve-wracking, but with the coach's safe guidance, everyone moved forward smoothly. We even enjoyed a delicious and hearty outdoor lunch midway. I really admire our coach, Michelle; she's like a superwoman! Her explanations were clear and humorous, and she's beautiful, smart, capable, and dedicated. She made my friend, who can't swim, feel completely at ease and happy throughout the trip! I give a big thumbs up to this company for their overall activity planning and teamwork!

It was a long, exciting, and fun experience! If you're enthusiastic enough, the instructor will give you plenty of thrilling spins. I recommend wearing a waterproof and windproof jacket or a raincoat (with a hood), because your hair will definitely get wet! You can wear a phone lanyard so you don't have to worry about your phone flying out while recording videos or taking pictures!

We were able to taste many wines, and both the wine and cheese were delicious. We also enjoyed the New Zealand scenery and conversations with everyone who participated. We are very satisfied.
