very nice jet boat experience with a brief bus tour for the Skippers Road. The jet boat experience last for like 10 mins and very suitable for family!

Review for: Skippers Canyon Jet Boat Ride

We were taken to 2 scenic lookouts. The bus ride to the location was over an hour on a narrow and winding scenic unpaved road. The boat ride was about 30 mins but thrilling. we enjoyed it.

Review for: Skippers Canyon Jet Boat Ride

this jetboat experience is different from what the others offer in that they drive you into the canyons with a WW2 era vehicle. it’s a thrill itself as the car is always near the edge of the cliff. driver gave a guided tour with some stops for photos. the jetboat itself was also well worth it though you should bring a face mask as it gets really cold. overall great experience and well worth the money.

Review for: Skippers Canyon Jet Boat Ride

This was my second favourite paid experience in NZ and it was totally worth it. Kudos to the guide especially on the skills needed to drive into Skippers Canyon. The view in Skippers Canyon is something I haven't seen while travelling both North and South Island. A little sad that the water was not blue on the day we arrived but the jet boat part was really fun. Thanks to both the bus and boat drivers for a really enjoyable time!

Review for: Skippers Canyon Jet Boat Ride

Had such a wonderful and thrilling time with Skippers Canyon Jet. The ride up to the canyons was filled with amazing views and the driver shared loads of interesting stories about the route. The Jet boat ride itself was really fun and we felt well taken care of despite the many sharp turns and speed. Would highly recommend this family business👍

Review for: Skippers Canyon Jet Boat Ride

Our bus driver Cal was fantastic with both informative and funny commentary. Ben, the jet boat driver was super skilled. Felt in safe hands for both experiences and couldn't fault this great tour. The drive through Skippers Canyon is as exhilarating as the jet boat experience it self. Highly recommend this tour.

Review for: Skippers Canyon Jet Boat Ride

The scenery on a clear day was beautiful, the guide was very attentive in explaining the tour, and his driving skills were very good, because the road we took was a gravel road on the edge of the cliff. The captain is very patient and has superb boat skills, it's really fun! The canyon scenery and clear river are so beautiful! I think it is worth a try. There are relatively few tours that can experience both boat racing and canyon sightseeing at the same time.
