What's Included?

• Jet boat ride on Shotover River
• Safety briefing
• Lifejackets

Acknowledged as the world's most famous jet boat operation, this is one ride you won't want to miss! It's a thrilling ride - skimming past rocky outcrops at close range in our jet boats as you twist and turn through the narrow canyons at breath-taking speeds. Hold on tight as the driver takes you through a series of extreme manoeuvres, including the world-famous 360-degree spins!

The part of the Shotover River in which this experience operates is less then 10 minutes' drive from the centre of Queenstown and consists primarily of steep canyon walls, divided by the fast flowing river. The canyons have been carved over thousands of years by billions of tonnes of glacial water from the heart of the Southern Alps. The very grandeur of the river provides an element of excitement.

This experience is part of the Responsible Range as it was awarded a Qualmark Enviro-Gold endorsement.
