Accelerate your heart rate during this action-packed whitewater rafting adventure on the mighty Shotover River. Take on grade 3-5 rapids like the Squeeze, Pinball and Aftershock, before heading through the 170m Oxenbridge Tunnel and the epic Cascade rapid.
Get your dose of adrenaline during this whitewater rafting experience on the Shotover River. Begin with an unforgettable coach ride into Skippers Canyon, renowned for its hair-raising cliff edges and gold mining history. Upon arrival, listen in on a thorough safety briefing before boarding the raft, ready to get wild. Get a feel for the raft as you initially paddle from Deep Creek over peaceful waters. Then, before you know it, you'll be taking on a number of grade 3-5 rapids including Aftershock, Squeeze, Toilet, Pinball and Jaws. Keep the heart rate racing as you raft the 170m Oxenbridge Tunnel, followed by the grade 3 Cascade rapid. Warm up with a hot shower at Rafting Base before your return to Queenstown.

Not only do we handpick the best experiences for you, we also guarantee you’ll pay the same as you would buying direct from the experience provider.

We know the trust consumers place in ratings and reviews is tied directly to authenticity. That’s why we use Bazaarvoice. We believe that reviews should represent the genuine, unbiased, and transparent opinion about the author’s experience with a product or service. Reviews are not altered in any way by anyone other than the original author — including corrections for spelling or grammar. Reviews are not filtered, edited, or deleted simply because they are negative or are lower-rated.
