What a fantastic trip with the 60 minutes zipping past a varied terrain. This trip is a little more scenic, water runs deeper but you definitely get enough excitement from the twists and spins, instructions to stay safe are incredibly easy to follow. Our boat captain was eloquent and shared good information on the areas that we went through, and had a sense of humour too. Went during winter so it definitely was chilly. Bring gloves. If you want to record your experience, just keep one hand tightly on the bar at all times.
Tripadvisor managed to get us the best deal on top of the best time we had with Thunder Jet Boat. That's a must-do-activity in Queenstown.
Kia Ora, Thanks so much for the nice review. We're glad to hear you had a great time on Thunder Jet!
You get very wet very fast you need to hang on. Great for kids grandma and grandad. Recommend for everyone.
Definitely be ready to take a soaking! We're glad you had a great experience, thanks for coming out! ⚡🌊
Jess was amazing with her knowledge of the river system and a lot of fun along the way
Jess is great! Thanks for coming out!⚡
Fantastic experience, 1 hour boat ride was great fun and the scenery breathtaking. We definitely thought it was worth getting the 1 hour trip to see more of the landscapes up the river.
Kia Ora, We are so happy to hear you had a fantastic experience with us! The 1-hour definitely provides some fantastic views.
