Description:

Feel the throttle open as your shallow-bottom high-powered jet boat surges through the cold waters of New Zealand’s Waimakariri River. Flying past waterfalls and thick evergreen forests, all you can do is hold on and smile as your captain swerves into another wild 360-degree spin.

Ride in a comfortable bus toward your launch point on the banks of the Waimakariri. New Zealand’s rivers offer some of the quickest ways to access this country’s wild, natural landscapes and there’s no faster way to maneuver those blue highways than on a speeding jet boat.

There’s no mistaking when your tour begins as the engine roars to life and you’re pressed against the back of your seat. Your jet boat sucks glacier-fed waters and shoots them out the back in a display that would make Poseidon jealous , propelling you into a land of steep canyons, rocky riverbeds, and towering mountains.

In between sprints, spins, and aquatic drag races, your boat’s thrill-captain slows down enough for you to take pictures of the magnificent landscape as they tell you about the wildlife and history of the natural environment surrounding you.

When the stories and pictures are over the engine revs again and you’re off, screaming down the river back to slower transportation and your hotel.
