What you can expect
Discover the waterways of Lake Wanaka over a thrilling 60-minute jet boat ride. This experience will see you racing across Lake Wanaka and down NZ's largest river, the Clutha, famous for turquoise waters and a gold-rush history.
Navigating shallow waters, overhanging trees and pressure waves at hurtling speeds, your adrenaline will be kicked into overdrive. Not least of all by the famous Hamilton spin! But it won't be all screams and spins. Expect plenty of photo opportunities, history and stories from your tour guide and the chance to relax and admire the incredible setting.
