What an excellent time we all had! My Sister in law was a bit scared at first (at the front of the boat) but within minutes she was having a blast! We had Brayden as our driver and was fantastic! He had us all laughing and he was very informative. I have been jetboating before here at home and also... More

What an experience!!! It was one of the best and most most exhilarating things that we have done. From the time we arrived to the time we left we were greeted and looked after by such friendly and professional staff. Myself, my wife and three daughters loved it. We came out soaked and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. So... More

The whole experience was great - from meeting the lovely team, to the ride it's self. Rusty & Brayden were both excellent, professional & friendly! Having recently done another of the jet boat rides the area, I was expecting pretty much the same, but wow, I was so wrong! This was SO much better! Can't recommend it enough!

Where to start! The team at rapids jet are so lovely & friendly. We had the pleasure of Braeden as our driver & he was amazing totally made the trip! He defiantly knows how to soak the back passengers & leave us with girls with bad hair days!! But all totally worth it! Thanks for organising it all for us... More

We booked this jet boat ride after reading trip advisor - and after doing one on Sydney harbour 2 months ago (which we loved). Had hoped the ride was down a shallow tight river...after seeing tourist adverts in Australia -and we weren't disappointed! The driver took us at breakneck speed thru rapids only meters wide...regularly doing spins in places no... More

A must do in Taupo, we found it great fun. Our guide Brayden was very informative and funny, he had a great time splashing us! I had prime seat right next to him, my parents and little brother got quite wet though! Brayden controls the boat fantastically, we missed rocks and trees by inches! Very thrilling! Brayden was very interactive... More

I have been on jet boat rides all over the south island here in New Zealand and they all pale in comparrison to this one. The people, the boats, the ride, the river, the scenary, just the best in good ole Kiwi land.I would totally recommend this ride as one of the must do's in Taupo and the North island

My friends had been on a similar ride out of Queenstown and had had to dress up in splash proof covers which in sunny weather somewhat defeats the object. They said the pleasure and thrills paled into insignificance compared to the Rapids Jet which was fun packed, exhilarating and, at times, defied gravity. I would recommend this Jet above all... More
