Skim over just inches of water along the mighty Wilkin and Makarora Rivers during this one hour jet boating safari. Lined by the ancient river valleys and snow-capped mountains of the Mt Aspiring National Park, this high-speed adventure is as picturesque as it gets!
Producing a wonderful blend of snow-peaked mountains, sweeping river valleys and remote wilderness, the World Heritage-listed Mt Aspiring National Park provides the perfect backdrop for a jet boating safari. After a safety briefing, you'll take to the water with your expert driver guide and experience the ultimate shallow water jet boat ride, skimming along in just inches of water on the majestic Wilkin and Makarora Rivers. As you meander along 50km of this otherworldly region, your guide will share commentary about the history and geology of the area.

We want you to have the most enriching experience possible, so if this means swapping your jet boat experience for wine tasting then we’ve got you covered. Simply exchange online or contact our Customer Experience Team and we’ll do the work for you.
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. If you find the same experience advertised at a lower standard price on the same day by the same provider, simply take a screenshot of the experience advertised at the lower price and tell us within 30 days of your purchase and we’ll match it.
We understand life gets busy, which is why all vouchers and gift cards purchased have a 5-year expiry. The only exception to our expiry terms is if the experience has already been booked in. We honour the purchase price of our experiences for 18 months. If you book your experience after this time and the price of the experience increases you can either pay the difference or exchange it for another experience free of charge.
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.
