Full description
Operating at 10:00 AM daily, the scenic blast jet boat ride offers you a 50-minute, 36-kilometer return trip down the mighty Waikato river. Set off with a scenic jet boat ride in a sleek black boat on New Zealand’s longest river.
Begin with a leisurely cruise, allowing you to take in all its beauty. Your driver will happily share with you insights on the wildlife and native birds in the area. Admire birds, fish, pine forests, farmlands, native bush, the 50-meter high Tutukau Gorge, steaming volcanic river banks.
