Ride didn’t happen due to low numbers
Booked jet boat ride but due to insufficient numbers boat didn’t depart now to get my refund. Wonder how long that will take

Not much adventure.
It's like driving car fast. The excitement drops pretty quickly. The most adventurous part was going under the bridge, which was a 1 sec experience when the water level dropped under the bridge. The occasional spins are fun initially but you get used to them. Go for 30 min ride if you must do.

Kia Ora, Thanks for sharing your experience. We're sorry you feel that way but glad to hear you enjoyed going under the dam.

Good experience
Very fun and thrilling atmosphere. Beautiful scenery. Went on 11am one hour ride on the eighth of November, weather was nice. One hour went so quick because of how enjoyable the ride was! Just take caution with your back as it can be a bumpy ride! Reccommend.
