Great fun experience. - Andrew owner and family staff gave us a great mornings entertainment. Rafting down river and jumping off canyon side great fun. The jet boat back upriver is amazing flying over the shallow rapids. Unfortunately I lost my apple watch in the river where we jumped off gorge. I located it on my iPhone and Darren another family member the next day dived down and retrieved for me. They are posting back to UK for me and would not take any payment for postage etc…what a great team and day. Thank you so much Neil and Su

Jet boating - We all had an amazing experience with our jet boat driver Chris. So knowledgeable on the history of the Waiau River, and made the ride safe and full of fun. My mum loved the 360s spins, and the ride by jeep up and down the hill. Fabulous

Highly recommend this small, family run business - Fantastic rafting trip with Darryl! We booked a rafting trip with Darryl, which included a cliff jump and jet boat. The rafting was beginner level and fairly tame but it was made so much fun by the guide. The cliff jump was scary and the jet boat was terrifying (in the best way). Highly recommend this small, family run business! If you want to see more details we made a youtube video: @rkbackpacking
