We started off our weekend stay in Taupo with Rapids Jets on Friday afternoon and had the most amazing experience. Very friendly and helpful staff. Gabe was our driver and was such a great & knowledgeable guide. We were the last cruise of the day so got to take our time and really take in the view of the might river and its beautiful rapids coming down from the dam. We had such a great time we had to go back on Sunday and do it again as our final trip before leaving and coming back home. We had Shannon the second time round and had just as great of a trip as our first. What a way to start and finish our amazing trip!!!! NEVER A DULL MOMENT!!! This was definitely the highlight of my stay and would highly recommend to anyone wanting a frill seeking, action packed experience. We will definitely be back again next time we’re passing through. Thanks guys, you rock!!! Ps… I advise looking on places like bookme.co.nz for cheaper priced deals. I booked both my trips through bookme.co.nz and saved heaps!
We had Shannon welcome us and help us to gear up. And we had Gabe as our driver last week. Both very friendly and knowledgeable about the area we went down. Great communication as we were given the option to come earlier before the rain set in and we were given plenty of time to get there. We had a great time and highly recommend
Had the best time with Shannon at the controls of the jet boat experience! Great fun great organisation and brilliant experience! Great value for money. Very safe and exhilarating at the same time. The Waikato River is stunning! A fantastic time from start to finish! Thanks Rapids Jet! Had a ball!! Pat and Alan
We had an amazing ride with James today, definitely worth giving it a go for alot of fun and laughs, we had two 10 yr olds with us and they had a blast. Would definitely go again.
Great experience. Friendly staff and amazing trip. Kids really enjoy the rides. We have done this few times now and always come back for more when we in town. Cheers
What an amazing experience. If you are ever in Taupo or passing, then take some time to go to the Rapids Jet. The staff are super friendly and the boats are a lot of fun. The photos they take are also amazing quality and worth the price. Can't wait to come back.
Wow...wow...wow EPIC......Rapids Jet Taupo team......you guys are awesome! This experience was insane. So happy to be supporting our local tourism community. This is worth every cent. Thrills - Views and local knowledge. Our captain James was amazing and got us wet. Thanks RJT......glad we got T-shirts also to remind us of this adventure. 100% recommend. And the photos are amazing! Thanks Jess. You guys rock. Sorry can't fault this establishment! 5 stars PLUS!
Cannot rate the total experience highly enough. From when Rapids Jet waited for us to arrive went to the opposition by mistake to our time on the water, the staff were polite and informative and the ride was just great. Well done Rapids Jet.
Book in advance so that you definitely get a slot. The guide was informative and able to tell us stories. We enjoyed the spins and turns thoroughly!
Super fun ride. Highly recommend if your after an adrenaline rush. Will definitely be back in the future
