Best Jet Boat Ride in New Zealand. - The experience offered by Fiordland Jet is simply outstanding, from the initial check-in to the farewell the staff (Chris, Abby & Shaun) were incredibly friendly and professional. The jet boat ride was a highlight of our trip and is something I strongly encourage other travellers to do if you ever visit Te Anau.

Incredible fun! - Trip was amazing! 2 hours of stunning views, thrill ride and excellent commentary so we’re more educated now, than when we stepped on the jet boat. Special shout out to Lucy first. She couldn’t have been more accommodating, she adjusted the tour by 30 minutes to make sure we made it on this beautiful sunny day. Even kept in contact with us, to make sure we would arrive ok. 2nd shout out to John. How great is he!! A treasure for Fiordland Jet He knows how to 360 turn!! Even a couple extra for my husband, much appreciated, brings out the big kid in us all. John looked after us, made us comfortable, offered to take photos and had a lovely cheeky smile when he made us all laugh. The scenery on this tour is just incredible! Book it , if you’re reading this.

Great day on the river. - Lex was wonderful - showed us such a good time on the river. Thank goodness they provide heavy coats, hats, gloves, and life jacket, otherwise we would have been freezing. I thought it might be scary, but it was exciting. I highly recommend.

Don’t miss this if you can it is really worth the time and money. - This was definitely one of the highlights of my trip to New Zealand. I really enjoyed this and actually was better than expected. We had a lot of fun and had a very good day out on the water exploring and enjoying the jet boats. This is a really exciting and wonderful way to spend an afternoon or morning! Wish I had one of these at home just to play around with their blast! We had kids on our tour and they had as much fun as the adults and it was perfect for both.

So glad we did this! - We made a last minute booking for the jetboat, and so happy we did. Captain Lex was our driver, and was amazing. I'm not a fan of speed in anything with a motor, but he gave me absolute confidence. His knowledge of the fjords etc was sensational. Great sense of humour too. The trip itself was amazing. The serenity. So much serenity. The views, the birds - do yourself a favour and do this activity.
