Exciting family trip! - Absolutely stunning trip with Chris today, 5 out of 6 of us were rearing to go.. one (little human 6yrs) took a little convincing and by the end she was completely won over! Amazing views, and awesome jet down the Amuri with brilliant commentary stops along the way that set us up for loads of family discussions for the rest of the day. Would 100% recommend and grateful for the experience!

Rafting and Jet Boating at Amuri Adventures. - I had a fantastic time with Andrew and his team at Amuri adventures. I felt safe the duration of the activity (rafting and jet boating) and enjoyed my time immensely! I was reassured the entire experience and felt comfortable in the hands of the team.

Brilliant Jetboat Ride - My 14 yo son and I thoroughly enjoyed our experience with Amuri jet boating today! Fast and thrilling with lots of turns. Very close to the edge at times which delighted my boy and terrified me! (Which is the whole point with something like this) There’s a steep path to get down to the river so could be a challenge if you have limited mobility. Guide seemed calm and experienced and stopped to check on us. Was glad I wore a raincoat with the hood done up around my face to protect my ears from the wind. Highly recommend this experience!
