A Must Do Experience
Husband, myself and 2 young teenager children absolutely loved this thrilling ride! The 360 spins were so fun and so many of them as well. The scenery was amazing and our driver was professional, informative, engaging and made you feel safe. Highly recommend the Thunder Jet!

Hi Sharn! Thanks so much for your 5-star review! It's definitely chilly this time of year so you're right, always best to dress in ALL the layers! And there's nothing quite like a high-thrill Jet Boat ride and a boogie to rid a hangover! 🤩🤘

Wet, cold but so much fun
The weather decided to rain just as we headed out, so we got pretty wet and cold fast, yet it just added to the experience. My kids and I had a blast, our driver was cool and so was the music, and the views were just amazing. Thanks Thunder Jet Queenstown.
