Hi Courtney, Thank you for the amazing review, we're overjoyed to hear you found the overall jet boating experience fantastic! We hope you had a lovely time on the trams in Christchurch as well, and we hope to see you back again in Hanmer Springs for some more awesome adventures. Cheers, The Hanmer Springs Attractions Team

Would do this again

This was heaps of fun and I would do again, only thing that would've made the JetBoat that little bit better than it already was, would be to have more driving, spins and less talking about the area, riverbanks and landmarks but I understand why they did that.

Hi! Thank you for leaving the great review, we're happy to hear that you enjoyed the experience despite the little lessons here and there. We think the tours are a great way to teach people about the area and its history but understand it may not be that exciting for everyone. We hope to see you again for some more adventures :) Cheers, The Hanmer Springs Attractions Team
