Must do!
This was such an awesome experience that I will definitely do next time I'm in Queenstown. They had an awesome deal going at the time which meant kids were free! So I definitely want to take my son next time. The view are beautiful and the driver was awesome. We felt safe and had no issues. If you go, TAKE GLOVES, SUNNIES & A SCARF TO COVER YOUR FACE. Highly recommend.

Our driver was safety focused but showed us a good time on the water! Recently recovering from a broken ankle but he helped me into the boat and made me feel secure. Choice views of the area you can't get anywhere else. Too bad we had a few people that didn't listen to the driver, and a translator for their group that was so loud we didn't hear much of the tour. Not GO Orange's fault though, keep up the great work guys!

Such a great way to see Queenstown and surrounds! Loved the 360 turns and skidding by nearby trees. Wish there were more tricks!

Awesome - Must Do for Queenstown
This was by far one of my most favourite experiences in Queenstown. I am pleased we went with Go Orange - double the ride time & the right level of thrills and excitement. Definitely the best value for us. Our host/driver was great, very entertaining, skilled boatman and good knowledge of the area. I also heard Go Orange has the best safety record, of the companies offering jet boat rides in Queenstown. This is a must for any visit
