114 Karetoto Road, Atiamuri-Wairakei, Taupo

Huka Jet on the Waikato

NZ Places has done this one! What a massive experience for the domestic or international tourist. A slightly less scary proposition than the Queenstown Jet Boat adventrures, well until you get on that is. Guides with incredible skill and equal humour take the jampacked passenger jetboats on a thrillseeking ride up and down the river in the most incredible formation of twists turns and spins. Tourists are soaked to the bone and scared to the bone too, and cannot stop laughing for fear and fun, as the driver climaxes the trip with a heartstopping 360 spin right underneath the amazing Huka Falls. Notes to the novice: examine your children for anxieties before getting on, as there appears to be no getting off. Wear something warm summer or winter and zip up the provided waterproofs tight. You will get soaked regardless. And when they say to take care with Cameras and Phones, they really mean leave them behind. And. Let your adrenalin calm before entering the gift shop or give it a miss altogether, this is a prime place to part with even more cash, though the photographs are probably worth it.
