Description
Cambridge New Zealand is near Hamilton, Matamata, Hobbiton, Waitomo and Rotorua in the heart of the Waikato region. Ask about our free self-guided glowworm viewing also.
Take a hair-raising ride on the Waikato River and reach speeds of up to 80 kilometers (50 miles) per hour. Enjoy fast and furious slides, make 360-degree spins, and stop at historic and sightseeing locations.
Meet and greet your local, professional guide at the boat ramp meeting point. Complete a small amount of paperwork and fit yourself up with a spray suit to keep you dry, as well as a life jacket to keep you safe.
After receiving a safety briefing from your guide, hear the roar of your high horsepower V8 jet boat as it comes into life once fed with air, fuel, and fire. Head off on the first leg of your tour and feel your adrenaline pumping. Enter into a 360-degree spin before coming to a stop at historic locations.
Listen to your guide's commentary about the places you visit and learn about the fish, birds, and wildlife in the area. Sites you will see include the Cambridge Gorge and Karapiro Dam, as well as rapids and waterfalls. Then, hang on extra tight for the speedy return leg back to the boat ramp.
