Shotover Jet, the World's most exciting jetboat ride! It's an adrenaline rush you'll never forget! We call it Thrill Therapy, and it's actually good for you too! From the moment the accelerator hits the floor, your adrenaline hits the roof as cling to the shotover jet boat you power through the Shotover River and deep into the Shotover River canyons! It's an amazing ride, as the Shotover Canyon walls tower over you, and your driver skilfully whips the shotover Jet past rocky outcrops and manoeuvres the boat into a 'trademark' Shotover Jet 360 degree spin. You'll stop briefly while your driver points out interesting landmarks and points of interest.
