Overview

At Fiordland Jet we want to take tourism back to what it use to be! With a small group of 11-13 passengers per boat, our tours are all about making a personal connection with each one of our guests. This is an interactive tour - not just a thrill ride. We are the only commercial scenic operators on these waterways, which gives guests a truly unique opportunity to experience the magic of Fiordland without long lines or crowds

Itinerary:


Begin your tour at our office to get fitted for your bike and helmet plus a spray coat and life jacket. Take a short bus ride to the boat ramp where you'll board the boat with ease thanks to convenient ramps. After a short safety brief it's time to hit the water! Travel down the Upper Waiau River with crisp air rushing by, crystal-clear waters below and stunning views all around. Pause along the way to learn about the area and it's rich history, have some laughs, spot trout, re-imagine Lord of the Rings from 3 film locations and listen to native birds as your driver quiets the engine. Enjoy plenty of photo opportunities plus high-speeds and spins - which are great fun for all! Emerge onto Lake Manapouri and embrace the silence while surrounded by towering mountains and a view that will leave you speechless. Disembark into the National Park for a short guided nature stroll among native flora and fauna. Jump back in the boat and head back up river for more FUN! Back at the boat ramp your bike will be waiting to travel the designated cycle trail 10km/7mi along the river's edge back to Te Anau's town centre. The trail is well-formed and just requires a moderate level of fitness.

      What an awesome afternoon, from start to finish everything is taken care of. Wonderful staff fitted us out with extra coats, beanies etc.provided. Lex, our boat driver was wonderful. A great driver, knows lots about the area, and just a really friendly, great bloke. Lots of fun 360's.! Definitely recommend, if you want the fun of the jet boat ride, with stunning scenery thrown in. We opted to mountain bike back to Te Anau. Beautiful trail, the hills tested me out, who sits in an office all day,, but easy for my adult boys and hubby. Thanks Fiordland Jet staff for a wonderful experience.

      A wonderful experience ran by very lovely people. We were treated very well from the beginning until the end. Despite the cold weather, we were very warm in the provided jacket, beanie, and blankets all of the employees were knowledgeable and kind. We would definitely recommend this to any visitors of beautiful Te Anau

      Lex was the host with the most. Expertly skippered our boy with informative and humorous commentary. Cannot recommend these guy’s highly enough. Chris told us about this trip when we stopped to chat about e bikes. Next minute we were whisked away to catch the trip that had just left, they waited for us to arrive when we were rugged up and life jacketed for what I consider to be a world class trip. Both Chris and Lex are real southern gentlemen.

      An awesome trip from Lake Te Anau to Lake Manapouri. The jetboat driver and guide, Nicholas, was awesome and provided great commentary as well as doing the spins, allowing us to experience the peace of being the only jetboat on the lakes. Biking from the jetty back to Te Anau is a great option.

      What a blast! Friends and acquaintances told us this was a "must do" and they were right. It was a great combination of thrills, gorgeous scenery, fascinating information about the area and its history, plus some cool tidbits about the making of the first movie of the Lord of the Rings movie trilogy along the river. We added on the bike ride back to town and found it was way more beautiful than we had expected. All in all, a terrific day, no question about it.

      Superb jet boat trip In awesome scenery. As Lord of the Rings fans, it was great to spot various locations used in the film. We were impressed by how long we got on the water, and getting to keep the bikes for the rest of the day was great value. Nice touch to shout us a drink at the Moose Bar next door at the end. Felt well looked after from start to finish by excellent , friendly staff. Good safety equipment and briefing. Nico our skipper was brilliant and the jet boating was really fun, but we also loved the little bush walk he gave us. He was so knowledgeable and we learned heaps. Abi who sorted out our bikes ( good bikes, well maintained) gave us great advice about the extra bit of the trail we fancied doing. She was absolutely spot on. We loved our experience so thank you Lindy for persuading us! We’ve done a few NZ jet boat trips before and have to say this is right up there and is most probably our FAVOURITE!! Highly recommend it - fantastic!
