Venture deep into the wilderness on a thrilling adventure

Experience the best of New Zealand’s untouched wilderness with an adrenaline-fuelled jet boat ride and a serene Funyak journey along the stunning Dart River.

 

Start in Glenorchy with a high-speed jet boat ride, weaving through the winding Dart River with skilled drivers at the helm.

Once your adrenaline has peaked, switch to a Funyak (an inflatable kayak) for a tranquil paddle downstream, where secret waterways and the striking Rockburn Chasm await.

Pause for a gourmet riverside picnic, surrounded by ancient beech forests and breathtaking scenery. Then, take the road back to Glenorchy, passing through the stunning Paradise region, where towering peaks and cinematic vistas make you feel as though you've stepped straight into Middle Earth. It’s the perfect conclusion to an unforgettable adventure.
