What to expect

Join Queenstown’s ultimate Jet boating adventure with KJet, the world’s first commercial Jet boat operator. Experience 60 minutes of high-speed excitement as you travel an incredible 45 kilometres through some of the region’s most spectacular scenery.

This unforgettable journey combines three iconic New Zealand waterways in one thrilling ride: Lake Wakatipu, the Kawarau River, and the Shotover River. Climb aboard one of KJet’s powerful twin-engine Jet boats right from the centre of Queenstown and cruise across the crystal-clear waters of Lake Wakatipu, surrounded by breathtaking alpine landscapes, before accelerating onto the Kawarau River. Hold on tight as your expert driver showcases the legendary capabilities of a jet boat with exhilarating 360° spins, high-speed manoeuvres, and plenty of adrenaline-pumping action, all while you take in the stunning mountain scenery.

The adventure continues onto the famous Shotover River, renowned for its shallow, braided channels. Here, you'll skim across waters as shallow as 5cm, navigating narrow passages and twisting waterways that make this section of the journey truly unforgettable.

Combining speed, scenery, and excitement, KJet is one of Queenstown’s must-do experiences. Book your jet boating adventure today and discover why generations of visitors have made KJet a Queenstown icon.
