| The River Journey Experience The ultimate Wanaka jet boating adventure Your jet boating adventure begins from outside Racers Edge at 99 Ardmore, Wanaka. Here you will be met by shuttle and embark on the first leg of your jet boat tour, a spectacular 20 minute scenic drive around the shores of Lake Wanaka. The jet boat base is at the entrance to a spectacular gorge on the Matukituki River. Here you will meet your guide and board the jet boat for the ultimate River Journey. Travel past Rocky Hill where scenes from Lord of The Rings were filmed as you jet boat toward Mount Aspiring National Park, part of Te Wahipounamu, South West New Zealand World Heritage Area. A unique wilderness jet boating experience: Explore the braided channels of this pristine river; execute spin turns in deep pools. Stop for photo opportunities of Mount Aspiring and her glaciers. Learn from your guide about the natural forces that created this amazing landscape. Yet another highlight of this adventure tour is a 50 minute guided wilderness walk alongside a mountain stream to a waterfall. Enjoy the tranquility of native beech forest before returning downriver by jet boat. This optional nature walk is suitable for people of all ages. Allow four hours for the Matukituki River Journey Experience http://www.wanakariverjourneys.co.nz | ||
