Once in a lifetime experience. - We had a truly amazing experience with the Fiordland Jet crew during our visit to Lake Te Anau on Dec 31, 2024. The entire team at Fiordland Jet was amazing from the owner Chris (really cool fella) to Lucy and the boat captain Sean (another cool fella). Sean was very kind and took us and a few other families on an amazing boat trip on the Waiau River to Lake Manapouri including a short bush walk. I strongly recommend anyone visiting the South Island and in particular Queenstown or Lake Te Anau to get this experience with Fiordland Jet. You will never forget it including those crazy spins that are a treat :). Thank you Chris and the FJ team for the experience of a lifetime.

So peaceful with a shot of adrenaline - Fantastic trip, great commentary from Chris on the boat and Abby on the short bus trip to the launch area., and explanation of the experience from Amy when we stopped by the ticket office. Enjoyed hearing about the Lord of the Rings locations and local history. Scenery was so amazing and getting to spend 2 hours out there was wonderful. And the spins were fun.

The best jet ride!! - Absolutely the greatest view of the beautiful New Zealand waterways, Fiords, and mountains. Our driver, Chris, was most entertaining. Our grand teens had a great experience. You must do this for many reasons especially for Lord of the Rings fans.

Best way to see Fiordland National Park - The jet boat/floar plane/e-bike trip is an incredibly special experience for family of all ages (we had 3 generations!). Thank you to Chris and his partners for making our time on the South Island one of the most memorable!!

Bloody awesome trip - a must do! - Fantastic way to enjoy the NZ jet boating experience and explore a remote untouched area of Fiordland at the same time. Thoroughly recommend for all ages - we were a group ranging from 12 to 83 years old and everyone loved it. Jade was a great driver and guide, the views were stunning and couldn't fault the afternoon. It's a truly geniuine, Kiwi, authentic experience. A must do when you're in Te Anau.

Great fun, spectacular scenery and amazing service - Loved it! We had a glorious day and the scenery is amazing and the spins were fun. We had booked a Kepler transfer but half of us had not completed the Kepler. The team were flexible and accommodating to change our plans. I'd highly recommend this.
