Shotover River Jet Boat Video - Queenstown, New Zealand
Check out this exciting tour video of our adventure down the Shotover River in a high speed, cliff defying jet boat. Their shallow New Zealand rivers outside of Queenstown is where jet boats were invented back in 1954. The Shotover Jet is the latest technology providing extreme control. Although death defying, there have only been a handful of deaths with over 3-million riders over the years.

True 😂.....
My wife and I did the Shotover and loved every minute of it, proper white knuckle thrill ride. Next day we did the Nevis swing, gotta love Queenstown.
Really fun! They have very experienced drivers and it is very safe! Would highly recommend!

You’re putting your life solely on the drivers hand.
I went to New Zealand in the summer of 1974 and snow skied from Queenstown (South Island) to Mt. Tongariro (North Island) and took the Shotover jet boat ride twice. Smaller boats and a more intimate experience, then but what a ride. Bought my 21 foot jet boat trying to recreate the experience.

Had a spectacular jet boat ride in the 80s at Queenstown with guy who was one of the stunt drivers in the film Race to the Yankee Zephyr. He was killed while making the film shortly after.

The film's dedication to those who died during filming was included in the closing credits and reads: ''This film is dedicated to John Rillstone and to Bill Clarke & Colin Robinson who lost their lives on the Kawarau River, Queenstown, whilst operating Jet Boats''.
Adrenalina total show
Very exciting but can be dangerous Those people are braves Try the Sydney Australia boat ride first to get the feel of it then progress to Queenstown New Zealand jet boat ride That is the ultimate
I wanna do that! 😀

Intresting…the passengers and the pilot don’t use helmets for protection (is just one observation, not a critic)…so, don’t have a minimum of risk to chock with the rocks?
