What you can expect

Experience the thrill of white-water rafting on the Tongariro River. Your journey begins with the friendly crew getting you all the necessary gear, including a wetsuit, river shoes, a helmet, and a life jacket. After a quick safety briefing, you’ll hit the water for two hours and 30 minutes of action, going down 60 rapids spread across thirteen kilometres of river. You'll also get to take in the stunning natural scenery, including native bush, volcanic cliffs, and clear blue water, while passing through the more peaceful parts.

Your professional guides will coach every paddle command, ensuring a fun and safe adventure, no matter your previous experience level. When the rafting ends, return to base where you can warm up with a hot shower and look through the photos of your trip. This adventure is perfect for families, first-timers, and thrill-seekers, delivering pure New Zealand excitement from start to finish.
