Haast River Safari

In sharp contrast to other jet boating activities and their association with adrenalin - pumping high adventure Haast River Safari provides a leisurely scenic cruise - making use of the jet boat as its NZ inventor Bill Hamilton originally intended - "to explore the back country."

Reflecting the company commitment to quality, Haast River Safari became the first commerical jet boat operation in NZ to gain Qualmark license as an endorsed visitor activity in July 2003.

All of the Haast River Team have a genuine love of the area, and are focused on providing a great customer experience.

- Journey through untouched landscape which remains protected as a magnificent and awe inspiring example of natural wilderness!
