It's more than a jetboat ride - it's a World Heritage eco-journey into the heart of wilderness New Zealand. Navigating deep into the alpine corridor of Mount Aspiring National Park, the challenging grandeur of the mountains and valleys will leave a lasting impression. Discover ice-capped mountains and glaciers, cascading waterfalls and crystal clear streams and pools, all while enjoying the thrill of being aboard your purpose built jetboat that picks up and drops off at Blanket Bay's private jetty.

Perfect for those that wish to experience the longest Jet Boat ride available in the Queenstown region.

As guests at Blanket Bay, and with the jetty within metres of the Lodge, the driver makes a first stop so you have first preference with seating. After collecting any other passengers from the next stop at Glenorchy, you are on your way!

This journey offers you 2.5 hrs hours of classic Jet Boat action as your expert driver negotiates the shifting shallow braided channels of the magnificent glacier-fed Dart River and adds to the excitement with thrilling jet spins.

To stretch your legs enjoy a short optional 20-30 min walk through the wilderness to capture the beauty of the region.

From the comfort of our fully equipped Jet Boats, you'll discover the spectacular beauty that makes up the unforgettable Dart River scenery, as well as have the option of a short walk to hidden rock pools deep in Mount Aspiring National Park.

You will return directly back to Blanket Bay by boat at their jetty.
