WHY CHOOSE THUNDER JET?
MUSIC ON BOARD - Picture yourself zooming along the water, barely touching the surface with your hair streaming out from behind you. Then, just add music! Tad-Da! You’re in your very own music video. Everybody’s doing it.
VALUE FOR MONEY - We have the longest time on the lake for the most economical price. Thunder Jet’s trip is 1 HOUR on the lake and also down the Kawarau or Shotover Rivers!
ONE WHOLE HOUR - Your ride lasts a whole hour – GREAT VALUE! Departing right from the heart of Queenstown for your convenience, so you can spend more time on the water with us.
ADRENALINE FIX - Of course, a ride on Thunder Jet wouldn’t be complete without those iconic 360° spins! Not to mention travelling at speeds of up to 85kmp/h!
EXCLUSIVITY - Thunder Jet’s trip takes you down a section of the Kawarau River that is only accessible by helicopter or jet boat! Experience the luxury of exclusivity on your Thunder Jet journey.
