Skippers Canyon Jet Boat Tour

The trip begins with a guided drive into historic Skippers Canyon via the infamous Skippers Canyon Road, carved out of the vertical rock face by miners over 120yrs ago. Journey slowly down the historic and stunning road, there is ample opportunity for photos along the way as you weave your way through the Southern Alps to the Shotover river at Deep Creek. Arriving at Deep creek, gear up with life jackets and spray jackets then sit back, hold on, and try to relax as your experienced boat driver navigates the sheer canyon walls along the Shotover River. You will feel your adrenalin surge as you power deeper into Skippers Canyon through the narrowest canyons on the Shotover River. Your highly skilled jet boat drivers will manoeuvre the boat just inches from the sheer canyon walls and keep the excitement levels high with speeds in excess of 80kmh and a series of full 360 degree spins.
