Kia ora Erena, Thank you for your fabulous review & 5 stars too! It was lovely to meet you & your family, we are so stoked you had a great time out on the boat with our driver Mike, he does have a little pocket of local knowledge which he likes to share! We like to think the spins give a bit of a "spritzing" but on occasion a this can be upgraded to a shower! Thanks for coming & we hope to see you again for more Speed & Spins :)

Must do in Rotorua
I went on the jet boat with a group of 5 of my friends and husband, and we absolutely loved it. The driver gave us a tour of Rotorua as we passed historic landmarks and even got a historical tour of the landmarks. Highly recommend :)

Fun on the Lake
If you’re new to thrills this is a great way to ease yourself into it. The Katoa team was awesome, and the kōrero about the area was an unexpected bonus!

Fun and interesting
Great trip that the younger one enjoyed with all the spins and the adults learned a little bit of history about Rotorua that was delivered in a fun and informative way by our guide

Excellent 30 minute adventure
First and foremost the weather couldn't have been more perfect to do this activity. It was warm, the sun was out in full force, mother nature was good to us. At first I thought it'll be just speed & spins only on the lake but surprisingly our driver once he did the spins he would stop and give a commentary of different specific areas around Rotorua and the background history around them. I found this very interesting and informative which increased my knowledge abit more about Rotorua. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our time doing this activity. The staff were lovely and kind. Taking photos of us and the other family was nice and obviously you could buy your photos if you wish. Very reasonable prices to buy your photos too compared to other tourist attractions that charge you ridiculous prices for packages. I do advise to either bring a change of spare clothes or wear waterproof/ quick dry clothing and bring a towel just to dry off. Not going to lie, a few spins can give you a sprinkle of a shower. My partner and I got wet bums but nothing major. As I mentioned earlier, weather was perfect and warm so dried off easily and fast. All in all, we'll worth the time and money. Thanks team for a great day!
