Our second time going Quad biking with these guys, the guide Chris and owners are amazing and super friendly! We’ll be back, it’s the best way to spend a sunny avo when the pools are too hot and packed! 😊 Lots of hill climbing, stream crossings, mud and straights! All while you have the most gorgeous view of the river and mountains. Don’t forget your sunnies and sunblock!

Our jet boat driver was amazing- he managed to get every last person on the boat absolutely soaking. His skills had us all shrieking and thinking he was trying to make us crash into giant rocks, only to move ever so slightly at the last moment. So much fun!

The overall ride experience is awesome apart from going up and down the dock as it is not safe enough for older people or families with small kids.

BEST EXPERIENCE EVER!!!!!

I convinced my family to do this for my birthday and it was the BEST EXPERIENCE EVER! There were 7 of us ages from 63-6 and we all loved it including our three kids (6,7,8). The ride it self was so long & worth every cent. THE VIEWS WERE INCREDIBLE. Can’t forget BRENDON also HE’s Gangsta (AWESOME), he made it thrilling and also informative. WE EVEN ENJOYED THE WALK DOWN AND UP FROM THE JET we literally laughed all the way up and down from the jet, slipped a bit and laughed more, and it was the greatest bonding time. Overall it WAS THE MOST FUN, FAMILY/KID FRIENDLY EXPERIENCE with great customer service. I don’t recommend going in barefeet like my husband as its rocky on the way down lol

Despite being very nervous about rafting before the trip, I really enjoyed my time! It's a great way to experience rafting as well as the exhilarating jet boat ride back! The trip started off cloudy but the weather cleared by the end and we also had great views of the surrounding scenery.

Well worth doing. I’d never been on a jet boat and my daughter had a bad experience on a jet ski told the driver this he told us the best place to put her on the boat and made sure she was ok she loved it wanted to go again. All the staff and friendly and helpful well worth doing.

Wow, what a blast. We had such an awesome time. It was a perfect day. Our driver gave us some really cool information about the fault lines that could be seen up the river and some little bits of history when we stopped. Mixed in with lots of at speed twists, turns and full circles it was an awesome experience.

Enjoyed this whole experience provided by a very down to earth bunch. It began with the jet boat ride which took us 20kms down river. (The access to the jet is very steep so may not be suited to people with limited mobility ) Then the 2 hour quad bike experience which covered some varied terrain. I loved the quad bike, very easy to operate. Great for blowing out the cobwebs.

Oh so great! This was my first time on a quad bike and I certainly had fun! Easy to ride and we enjoyed going through the streams. Amazing views from the top of the hill. Jet boat was thrilling, my 11 year old son loved it too. The driver certainly knew what he was doing! Excellent value package, would highly recommend doing both. I am going to bring the rest of the family and do this again. Thank you for such a fun time :)

Great day even though the weather was not good. It was a family outing with family coming over from the UK. The driver of the boat was very skilled, experience and knowledgeable, the whole group of 8 including a 75 year old were talking about the experience that night. Thanks to the team at Amuri for a great day. Might have to try the rafting and jet boating together next time

Had a 10/10 experience with Amuri jet boating. The water and landscape was just magic. Chris was our driver and even though it was fast weaving in and around rocks and trees he was in total control and we felt very safe. Thanks so much team we had an amazing time in Hanmer Springs, Would recommend !!!!
