-- About this video --
Today we are joining Skippers Canyon Jet for a jet boat tour in Queenstown! Skippers Canyon Jet is not just for jet boating in New Zealand, it’s an experience from pick-up to drop-off with a journey through the terrifying and dangerous road of the Skippers Road in Queenstown. Skippers Road is on the edge of the Skippers Canyon – a narrow gravel road on the edge of mountain sides. Our driver gives us some insights into the Skippers Road as we make our way to the jet boat tour.
Once we arrive at the Skippers Canyon Jet jetty on the Shotover River, we get geared up and hop in the Skippers Jet jet boat. Then the thrill ride begins with near-misses with river canyon walls, 360-degree spins, and fast fast action.
Jet boats are a New Zealand invention and a must-do adrenaline experience for anyone who loves fast things. There are actually loads of Queenstown jet boats to choose from, but the whole Skippers Road experience leading to an isolated jet boat site makes Skippers Canyon Jet worth considering.
So what do you think of Skippers Canyon Jet? Would you consider it as an adrenaline activity in Queenstown? LUK in the comments!

I had an amazing adventure in Queenstown, New Zealand on the world's most exciting jet boat ride!► SUBSCRIBE:
Alright so I've got a free afternoon around Queenstown before I go up to Te Anau tonight in preparation for my Doubtful Sound overnight cruise tomorrow. So I was just chilling on the edge of the lake and saw these guys just shooting around in these jet boats, which look pretty fun. Here you go: KJet Jet Boats. So I thought alright I'll quickly book myself on and see what all the fuss is about. Two Rivers - Twice the Excitement. Well, do you know what, I first of all need to understand what one level of excitement is, so I can then accurately judge if I've 2-Xed my level of excitement? Let's see. Let's jump on and get ready to rock and roll. Oh, safety briefing.
Just make sure we stay seated and keep hold of the handrail.
Pretty peaceful cruise on the lake if I'm honest. Woooooo! It makes it like we're gonna smash into the islands when he does that. Pretty good.
There we go, nice little jet session on the lake. Got drenched a couple of times. So was it 10 out of 10? Was it twice the thrills? Um...maybe not, it was alright. At times it was a little bit like a casual cruise on the lake if I'm honest. But it was good though; I got wet. Enjoyed it, I liked the speed, I'll tell you the bits that really me up, was when he was literally going head-on towards like a...a tree or something in the middle of the water. Or the edges of the riverbank, and then just swerving out of the way last minute. And it was proper...that was proper, proper got me going a little bit. But yeah, it was interesting.
