Programme
We recommend doing Time Tripper first and then the Jet boat trip in case you get wet on the boat.
Time Tripper:
Please check in 5 minutes before the start of your session at the Main Town Pier. You’ll then go down the stairs to watch the show, learn about the legend of Lake Wakatipu, discover what New Zealand looked like during the dinosaur era and then discover the diving ducks, slinky eels and trout that lie beneath.
Jet Boat Trip:
After your Time Tripper session, you are right on time to check-in for your Jet boat ride at the Main Town Pier. You can leave your belongings in a safe locker in our office as you cannot take bags on the Jet boat. It’s now time for a thrilling hour full of adrenaline and beautiful landscapes. Once the trip is over, you will return to the Main Town Pier.
If you don't want to do the two activities in a row, please contact us after booking.
