About this guide

ShotoverRiverExtreme.com is an independent visitor guide to the Shotover River jet boat ride and the other jet boat rides around Queenstown, New Zealand. We are not Shotover Jet Ltd, KJet, Dart River Adventures, any other operator, or Viator. The site name describes the river and the ride we write about, not a business, and we do not operate boats or sell tickets ourselves.

Facts on this site are checked against the operators' published details, the live Viator listings (including thousands of recent rider reviews) and current visitor information for Queenstown. Prices and schedules move; when a listing and this page disagree, the checkout price wins.

The site is funded by affiliate commissions: when you book through a Viator link here, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. That never changes what we recommend, including pointing out which rides do not go into the Shotover canyons. Details on the affiliate disclosure page.
