Went jet boating today for the first time well worth the experience, the driver and tour guide Cieran was not only funny but very professional and put everyone at ease. Would recommend to anyone looking for fun activity.

Great experience! It was my 5th time doing this activity and it gets better every time. The tour was well laid out. Ciaran, who was our guide for the day was amazing.

If you are in Hanmer, it is a must-do!

Loved the quad bikes! Booked through book me app but difference in price wasn’t that significant. Great guides!

Lana Anderson

Friendly team, very helpful.
Our buggy guide Cieran was awesome! Quad bike experience well worth it. And all the staff are knowledgeable and extremely experienced, safety is at the forefront, but still able to have a really good time!
Can't recommend enough, will definitely be back

Booked the quad bike experience and it was really awesome. Health and safety is top priority but did not take away the fun. I had a really great adventure and I'm glad I finally did it.

Long story: I'd always wanted to do quad biking in NZ. But since I lived in Chch, I kept procrastinating. Then my family came to visit in 2023. At first, my dad and uncle didn't want to do the experience. That meant that my niece (my cousin's child) and my grandmother had people to take care of them.

But apparently my dad did want to do it, and it was my mom who decided that he didn't want. So I gave my place to my dad and then I told my uncle I'll take care of my niece, and bought him a ticket too. I thought it's okay, Hanmer's only 2.5 hours away from chch.

I ended up at the animal farm with my grandma and my niece which was fun. My family really enjoyed that experience and I really wanted to do it. My dad especially, had a great time.

Fast forward to 8 months after the trip, I found myself packing up and moving back to Singapore. And a few months later (December 2024), my dad passed away.

Most of my life is still in NZ, including my husband (he's moving to sg soon), so I went back and we decided to make Hanmer a trip with my in laws. And top on the list was the quad biking experience.

I'm so glad to get to see what my dad saw during his last days, and now being able to have this shared experience with my husband and father in law. Thank you Hanmer Springs Attractions.

Really enjoyed the rides and scenic views. Though a bit of travel from Christchurch it was worth it. Absolutely loved the jet boat ride.
