I wasn’t sure about tackling a 7-meter waterfall, but I’m so glad I did. The Kaituna River was thrilling from start to finish, and the guides were absolute legends—funny, encouraging, and really skilled. Booking was quick and hassle-free, and the whole day felt so well-organized. Easily one of the highlights of my trip to Rotorua.

What an adventure! The Kaituna River rafting trip was pure adrenaline, especially the epic 7m Tutea Falls. The team was amazing, keeping it safe and fun the whole time. I booked with Backpacker Deals, and the whole process was so smooth—it couldn’t have been easier!

First off this was a great priced deal from backpackerdeals! Kaituna rafting was amazing, entire experience was a blast. 10/10, thank you for this venture. Looking forward to my next thrilling journey with you guys because I loved it! In fact I liked it so much that I had a dream the other night that I was on a raft in the middle of an orange ocean.. turns out it was just a fanta sea
