Finally some good weather showed up as did we for the start of this rafting trip down the Wairoa. Once we were kitted out, we boarded the minibus to head up to the launch point just below the McLaren Falls. Good, friendly briefing and practice of commands, then we headed down with the other rafts. Good to be able to do the drops and see others doing so too - gives a good perspective of what actually just happened! Only ejected x1 team member of the way down and he was fine and recovered without any fuss. 1 x cliff jump added to the opportunity to test your mettle... Great day out and well worth the effort to be involved. My wife, who had never rafted ever before, loved it and was fine - for a reference point. Recommended.

We had the most amazing time today. Our guide was the best, with his knowledge of the river and a great sense of humor. This was, by far, one of the coolest river outfitters I've ever seen!

Guide had us all working together and it seemed like we approached every rapid in the best position we could. Great job all around. Highly recommend!

The rapids were super fun. The scenery was beautiful. And our guide was the best guide we've had. My family and I had previously rafted and this was the highest level rapids we've experienced

Our guide was great. The whole experience was a breeze, from check in, to rafting. The facilities were clean and organized. Would defiantly return for more exciting river rafting thrills.
