Highlights

Wellington rafting's Grade 3 wilderness river tour is the closest wilderness river tour to any city in New Zealand, only 45 minutes from the city the forest you travel through is untouched ancient New Zealand flora.
The scenery is outstanding with it's cascading waterfalls and 1000 year old native podocarp's reaching to the sky, this tour is the best grade 3 wilderness tour in New Zealand.
The river section is mostly gorge and has over 50 exciting rapids to get you buzzing, the river is flow dependent so catching it after rain makes a more exciting river tour.
We embrace the indigenous New Zealand culture and include interpretation of the Maori culture.
Staff at Wellington Rafting a full of life and live to share the fun loving culture of the river with you.
