    Experience the best rafting section in New Zealand on this exciting 2-hour white water rafting excursion from Rotorua. After getting a full safety briefing, including safety procedures and some tips, hop on the raft and get ready for some adrenaline-flowing fun. Float down a deep canyon on the Kaituna River, which is lined with beautiful New Zealand native flora. Admire the subtropical scenery while flowing down the river, which starts off with some easy white water. Then continue on where the river builds in difficulty. Eventually, float right under a couple of majestic waterfalls.  Experience warm water, and amazing rapids with three waterfalls, including the highest commercially rafted waterfall in the world - the 23-foot (7-metre) Tutea Falls. Then head down the river for more action-packed rafting.  After the tour, enjoy a hot shower and check out your faces on the big screen, as you enjoy seeing your professional photos.

Now before starting, i have done rafting in Asia, Europe and this was the latest one. This was by far the best one. The water is so clean and just the right amount of cold. You get swim in the rapids and the highlight being “6m” waterfall Justin and Sam were the best guides we have ever had Must recommend Go for them

Fun and exciting trip down a fast and difficult river. We went just after a cyclone so the water was very high. The tour operators were very fun and friendly but took safety extremely seriously, there was always an extra kayak or boat in support if something went wrong.
