Kaituna River: Grade 5 White Water Rafting
About this experience
Join a 2-hour white water rafting trip from Rotorua, New Zealand.
Receive a safety briefing with procedures and tips from instructors, then step onto the raft. Drift along the Kaituna River's deep canyon with native New Zealand plants. The river begins with mild rapids and gradually gets more challenging.
Navigate through warm water and fast rapids with three waterfalls. Conquer the world's highest commercially rafted waterfall, the 23-foot (7-meter) Tutea Falls. Then, continue downstream for more rafting action.
After the adventure, take a hot shower and view your photos on a big screen.

HMBotel notes for choosing your ticket
Compare the inclusions above with your plans: admission, a guided visit and a combination ticket may cover different services. The venue name alone is not enough to compare them.
Check the meeting point and arrival instructions before adding another activity. The displayed duration describes the activity; plan travel from your hotel and your return separately.
Booking and payment take place with Tiqets. On that final page, confirm the date, participants, visit language, final price and cancellation rules; an indicative HMBotel price is not a guarantee of availability.
