Alpine Jet Thrills - Braided Shallows (Christchurch) — Local services in Christchurch

"Embarking on a fantastic tour from Christchurch, I was greeted by stunning scenery during the drive. The location was fantastic, matched by exceptional service, making for a wonderful experience. One highlight was meeting Peggy, the adorable Merino lamb, in the incredibly well-maintained garden walk was wonderful. The gift shop stood out with its delicious honey and we got most of out gift from here.

Booking directly, instead of through the cruise ship, proved advantageous as it allowed more time on the water and saved money, blending thrill-seeking adventure with moments of peace, relaxation, and breathtaking views. The museum, detailing the history of the jet boat, was remarkable. It clearly showcased the immense pride and passion Paul and Robin have for the industry."

Gourmet Burger Lunch was wonderful with some yummy cakes at the end. A true home cooked feel and taste that I love so much.

Thank for a wonderful experince a true highlight of our 14...
