hey hey there Stevo and co. Greetings from the land of the mighty Franklin!! Probebly a long shot but i thought I'd try it now I'm home...it's Nick from Hobart here, if you remember me, sweet. Just wanted to give you and your family + friends + company a big THANKYOU for creating one of the most memorable days of my trip and to let you know I rekon your one top guy!! You guys provided everything expected from a tourist company and more, what sticks in my mind was when we waited for that group of folks coming from auckland for the day, apologising to the rest of us even though we all understood. It really ended up being one of the highlights of my trip i've told many people about back home! Be safe but sain!!!! peace, Nick

Rafting in Rotorua is a definite ‘must’! It is one of my all time favourite kiwi experiences, head on down there and get amongst nature with a full whack of whiter water adrenaline.

The guides of Raftabout were great fun and kept up a banter throughout. For the thrilling experience this trip is great value for money. As soon as it was over I wanted to do it all again!

Really enjoyed the rafting and sledging option. Cool, nice owner. Great experience and good deal for doing both sports in one day.

What an adventure! Had such an awesome time. The 7m waterfall was an adrenaline blast in the raft! The scenery was nice, although we were having way too much fun to notice most of it. Make sure you check out Raftabout if you're in Rotorua as it could be one of the best things you do one your holiday! Certainly one of the most memorable.
