Wasn't sure if I was laughing or crying. That was EPIC! - Firstly, Charlie would like to apologise to Jordan for deafening him with her screams. Jerry and Jordan were legends and made both the buggy and jet boat an absolutely epic experience!

Best thing in all of... - Best thing in all of Queenstown!! Go out of your way to do the Sprint Boat and Off-road Buggy. Totally insane but safe at the same time. The drivers can vary the intensity for anyone…our daughter fractured her wrist the day before but was accommodated on the ride. Do not miss this one!

Mud, speed, and a whole lot of smiles - What makes Oxbow special isn’t just the incredible activities – it’s the people. We went yesterday and the team were absolutely fantastic. They’re welcoming, professional, and genuinely want you to have a great time, which makes the whole experience even better. You really can’t not have a good experience there. We did the off-road and jet experiences. The off-road drive was awesome – challenging, fun, and a real adventure. The jet experience was next level. Feeling the G-forces as the boat accelerates is incredible and had us grinning the whole time. They are highly attentive to all the mini humans doing activities. Highly recommend Oxbow for anyone wanting an unforgettable experience with an equally great team.

Next Level - Awesome Experience. The 4WD was really next level. Fully worth it. The team also allows to fly drones to capture the action - and in my case even helped to fly it and do the recording :)

Amazing experience! - I decided to book the jet sprint and ultimate off roading during a solo trip to Queenstown and it has been the highlight of my time here! The staff were very friendly, kind and extremely skilled at their crafts. Safety gear was top notch and I felt safe at all times. Absolutely unreal experience.

Oxbow adventures what a rush! - What a buzz, the off roading was fantastic fun however the jet sprint boat was next level, it was just wicked. The Off-Roader and Jet sprint boat drivers were great making sure we were comfortable while at the same time, making sure we had an awesome time. The only downside is the rides had to come to an end, we wish we could have kept going.
