Tongariro River: Grade 2 Tongariro Explorer

Raft the scenic Tongariro with us and paddle through a series of small, easy-going rapids with an experienced river guide to show you the ropes. Great for families with children between 5 and 10 years

Take on a river-focused adventure that combines moving water, active participation and close-up access to the surrounding landscape.

What to expect

A briefing and equipment setup normally comes first, followed by time on the river with a guide or support team. The character of the trip depends on the grade and route: some products are relaxed scenic floats, while others add rapids, caves or more technical sections.

Why consider this experience

• Active river experience with a strong sense of place
• Guided support and specialist equipment where stated
• A more immersive alternative to viewing the river from shore
