Kiwi River Safaris, Taupo White Water Rafting Scenic Kayaking
KRS is dedicated to showing you an excellent day on the river. We do this by having helpful, friendly staff and providing top quality equipment and clean comfortable vehicles. On the river we take the time to surf the rapids, swim in the calm pools and play in the favorite spots.
KRS rafting and kayaking guides are true boaters, not weekend warriors or students of rafting. They work both domestically and internationally on some of the world's most technically demanding rivers. Our guides are fully trained whitewater professionals, surpassing the Maritime Safety Standards, and they are passionate about rafting and rivers.
KRS is a small owner operated business. It is not hampered by high overheads, enabling it to provide the best experience at the best price.
