We had great fun!
Super friendly and much more technical than other rafting we did on our trip. Fewer rapids but thoroughly enjoyable. Would highly recommend.

Great white water rafting company.
I was very nervous but they gave great instructions and we loved every moment. Tea and scones much appreciated on our return to base.

Loved it.
We took two young kids along. Felt safe the entire time. Tim was brilliant. Pretty full on for the kids, but they wanted more. Can't recommend them highly enough.

Not scary (for a 57 year old with a much younger wife :-)....) apart from the jump off the rock below the rapids.
But floating downstream was great and the guide (Lisa) was just great. $130PP.

Grade 3/4 (weather dependent) rafting down Buller river.
Great fun, good for people with no previous experience. The optional cliff dive was amazing!

My husband and I had a FANTASTIC time with Ultimate Descents!
Our guide was SUPER! She made me feel completely at ease as were heading into these amazing rapids. A complete explanation was given to us on all the possible things she would/could yell at us to do. I can't wait to go rafting again! Thank you!!!

What an experience!
Just a totally fantasic, fun, thrilling few days on the river with an awesome bunch of people. Never been white water rafting before, went through some bigger grade rapids, just about wet my pants at some points but the situation was always explained to me, briefed on why, where, how and I felt so looked after and safe, in awe of the totally experienced guides,(they know their shizz) never made to feel like a punter! Super well organised, stunning scenery, heaps of laughs, loads of fun, awesome adventure! 10 outta 10 for the fun/thrill/adventure factor, these guys rocked my world!

Our trip with Ultimate Descents was by far the highlight of my life.
The scenery was so amazing, it blew my hair right off, and the whitewater rapids made me glad. The guides were awesome, the girls had great legs, and the guys were so ruggedly handsome I just can't get over it! Thanks U.D!!!!!!

Nice people that work there, but didn't seem like Grade 3-4.
Didn't get to go down one of the rapids because they said it wasn't safe. I've been on Grade 3 trip that was way more exciting. Overall good time though.

Had a superb morning with the UD team -we're a first time rafting family - made the kids feel really comfortable and safe to do grade 3 section.
Beautiful day, great company and all in all very good fun. The dip at the end a bit cold though!! Cheers Lisa, Gus, Danni and Sandra - you're a grand team.

Great fun for a first white water rafting experience.
We will definitely go again with Ultimate Descents, except now that we’ve done the class 3/4 rapids, next time we’ll one of the longer trips so that we can face some bigger rapids!
Couldn’t have been better, considering we went in April. Tim was fantastic and we got to do some surfing and rail slides. Absolutely awesome.
