Huka Falls River Cruises

Waikato River, New Zealand’s longest river, is home to the most visited natural attraction in the country – Huka Falls. The best way to experience this mesmerising natural phenomenon is to take a cruise tour with Huka Falls River Tours, enjoying unmatched views, up-close and personal, from the comfort of a boat.

Huka Falls deposits a staggering quarter of a million litres of water per second – you’ll hear the roars and rumbles of the water crashing into the ravine below, long before you lay your eyes on this breath-taking current. On your tour, you’ll cruise along the Waikato River to Huka Falls, admiring crystal clear waters, native birdlife, natural hot streams and ancient forests along the way as your experienced and informative guides share the fascinating stories and geology of the area. Capture incredible photos and enjoy spectacular views from the open-air deck and viewing platforms, as the boat approaches the falls – close enough to feel the sprays of it’s waters on your face.

No trip to the North Island would be complete without visiting this remarkable waterfall, so book your place now with Huka Falls River Cruise to explore it the right way!
