Hey guys,
one of the optional extras i was really looking forward to doing in Queenstown has been taken off the contiki website, its called mad dog river boarding and essentially its going down rapids on a body board with a helmet and flippers, have a mate whose done it and he said it was awesome
I’m still gonna go and do it so if anyone else is interested let me know, costs about $139NZD
here is the website if u wanna check it out http://www.riverboarding.co.nz/
cheers,

G’day.
Spewin about the river boarding, have Contiki completely got rid of it or just from the website i was keen as to do it, if they have i may still do it. i want to skydive and do all three bunjy’s in Queenstown too.
I wonder who else is going on this tour, have you guys heard of anyone else?
Cheers,

Anyone up for getting a beer the night before the tour? I’m staying at the mercure hotel and i’m guessing a few others might be so we could meet there near reception at 7

Hey, I’m Carly from Chicago, and my flight unfortunately lands at 11:45 am on the 8th. Going to try and haul to the Mercure to catch the bus before you all depart, otherwise have to find alternative way to our next stop. Hoping for my sake that the check in process is an utter disaster and runs late. Cya on the other side!
