Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Holy cow! What an awesome way to get out on the lake! Taupo Watersports jetskis (not to be confused with LakeFun - they're completely separate companies) come with great gear and are so comfortable and easy to ride. The staff is super friendly, professional, and helpful. I loved being able to get up-close and personal with the Maori Rock Carvings and seeing the white cliffs for the first time. Grab your best mates and go out with these guys, you won't regret it!

Best experience ever a defo must do . Myself and my partner used a voucher for his birthday and had the best time ever . The views are just unbelievable never mind how awsome it feels to go so fast on the lake it feels like been on glass. Hitting the waves are so fun and just super cool to be able to get up to the carvings up close. Amazing staff oh my god they are just a breath of fresh air , everything is explained so well, super safe and amazing vibes . Even take a friend and share this experience on one jet ski, I promise you that you won't regret and it will be a top of the list memory you will cherish forever .
I can not wait to try the dough boats next it looks super fun too

Absolutely loved this experience!!!!! My husband and I went out to view the Maori carvings. He jumped off some rocks rock while I swam. Definitely the highlight of our trip over the long weekend. The staff were incredibly kind to deal with and clearly explained how to drive the jet ski. This is on the list for our next trip to Taupo!

Awesome afternoon exploring lake Taupo on the jet skis!
Super friendly and accomodating staff who made us feel totally safe and excited to get on the water.
The skis and self navigation was very beginner friendly and all equipment needed was supplied.
