What To Expect

We'll take you up to our launch area on Coronet Peak, a quick 20 minute drive in our courtesy transport and proceed to get the equipment ready while our ground crew gets you into a helmet and harness. Your pilot will then take you through a briefing to explain what you need to do and then it's time to launch into the sky and fly free like a bird. Landing takes place on the valley floor about 3.7 km away from the take-off point. We pack up the equipment and take you back to town.

City Boat Tours wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through City Boat Tours over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
