🇳🇿 White-Water Rafting @ Three Waterfalls in Rotorua
What better place to experience white-water rafting for the first time than Tutea Falls, the tallest commercially rafted waterfall in the world? Tutea Falls is part of the "Three Friends," a trio of waterfalls that includes Kaituna Falls and Okere Falls, all located on the Kaituna River, just a 30-minute drive from Rotorua, New Zealand. The Kaituna River also has some of the warmest water in the region, making it an ideal choice for rafters.

🇳🇿 Grade-5 Rafting Trip on the Kaituna River
During our visit to Rotorua on New Zealand's North Island, my dad and I had an amazing time rafting with Kaituna Cascades on the Kaituna River, a world-renowned Grade 5 rafting destination. The Grade 5 classification represents the highest level of commercially rafted rapids, characterized by large, powerful waves, complex routes, and steep drops.
Despite the intensity of Grade 5 rafting, Kaituna Cascades has experienced guides who ensure safety with detailed instructions and close supervision, making the experience suitable even for first-time rafters like me who are up for the challenge. Our rafting guide was highly skilled. Despite his warning that rafts often flip going down Tutea Falls—the world’s highest commercially rafted waterfall with a thrilling 7-meter drop—ours didn’t, thanks to his expert guidance. Everyone in our group stayed safe and sound. It was my first rafting adventure, and I’d love to do it again in the future—though I’m not sure I’ll find another place as fun and thrilling as this!
