• ZORB for Date Night

    An Unforgettable Date in Rotorua @ ZORB

There’s no better way to get closer to your partner than rolling down a hill in a giant inflatable ball filled with 40 litres of fresh water. ZORB is the ultimate icebreaker, laugh-generator, and memory-maker.

Whether you’re on your first date or you’ve been together for years, ZORB is a great way to mix things up and turn a candle-lit dinner date into a truly unforgettable experience.

Why ZORB Makes an EPIC Date!

It can be hard to pinpoint what makes a date “perfect.” Is it the conversation? The atmosphere? Or is it the shared adrenaline and side-splitting laughter that breaks the ice and shakes off the nerves?

ZORB is an all-fun activity that makes for an amazing story when your in-laws ask, “What was your favourite experience together?” There’s no competition and no pressure to perform — just you and your date enjoying the ride.

 

What is it Like to Ride Together?

Just you and your boo, side by side in a giant inflatable ball. What could be more romantic?

Being inside a ZORB is unlike anything else. You’ll roll, slosh, and slide down the hill — but you won’t go upside down or tumble. The water inside the ball keeps you at the bottom and ensures a smooth, comfortable ride.
