AI summary of 52 reviews
Travellers consistently praise the jetboat ride itself for being thrilling and exhilarating, with the guides and staff members receiving widespread recognition for their professionalism, humour, knowledge and ability to make passengers feel safe throughout the experience. The most striking aspect across reviews is the quality and friendliness of the personnel, who are described as entertaining, engaging and skilled at creating an enjoyable atmosphere for all ages and confidence levels. A common caveat is that the ride results in passengers becoming thoroughly soaked with saltwater, so travellers are advised to wear appropriate clothing and bring goggles for eye protection, though most reviewers treat this as part of the adventure rather than a genuine complaint.
How we collect and publish reviews
Where they come from. Our reviews are gathered from independent review sites and from guests who share feedback with us directly after their trip. They come from people who have actually travelled on the tour. Some longer trips are made up of shorter tours we also sell, run back to back — where a review was written about one of those legs, the review says so.
Why some are edited. Many of our guests travel in their second or third language. Where a review is hard to read, we lightly edit spelling, grammar and punctuation, or paraphrase a sentence for clarity. We never change the rating, the meaning or the sentiment, and we never write a review on a guest's behalf.
Reading the originals. Reviews sourced from public review sites appear there in their original form, and can be read in full at their original source at any time.
“10/ 10”
My third jet boat ride with a different company each time, and this was easily the best. The two girls at check-in were lovely, and Toby was funny, interactive, knew all about the yachts and was great with his signals.
“Great fun for the family”
Captain Hayden made it brilliant: a skilled mariner with great banter who made us feel safe. Plenty of laughs.
“An Absolute Blast From Start to Finish!”
Good stunts, views of the skyscrapers and a really enjoyable ride overall.
“One the edge”
I've done jet boat rides in WA and north Queensland and this one tops them. Friendly staff at check-in sorted our lockers, then it was a short walk across the road to meet Izac, our driver, who was very professional.
“High speed fun!”
A brilliant high-speed ride. We had the best time and can't wait to do it again.
“Amazing”
My son, his aunty and I had a ball. The ladies were nice and Isaac was great.
