5.00I was very nervous because I don’t ride roller coasters or anything else. However after speaking to a girl at the counter before signing up for the ride I felt a little bit more comfortable. During the ride I enjoyed more and more the tricks. At the end I was yelling for more 360 degree Spins. Whoohoo, let’s do it. But, keep in mind the ponchos do not keep you dry.
Nasty company, misleading website, bad experience, very unprofessional, don't bother.

1.00Appalling customer service, refusing my daughters' entry onto the boat, saying she wasn't 'tall enough'. This completely stuffed us around, as we'd already paid in advance, and planned our whole day around it, shortening our Hop-on-hop-off bus ride and catching an Uber across town. The subject of a child's height was not mentioned on the online booking form, and I have since gone back and taken screenshots, to re-verify. The tour director was completely inflexible, and I have since asked the company for a refund, only to have it declined. What's more, the meeting point on the website "241-249 Sussex Street" or to say "Near Nick's restaurant" is altogether still insufficient information for a tourist to catch an Uber, and figure out how to get there. I caught an uber to 241 Sussex street, but it was still not clear enough where to walk from there. I had to ring the company, and the girl that answered didn't speak clearly enough, spoke way too quickly, rattling off her long exotic name, and didn't give me a clear indication that I'd dialed the right number. She should've answered with something simple like "Jet Boat! How can I help you?". Altogether, an appalling experience. I am very upset and angry.
Exhilarating, best thing to do!

5.00This was by far one of the best things we did on our recent trip to Sydney. It was not only exhilarating but you also got to see some wonderful sights along the Sydney Harbour including the Opera House & Bridge etc. Our kids absolutely loved it. Got quite wet but that just added to the experience.
Covered in salt water but happy!

5.00We loved seeing all of Sydney Harbor and enjoyed the ride. The saltwater did make it hard to see so maybe offer scuba googles for the people in back. Also bring something to clean your glasses.
So much fun!

5.00It was great fun! Pretty sure I was smiling the whole time. Dylan was an awesome driver. He always made sure we were safe and having a good time. I really appreciated him stopping and allowing us to take selfies with his GoPro. Would definitely do again, but would go for a longer ride.
Great experience

5.00We had a fantastic time on the 30min ride. Thankfully for us the weather was nice and sunny. We sat 2nd row from the front and had a great view. We did get wet which was fine as we had a hot day and a good way to cool down. My suggestion, wear something which may dry quick and ladies, don't spend too much time on make up and hair as there's a good chance you will get wet. You can choose to wear a poncho they will offer to you which may keep you a little dryer. (No one on our ride wore a poncho) It was very safe and the driver explained all about the ride prior to departing. We also paid for the good quality GoPro video/photos which the company takes while on the ride.. overall, we had lots of fun and would highly recommend it.
Best boat ride 🙌
