5.00It was amazing and the pictures and videos we received also show how good it is. I sat at the front so when he done a nose dive I didn’t get as wet as people at the back.
Disappointment underwhelming. Nothing like videos.

1.00Very underwhelming. Nothing like videos. Hardly even a drop of water splashed. The spins were near slow motion. Even my 11 year old nephew was expecting more…… I’m not sure all drivers are so timid, but we wanted an experience not a calm ride……. Being honest very disappointed 😟
Exhilarating ride. Must do.

5.00Great fun for all ages. You will get wet! Really wet. Although it was a half hour ride, it could last another half hour.
Great fun but prepare to get soaked!

4.00This was good fun but you do get absolutely soaked, even with wearing the poncho! Most of the ride I had to keep the hood on and could barely see with all the sea spray in my eyes! We all had to buy dry clothes afterwards for our meal reservation, bear this in mind and take a change of clothes!! Kids enjoyed it though, it was a thrill ride with lots of giggles!
Wet n wild ride!

5.00The jet boat ride is an awesome experience, if you haven’t already been I highly recommend it. Wetness is guaranteed, so if you have nice shoes take them off.
