5.00Thank you for a fantastic trip on the harbour! We had such a fun time. We enjoyed the few stops around the harbour and found the information the skipper gave interesting and not too long, keeping the tour moving along well. The cost was appropriate, and we felt that we got a great experience for the price.

5.005/5 experience. I booked directly through their website for two and found the pricing was reasonable. We went on the 45 minute jet ride with Skipper Tom and he made the experience far more enjoyable. Everyone on board wanted to have lots of fun, counted down and loved the experience. I was privileged to sit at the front and it was exhilarating. Highly recommend this for all ages but those looking for fun on water.
Fun...fun...fun.....

5.00Big thanks to skipper Tommy and Thunder Boat for a wild ride! I didn't think I was gonna make it cos I'm disabled, but they made it happen so am very grateful. Even if they supply heavyweight ponchos, you will get wet given the 'extreme' nature of the ride - prob best to wear just swimmers and flip flops, bring a towel and leave all valuables safely back on pontoon. All to the sound of 80s hits blaring outta the speakers, the whole of Sydney Harbour will notice you in a bright yellow boat ha ha!
