5.00What an experience. Had a ball on the boat with Jake the driver / pilot. We'd recommend the 45min trip. But be aware even with a poncho you will get wet, which honestly just made it more fun. If you're in Sydney and fancy doing something a little different...... do this.
Thrilling ride!

5.00We originally did the 30 mins experience and had so much fun that we wanted to try the extreme adventure. The extra 15 mins is worth the bigger spins and getting to go out further to see more. We had great drivers on both days making it really fun and music was perfect to have everyone amped up.
A must do family experience!!

5.00We did the jet boat ride yesterday and it was such a fun family experience! From the moment we took off it was full of laughs, spins and plenty of excitement. The crew were fantastic and made the whole ride really entertaining. Fair warning!!! You will get wet! My teenage daughter wasn’t overly impressed about that part (haha), but the rest of us thought it just added to the fun. If you’re looking for something a bit adventurous that will have the whole family laughing and enjoying the moment together, I would highly recommend it. Such a great way to make some fun memories!
We were really excited for this and it didn’t disappoint flying around the harbour, doing spins and nose dives the drive
