Arrive promptly 45 minutes prior to departure time to register, sign participation agreement and hear pre-trip safety orientation. If you miss the safety orientation, we will move you to the next available trip time without notice (which could be the next day) so it is important to arrive on time.
The participation agreement thoroughly explains all pertinent aspects of jet-boating including personal health requirements. Refusal to sign the agreement will not merit a credit or refund.
Wheelchair accessibility - guests are able to use wheel chair onto the dock up to the boat, but cannot bring the chair on the boat. If assistance is required, passenger must provide their own carer. Guests must be able to sit on a bench seat and support themselves by holding on to a bar in-front of each seat without assistance.
Late or no-show participants will not receive a refund. You have 24 hours prior to your trip to cancel for a full refund. Trips can be rescheduled until day of the departure at no added charge (subject to availability).
Guests must arrive on site via their own form of transportation - Whirlpool Jet Boat Tours is not responsible for getting you to the dock.

What To Expect
Experience the natural awe-inspiring scenery of the Niagara Gorge. Learn about the river's historical significance and feel the thrill of Devil's Hole class 5 whitewater and the magnitude of the Whirlpool. The glass dome offers a panoramic view of the river while keeping you from getting wet, so feel free to bring a camera to record the experience! We do not see Niagara Falls on any of our tours. Our tours travel upriver into the Niagara Gorge, through the Class V Rapids at Devil’s Hole and up to the Niagara Whirlpool. The Whirlpool and Niagara Falls are separated by a stretch of Class VI rapids that are unnavigable (and illegal) to pass through.

5.00The ride was fun and exciting. The boat is a beast and closer to a sports car. It was comfortable and dry, unless you want to ride in the exposed bow area.

4.00It was fun and you get to see the whirlpool close up. We did the domed boat ride. The only thing I did not enjoy was that they said to be there 45 minutes prior to scheduled time for orientation but actually they waited until about 15 minutes prior to trip for orientation. At the last possible moment a bus tour showed up and they were able to board prior to anyone else. This left very little space for people such as myself who had booked the trip over a month in advance. I was stuck in the middle and really could not see much.
So much fun! Those folks...
