Took the jet boat tour today(May 27) and had a blast. Due to the weather and water not being as warm as I'd like, I opted to go for the jet dome boat. To say the tour was a blast would be an understatement. Can't really describe how much fun it is to go through class 5 rapids in a... More

The trip throught the Niagara rapids in a jet boat must be experienced as any attempt to desribe it will fall short. Our guide was extremely knowledgable and entertaining. We went in a covered boat due to the time of year and it being cool. Just prior to boarding we crossed paths with a group from the U.S. who had... More

Okay, so this is not for a chicken. If you are contemplating the wet jet or dry dome.......go for the wet jet. It's exciting, fun, & thrilling. I went on a 11:30am ride. It was cold that day, but still it's unforgettable. The whole trip is 1 hour. You gotta live it up. YOU WILL GET SOAKED. Haha They served... More

Went on season opening, May 2013. This is by far the most fun we've ever had in the water without drowning. Tour lasted over an hour and went up the Niagara River to the famous whirlpool. This company stresses safety above all else but manages it so the client isn't inconvenienced. Our highly trained crew provided a great boat ride... More

In our opinion the top activity was the Whirlpool Jet Boat. It was also the most expensive, but worth every penny. Our daughter, who was barely six years old was able to join us, but because of her age and height, we had to sit in the back. Still, there is no place on the boat where you'll be safe... More

AMAZING experience! Worth the price! Bring a complete change of clothes - you will need it! The video that you can purchase after your trip is worth it as well!

I've been to Niagara Falls about 6 times by now, and the most recent time was the first time we did the jet boat - it was a very fun experience. Bring a complete change of clothes, underwear too because you get absolutely soaked; and maybe leave it til the end of your day because you look like crap when... More

We did the covered boat since it was drizzling. What a fun time-you come right into the rapids after cruising down the river. Once at the rapids the boat spins in a 360 degree with the water surging over the boat. If you like fast rides this is one to take! I would go back again!

Pricey, but worth it! You pay at the Aerocar and get picked up by a bus and taken up river to the drop off point, about 20 minutes away along a scenic drive. There are a lot of rules.... under 100 lbs... you can;t sit in the front. Kids under 12 in the middle and toward the back and they... More

This was one of the most enjoyable things I have ever done! The ride was so much fun. It takes you up the cool rapids between Lake Erie and Lake Ontario. The first two rows are the best in the house. As far as what to wear, I would recommend a swimsuit and a t-shirt, the best would be a... More
