Awesome 👌 Experience
The experience is absolutely 💯 % worth it. The whole trip was sooo much fun and the 360 spins were just wicked. Pedro was an awesome driver, he took the time In spots to talk to us about history and about the difference between all the jet boating companies and the routes they go, he also always checked on everyone after the spins too.. Everything was on time too with our booking . Highly recommend 👌.
