5 stars just isn't enough!
Absolutely awesome experience. From the minute we arrived to saying goodbye. Shannon and Amanda were friendly, super helpful and managed to help a family out that had booked incorrectly and managed to rearrange things so this family didn't miss out! Meeting "Phil Collins" just made the trip! The trip overall was full of fun and excitement. Could not rate it higher!!! Definitely don't miss out on this!!

엄청 재미있고 시간도 짧다고 생각하진 않네요. 다른 젯보트에 비해서 급류를 타게되고 영화 촬영장소도 잠깐 들릅니다. 가장자리에 앉았는데 미스트 수준이 아니고 세안하고 상하반신 샤워하는 수준으로 젖습니다. 맨 앞자리도 재미있습니다.
