The guide was great! Even with issues with one of the boats they accommodated people. Very professional
We booked a 30-minute ride but got upgraded for an 1-hour one as there were not enough booking for 30-minute ride. We were a bit hesitant because we had a 3year old with us, but I am so glad we went ahead with the upgrade instead of cancelling/rebooking because it was so much fun! We all loved it. Driver Josh was super experienced, interesting to listen to and fun! Will go back anytime ☺️

Great for families
We booked the 30min ride and it was perfect for us as we had two young kids. This was their first jetboat ride and they got to experience the thrill of the spins, whilst not being on the boat for too long (compared to 60min ones).
