This was an exhilarating ride. It costs a bit more than the maid of the mist but is well worth it. I felt safe at all times. Do expect to leave soaked to your undies. The waves that come on board the boat were so huge I thought they might knock out my contacts but they never did. It is... more

This was awesome!! that's all there is to say. Everything they say in their ad is true. Hamilton 360 degree turns are sop much fun and what is better than getting drenched. I wore the poncho they give you to stay warm and I wish I hadn't. My only regret. It doesn't keep you dry by any means and kind... more

A must do!!!!!! You will get wet! And the drive to it was nice. Good to get away from the touristty Clifton hill. They take great pics. The only ones we actually bought from a week in Ontario. #1 thing to do in NOTL and Niagara! Don't forget to bring a towel! more

Went on the "wet jet" boat from Niagara-on-the-Lake in June. The drive there from Niagara Falls was very nice and only took about 30 minutes. The staff were very friendly and professional and I felt like I was in good hands at all times. The boat itself is big - it must have held about 60 people. The trip starts... more

This boat ride is extremely thrilling, you will get wet, Although they do have a boat that is covered but the fun of the whole ride is to be in the boat without the cover. The boats are made specially made for this area. As the powerful Jet Boat speeds upriver, making their way into the breathtaking stonewalled canyon that... more

A real adrenaline rush! And it is not just for kids...everyone will love it. Just make sure you have some dry clothes to change into afterwards! If you can, sit in the front. more

Me and my gf were in Niagara Falls for a few days. We had seen the jetboat while riding another attraction (the Aero car), and the jetboat looked like a cool adventure ride. We phoned in our reservations to the Whirlpool Jetboat tours, giving them our CC # to reserve a spot on the 10am ride, which is the first... more

Our group of 4 (3 adults and my nine year old daughter) rode the "wet jet" in late September. Great fun. Not a dangerous ride but a bit of a thrill ride. Remember to bring a set of dry clothes and a beach towel. You will get wet. You may also want to bring your own "aqua sox" or "surf... more

We went to Niagara in Sept. Due to the weather, we opted for the enclosed boat. They keep the windows up/open for most of the trip, but close them as you enter the rapids. Although we were supposed to stay dry, the hatch above me wasn't secure, so upon entering our first wave, I got drenched. The problem was quickly... more

As a local resident I have done everything there is to do on both sides of the border in the Western NY/ Southern ON area. This is by far the most exciting attraction our area has to offer. The ticket price is a little off- putting at $50 per person but man is it worth it. I have only been... more
