The guide and captain made sure plenty of water went over the bow. The level 5 rapids were amazing. The music was also rocking. Better than my expectations and definitely worth the price of admission!

An absolute blast for the whole family! We did the wet jet tour on the Niagara River and got completely, joyfully soaked. The staff and management run a tight, highly professional operation from check-in to safety briefings. Our captain and guide were funny, safety-focused, and gave us the ride of a lifetime through the rapids. Facilities like lockers and change rooms made it seamless. Highly recommended! Great job guys.. bless u all !! Thanks

Great experience. Did the same tour but on the America side prior. This time did it with my finance and he loved the whole experience (so did I). We sat front row middle and was soaked. Our tour guide was Nick who was very knowledgeable and Vinny our boat operator and he did a great time driving the boat and giving us a great experience. Definitely a must do again

Want a rare bathing opportunity in the Niagara River? Book this ride. Just book it! You'll have a time of your life. This is the best thing to do at Niagara in mine and my wife's opinion.

Sabrina did a great job. The entire tour was spectacular but highlight definitely was the helicopter and the boat ride. Worth every penny

What an absolutely incredible experience! Makayla was an incredible guide. She made me feel like I was on the adult version of the Jungle Cruise at Disneyland (in the best way possible)! She was knowledgeable and punny! I cannot for the life of me remember the captain's name - I want to say Sean but I think that's incorrect. Anyway, he did a wonderful job navigating those class 5 rapids taking time to care for all the souls on board while also giving us the time of our lives! It was such a great experience and I'd recommend it to everyone (plus I'd totally come back and do it again)!

Capt. John and guide Veronica were entertaining, high energy and made the excursion fun. The rapids were exhilarating! Don't buy the media package with photos and video. It didn't have photos or video of me (and my group). The photos and video were of the full excursion and everyone as well, there were photos that had the backs of everyone's head. The orientation and actual ride was excellent.
