i have to say that this was one of the funnest things i've ever done, sure it was a little expensive and you get DRENCHED, but it was well worth it, def. something to experience first hand and def. something i'd do again...but def. bring a full change of clothes, you'll need them more

There are two boats: one open and one enclosed. They will take to the whirlpool. You will definitely get wet, even though they provide you with a body covering and a poncho. Another option is to go to the Aero Car located 10 minutes from here where a cable car goes over the whirlpool. more

This attraction is so highly rated that it almost seems like a waste to chime in with more of the same. However, this really deserves the attention. I really agree with those who note that there is value in the nice drive out of the major tourist area, too. We booked online for the 10am run. We got a nice... more

Seeing this adventure on Amazing Race is what led my husband and I to plan a trip to Canada. Of course we wanted to see Niagara Falls, too, but we have done a lot of white-water rafting and this looked like a great adventure. I have to say that we were very disappointed. I agree with another poster who said... more

The Whirlpool Jet Boat Tour was a highlight of our trip to Niagra! We loved it (one 12 yr old and three 40 yr olds)! Fun and exciting! We got soaked! Nick was our "guide" and he was great! I highly recommend this tour (Note: there are 2 locations on the Canadian side - we heard the tours leaving from... more

This was the most amazing activity possible. The company is first rate with excellent employees. The ride is very cool and truly a once in a lifetime experience. When you crash into the whitewater the entire boat is covered and you will definetly get wet head to toe! My kids 10 & 13 loved it was did my wife and... more

The jetboats is one amazing ride! i have gone three times in the last three years and it never gets old. It is one of the best attractions in Niagara and the only real adventure attraction in town. It is an unbelievable experience because not only is the ride fun but you get to see and hear about the Niagara... more

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
