BEST EXPERIENCE EVER!!!!!

I convinced my family to do this for my birthday and it was the BEST EXPERIENCE EVER! There were 7 of us ages from 63-6 and we all loved it including our three kids (6,7,8). The ride it self was so long & worth every cent. THE VIEWS WERE INCREDIBLE. Can’t forget BRENDON also HE’s Gangsta (AWESOME), he made it thrilling and also informative. WE EVEN ENJOYED THE WALK DOWN AND UP FROM THE JET we literally laughed all the way up and down from the jet, slipped a bit and laughed more, and it was the greatest bonding time. Overall it WAS THE MOST FUN, FAMILY/KID FRIENDLY EXPERIENCE with great customer service. I don’t recommend going in barefeet like my husband as its rocky on the way down lol

Family fun

Fantastic, Service was exceptional from the moment we arrived. Our driver was amazing and informative, about the boat and the area. The scenery alone was worth the trip. The whole family loved it.

추천합니다

너무 너무 재미있고 즐거운 시간이었어요! 제트보트도 너무 재미있었고 뷰도 너무 멋지고 직원들도 전부 친절하고 좋았습니다. 11시에 가서 12시쯤 끝났어요. 등록부 작성하고 기다리면 구명조끼 해주시고 타는곳으로 내려갑니다. 꽤 긴데 가파르고 미끄러워서 운동화 추천해요. 실제 탑승시간은 40분 정도 인것 같아요. 여름이지만 생각보다 바람이 세고 차요. 날씨 고려하셔서 외투 챙기세요~ 가족모두 매우만족이었어요. 강력 추천합니다
