We chose Rapids Jet after checking out TripAdvisor. Staff were outstanding and the boat ride was great and so much fun. Traveling in shoulder periods has its benefits because we just rolled up and got on a trip without booking.

The girls in the reception were so helpful when we arrived and got us checked in for the very next departure. We met with Gazza who was our guide and did an excellent job of powering the jet boat up and down the rapids and giving us the ride of our lives. The spins were fantastic and we loved every...
