The Niagara Falls Whirlpool Jet Boat Rides are for the adventuresome – a jet boat into Class 5 Whitewater Rapids! You go right into the rapids (heart rate is now accelerating), get pounded by thousands of pounds of water, and the exhilaration is terrific. (Get the video as you might not do this twice – they cost but worth it). Arrive 45 minutes before departure. You will need to sign a waiver. You do not see Niagara Falls on these rides.
You get a life jacket, booties, ponchos and sweater if required but you WILL get wet and absolutely soaked. You want to do this when it is very warm outside. You’ll get a complimentary locker for your valuables such as a wallet, keys, electronics but bring a full change of clothes with you to the safety orientation. There is a changing room (locked until your boat returns).
YOU MUST BE 44″ tall (note this for kids).
