Fun unless you get seasick - This is NOT for anyone with a weak stomach! I get motion sick easily but booked this for my family. Everyone else had a blast, but I still feel sick thinking about it two days later... They do quite a bit of turns/donuts on the water, and had I known this, I would've sat this one out, lol. My barely 7-year-old joined us and had a great time.

Thrilling! - Experience is as described: 30-45min speedboat ride from Sydney Harbour. Staff very clear with safety advice & driver always gave a signal just before he'd do a spin or dive on the boat so you'd count it in together, and every now & again he'd stop to check everyone was OK. Red ponchos are offered free of charge, but you can choose to get soaked in your clothes, and you will get soaked! I'm glad I chose to do this experience

What a BUZZ! - Such a fun experience. A little nervous at the start but not particularly scary, just great fun!! Glad we took our shoes off. I wore one of their coats but still got a wet butt! Who cares?! Great fun.

Lots of fun. - Oz Jet Boating was fantastic fun. Very focused on safety and fun. The ride was thrilling and the view of the harbour great. Got very wet but we were told this would happen. Recommend using the longer spray coats to stay a bit drier. A great way to see some of the harbour. Would love to do it again.

More intense activity than I expected - The location was very close to the Opera House, so I didn't have to get lost. I told the receptionist that I had made a reservation and was told to wait a while. After waiting for about 15 minutes nearby, they told us that the session would start at 11 o'clock, and people started to gather one after another. Unfortunately, it rained so much on the day that I was not sure if it would be held, but it was also held in rain. I can wear a red raincoat at will, but I didn't want to get wet, so I put it on. Most of them were coming. I also took off my shoes and socks because they would get wet. The red raincoat was sweaty enough to make my clothes and body smell until the end of the day, and I wished it was a little cleaner. The jet boat experience was more thrilling and violent than I expected. It was really cool to have my brother running the boat. There is a service that takes photo shop videos, but if you try to buy it later, it will cost more than $50, so I decided not to buy it. I wish it was included in the service, so I thought that was a bit of a waste. Even though it was a summer day in February, it was a rainy day and it was very wet and cold, so I recommend taking a change of clothes with you.

Great ride downgraded by cheap attempt to make more money by selling video - Its a lot of fun and the team are well experienced. What was disappointing was they foce us to leave phones behind so that they can charge $55 for a video and photos.
