Highlights
For a truly memorable visit to Niagara, take a thrilling journey down the Niagara River on an open-air jet boat. There's no better - or wetter - way to enjoy the beautiful scenery and amazing white water of the Niagara River. You will experience what we like to call our white water playground where the Class V Devil's Hole Rapids will get you completely soaked. After that thrilling experience you will travel up the river to the farthest point in the trip where you will see the famous Niagara Whirlpool. The Whirlpool and Niagara Falls are separated by a stretch of Class VI rapids that are unnavigable (and illegal) to pass through. This tour departs from the Canadian side, and you return to the same location.

Loved every minute of it that I did it twice. I would highly recommend trying it and sitting in the first 4 rows, as you will get wet
5Niagra whirlpool open jet boat tour
Great people work here. Awesome fun. You do get wet. The first four or five rows especially. Ponchos and pants help quite a bit but the feet didn't stand a chance. Very helpful young lady helped me get out of the boat as well as in the boat due to a hip surgery earlier in the year. Cannot thank her enough.
5Highly Recommend!
Such an AMAZING activity! It was so fun and the perfect day for it. Our boat captain, Grace, was great, and so was our boat guide, Chris! Everyone was friendly and ensured we all had the best experience possible. Never done anything like this before, but it was so cool. Would definitely recommend!
3Brutal
It’s brutal , I’ve suffered an injury from the sheer force of water whipping my neck back and I have now torn something or trapped a nerve . These kind of injuries are to be expected when you decide to do such activities. However I feel that the crew should advise you to keep your head down !
5Amazing adventure
This boat ride is super fast. You will get drenched. Do not wear nice clothes or shoes. The water is super cold. McKayla and Jason were amazing.
4Great Experience!
Chris was a fantastic tour guide! Great experience!

About Niagara Falls & Around
Niagara Falls is where the Niagara River drops between Ontario and New York, with wine country, historic towns and a deep gorge close by.
The Niagara River plunges over the Niagara Escarpment in three falls: the curved Horseshoe Falls, mostly on the Canadian side, and the American and Bridal Veil Falls across the border in New York. Boats carry passengers to the foot of the Horseshoe Falls, and walkways follow the rim of the gorge. After dark the water is lit in changing colours.
