Great activity , 1h was enough time for us . Liked that you don’t stuck behind slow jetski as they put u in a small groups and slow one are at the end . Think this is better then hiring jet ski on ur own . You r going very far and get speed up to 100km in safe environment ( some places r shallow and lots of traffic on the river). Also u r encouraged to swap drivers in half way . Highly recommend.

Great activity. Well organised. The team were great, very friendly and plan the tour well by putting you into groups based on the speed you go at. You travel a decent length and get to go pretty fast if you want to! Highly recommend.

Highly recommend! One of the best experiences i’ve had. The instructors are so lovely and welcoming and the experience is great for boosting your adrenaline.

Me and my friends had a great experience sunset sailing. The staff were really accommodating and friendly and kept up a great atmosphere

Fab experience, first time on a jet ski but loved it
