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 American side, and you return to the same location.

    Went with 9 and 10-year-old boys and they could not stop laughing and cheering. You will get wet and the water is cold. Worth it! Crew was excellent!

    Captain Mike and our guide Hannah made our tour AMAZING! We drove up from Kentucky to experience as much of Niagara Falls as we could and stumbled upon the tour. This is a bucket list adventure! Make sure you bring extra clothes! You will be head to toe soaked 🤣. Loved this entire experience!
