Jet Boating Gold Coast – Jet Blast Reviews

4.6 Rating 54 Reviews
This was a very serious matter. At first the accommodation assignments were not good at all, it divided families and put people on board. Second, the ride itself was a bit rough and uncomfortable, especially for those sitting in front. I was sitting in the front and I didn’t even get a single drop of water at all. I only count as five drops of water and that's all. There were only two stunts he did, one he just made a simple 250 degree turn when the front row was completely wet. And one just jumps up and down. The driver is not very skilled and does not make the ride enjoyable. To put it bluntly, I took this trip about five years ago and that was better with WAY than this one in a mile, with everyone getting really wet and very scary and powerful. (Ps. No one was scared during the trip And did not make any special requests to be intimidating) I do not recommend this jet boat ride to anyone. This was very poor and I was not wet And I'm not happy. I did not exaggerate, I came out completely dehydrated, my skin was smooth and dry. This is a split and a waste of money. Don't go any further.

I took my husband and 4 children to the pilots on his birthday, while I was at the top where I searched for a jet boat to find the right place to take him. These guys stand out because I really wanted to get the pictures and video of our wonderful gift from Dad. When we looked at security and everything we needed to know, we signed a piece of paperwork and all this time we were reminded to smile and look at the video camera on the boat. We were so happy. When we were on the boat our driver also made sure that it was brand new when there was a camera and we had a lot of practice watching and flipping it. After our ride we were so happy to go shopping for our photos and videos .... The kids really ran ...: (we got to the station and saw a lot of pictures lined up on the bench. We saw ours, laughed and asked for a video too. because there was a technical problem .... The driver was always pointing at the camera reminding us to smile ... And there was no video. Annoyingly: I beg this lady "sorry" and cruelly told me, "I'm sorry it doesn't work". If I didn't know there would be no video I wouldn't give these people my money. Jet boarding was literally something we'd like to forget. which you use.

Amazing. Loved the ride and Macca was a phenomenal host. Eventhough, we were running late to get on our spot but they held up the ride so we could make it ! Overall it was amazing.

We went as a party of 4. We were picked up at our hotel on time in a small van that was clean and well delivered. At the docks we were given a security presentation and were forced to put all your belongings in a protected box before departing. You are not allowed to go with the cameras but they may just take a picture before you leave and all the information is recorded, These are available for purchase at the end of your trip. You are warned that you are wet. You can bet on anointing. Wear swimwear if you have one and take a towel. There are many rides available. We picked up from the big beach on a 1 ride (yellow ride) and were picked up at the surfers paradise hotel. Not long before you exit a speed limit and turn around and turn around. When you put on your sunglasses or hats you hang on to them or they will end up in a drink. I found after the first spin my sunglasses were wet inside and out and while drying the salt made it hard to see. We trusted our driver but after an hour we were ready to get off. She is very professional and safe but very funny at the same time.

This has been on my bucket list for many years and I was very excited when hubby surprised me. Navigating the whole jet boat was amazing that we had the front seats and the driver was very helpful. This should be given to you! A great way to see the Gold Coast. It was a good experience. Highly recommend this for those who love adrenaline hit.

2 parts: 1. The Paradise Jet ride was a great experience for our entire Australian trip so far. I loved it! 200% enjoyed this and highly recommended! We were lucky to get the front line and this was a world experience. It's amazing! 2. Helicopters were sent to the Sea World Helicopters and became the standard. We knew it would be 5 minutes but the Pilot said nothing to the rest of the plane and was checking messages while he was on the plane. Sadly the Gold Coast is very beautiful. Some enthusiasm from the pilot would make a difference. Traveling by helicopter in a nutshell has been a daunting task and it is best to take a single Jet trip, an amazing experience .... highly recommended !!!

"The team in Paradise Jetboat is well organized and obviously enjoys their work, and who wouldn't if they were speeding up and entertaining their guests. We had a mid-day start and made the best use of sunscreen as you would not be able to use the hat at the speed involved. Our driver - Declan was the entertainment presenter, and the shouts of joy and the "quick ride" proved to be all the fun he had. And Declan was fair, he was able to immerse everyone (including himself), and yet we always felt that he was completely safe and secure. It's just amazing what these boats can do, The helicopter section flew only 5 minutes by SeaWorld Helicopters, but it was also a great way to get a whole view of the Gold Coast and be seen as a very efficient organization. Very modern equipment. A house where it's amazing but not as amazing as the actual walk .The jet boats are cool. Great service everyone has been very helpful, it is great to see people who love jobs there Thank you all for a great experience. "

I got on a boat as part of a package agreement and I did it before in New Zealand but this one was the best because it is in open water and can make spins etc ... try they are lucky to do that every day is the worst experience you will want to try, and especially with these people making the trip better our captain was Macka he was joking and making a big trip until we saw a dolphin (faint hahahahaha) yay !!! Even the desk lady Declan was very supportive, friendly and helpful !!! It was even raining when we went out but that didn't stop it from being fun and it was worth it !!! Thanks for the good experience guys I'm sure we'll be back !!! üòè
