Hubby and I are visiting Sydney overnight and have always wanted to do a jet boat ride. We had an AWESOME experience with Thunder Jet Boat. The guide Morgan was great and we felt really safe while having a TON of fun!! It was also informative too with him showing a couple of locations and pointing out homes of some well known people, etc. Zipping around the Opera House and under the Sydney Harbour bridge was iconic and we loved it. Definitely recommend for anyone thinking of doing the tour!! Prepare to get a bit wet ;)

Five stars! Loved the music on the boat, the twists the turns and the driver… all fab! A must do !!
We both had a great time. Morgan looked after everyone so well. I’ve done the thunder jetboat ride before and will do it again.
The best experience of our lives with my daughter!!! Thanks to morgan who was amazing and gave us best trip ever!!! we love you!!! From NOUMEA :p
Awesome experience. Super friendly staff.
Amazing experience, so much fun. Best birthday ever. Ryan was the best!
Had such a great time with Jet Boat Sydney Harbour. The ride was so much fun & definitely got the adrenaline going. The views of the harbour were amazing & the staff were super friendly. Such a fun experience & definitely worth doing if you’re visiting Sydney. Would 100% recommend 😊
Excellent experience, really enjoyed the trip, Ryan was brilliant and interaction with everyone on the boat was great. I would highly recommend
Great value for money lovely staff and Awesome driver Quinn. Got soaked but the sights, spins and overall experience was so cool.
My best mate surprised me with this for my birthday, it was fantastic! The day was perfection on the harbour, the guides, David & Morgan were great fun, we loved every minute. Highly recommend ⭐
First experience and it was the absolute best. So smooth and brief with instructions and safety. Staffs are amazing⭐️
It was the best ride ever it was definitely worth the money would do it again in a heartbeat loved every minute of it
Unforgettable, fun and exciting experience
Jet boat ride was far better than what we were expecting. It was a windy & choppy which added to the excitement. But we were all very wet even wearing the supplied protective jackets so best bring a change of clothes if possible. Guide Ryan was very good. Highly recommended for extreme adrenaline rush with heaps of screaming & laughter.
Brilliant, did this with my 8 year old and he LOVED it so much! Absolutely soaked and we had so much fun!
Fantastic experience and great fun!
Definitely recommended! The Thunderbird jet boat experience was fantastic! My family and I had an amazing time, with thrilling rides, beautiful views, and unforgettable memories at the Opera House
David was brilliant! We did the tour yesterday afternoon with our 2 children and we all had the best time. Looking at my 8yo daughter scream with delight as David manoeuvred the boat for maximum splash, was a moment etched into some of the happiest visions of my life. David really went out of his way to give us all a great time - many times turning around to check on my daughter, giving her high 5s and seeing which way to turn next. We sat in the second row, but any row would be great: wear a poncho if you don’t want to get soaked. Don’t wear a hat or wear one you don’t care about, like my son, and it will be added to the harbour.
Tommy was our driver he was absolutely fantastic 👏 my twin sister and me did it for our 68th and enjoyed every second, thanks Tommy 😊
Absolutely fantastic! Coming back dripping wet didn't bother us at all, it was all about the excitement. Bring a change of clothes & all is good in Thunder jetboat world...cheers
Absolute great experience. You can see beatiful views of the Sydney's Harbor and have a lot of fun with high speed and hear some great stories.
Excellent adrenaline rush. Got very wet though!
it was so worth the money. all the staff were friendly but a huge shout out to Ryan he was bloody amazing . would highly recommend.
A fun & memorable. experience out on the harbour. Do yourself a favour & book it!
A fantastic experience. Ryan was excellent as skipper and made sure we got our money's worth. If you get the chance - do it but be prepared to get wet!
A great way to see the harbour with a thrill! Driver Ryan, was informative and witty. An excellent afternoon.
Amazing experience, I definitely recommend it.
This was amazing. Ryan was amazing. Yes.
Excellent if you like a fast bumpy boat ride. You get quite wet. The boat driver started off quite gently but picked up the abrupt turns and stops once he has assessed the riders to see what he thought they could cope with. Well worth it. Do not go if you do not like getting wet and prefer smooth graceful boat rides. They do give you a plastic poncho to wear which keeps you mostly dry.
I went with a young man who I care for! We had the most amazing time! He absolutely loved it. It was a wonderful experience! Our driver Quinn went above and beyond to make our experience so special! Thank you Quinn. We really appreciate it! Quinn and the whole team were so efficient, attentive, kind and caring. I highly recommend this awesome adventure!
Amazing experience! Stunning views from the boat combined with high-speed thrills. Flying over boat wakes and doing 360s by the buoys was incredible. Yes, you will get a wet backside, but it’s totally worth it. Highly recommended! 👌🏼
It was a very fun way to see the harbour!
We loved our experience with Thunder Jet boat Sydney! It was definitely the highlight of our Sydney holiday. We all loved the thrill of the jet boat and had the best time. John was amazing, he kept us informed before each trick and shared some great information about Sydney Harbour. The whole team was fantastic and so helpful. They assisted my mum, who has a knee problem, getting on and off the boat and John was very thoughtful with my aunty’s hearing difficulties, using hand signals to let her know when a trick was coming. Such a fun experience and definitely one of the best things to do in Sydney, no matter your age. Thank you to the whole team, especially John. We can’t wait to come back and do it again.
Had such a fun time on the Thunder Jet! The ride was exciting, fast, and honestly such a fun experience. The whole experience was well worth it and I’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a little adventure!
Was so much fun! Highly reccomend this excursion. Fun for anyone. Tour guides had the knowledge, banter and the tunes and sure knew how to drive that boat!
It was an amazing experience!a lot of fun!safe!we even have our 8 years old son with us and he literally screamed “the best thing that we did on this vacation!” love the guides love the staff all are so friendly and informative All the best for thunder twist! hope more people will join the excursions and the company get bigger and more successful
Our family of 3 enjoyed the thunder jet. You get a poncho and a life vest. Your face and hair will still get a little wet but not too bad (we sat in the middle row). The staff kindly assists you on and off the boat. I felt safe. You have the option to purchase video footage and/or photos upon return back to shore.
An absolute must-do experience in Sydney! The Thunder Twist Jet Boat Ride is packed with excitement, speed, and adrenaline from start to finish. The spins, turns, and splashes make it incredibly fun, while the stunning views of Sydney Harbour add to the experience. The crew was professional, energetic, and made everyone feel safe while ensuring we had an amazing time. We loved every minute of it and would happily do it again. Highly recommended—don’t miss this if you’re visiting Sydney! 🚤🌊
It was amazing. Had a lot of fun and it was so good to see the harbour from the water. It was so much fun every bit of it. The pictures were very good and had an excellent time.
David was so fun to ride with! He made sure everyone had a blast, and a plus point for all the music he played during the ride! Thank you David!
Excellent experience the guide was great and everyone had a blast. Highly recommended for anyone

Amazing boat ride love the crew and just the event in general dose drifts and cool stunts.
This was an absolute blast! Our guide John was great, spinning us all around and also sharing some fun facts. It was also great to sit in the boat and have a view of the Harbour bridge and Opera House together. Just gorgeous. Fair warning - you will get drenched! Come prepared. Highly recommend! So much fun.
A thrilling experience with Thunder Jet Boat Sydney packed with well-executed manoeuvres and great views of the harbour. We had loads of fun and a special thanks to Isaac who constantly checked on everyone's safety and made sure we were comfortable while keeping the energy high. Will recommend to family friends!
