Whirlpool Jet Boat Tours is officially at the docks, ready to welcome guests back on board for its 34th season of action-packed fun. Guests will experience an unforgettable rush as they embark on the ride of a lifetime through the Niagara River whitewater rapids.

Whirlpool Jet Boats offers three unique experiences for guests to choose from. Those hungry for a thrill-seeking adventure can experience the rapids in an open-topped Wet Jet Boat -or- the Freedom Jet wet seats and feel the power of the water as waves douse them and their boat Captain navigates the rapids at high speed, performing complete 360-degree turns.

Plus for 2025, Whirlpool Jet Boat Tours is proud to unveil its latest custom-built jet boat – designed to offer a personalized experience, whether guests want to stay dry and take in the views or get soaked in the heart of the class-five rapids. Modeled after the popular SM18 Freedom Jet, this marks the second vessel in the company’s expanding Freedom Jet fleet, offering the same heart-pounding adventure with the added benefit of all-weather, family-friendly accessibility. 

The new vessel features 50 interior seats inside a climate-controlled glass dome – offering unobstructed panoramic views of the Niagara Gorge from tiered, theatre-style seating. Guests stay completely dry, making it ideal for families, photographers and anyone looking to take in the power of the class five rapids without getting soaked.

For those looking for the full adrenaline rush, the boat also includes 12 exterior “Power Row” seats located at the front of the vessel – where riders will be fully exposed to the elements and feel the raw power of the Niagara River’s world-famous rapids!
