Jet Boating Montreals Lachine Rapids

It’s a wonderful adventure, especially if you love to dive into water and play in the waves! Listen well to the orientation for their advice’ particularly leaning into the waves with your head down! You will get hit by a wall of water! Do Not wear anything more than a bathing suit under their gear! It was a blast but truly not as great as the advertisements will have you believe, you’ll go through the same rapids again and again. We had a lot of fun!

Make sure you bring a change of clothes and take yours off as you will get extremely wet. Was a lot of fun though

My wife and I were acclimating to the Montreal time zone in preparation for joining a cruise and we had a couple of days before we embarked. There’s not too many action options for Montreal, but this looked like a good one. We signed up and on the day of our ride we got there early; that wasn’t necessary so relatively late in the season. There’s were 18 people on our boat, that was expertly co-commanded by captains Eric and Carlos. A young man named Nico did a great job getting and keeping the passengers engaged. We were given a safety briefing and then were given a sweater(s), a jump suit, flip-flops and a poncho - none of which was the slightest protection from water on our upcoming experience. It took us 15 minutes to get to the rapids after which we spent 30 minutes indulging our co-captains, and then 15 minutes back to the dock. The boat was a 1,300-hp diesel that was more than adequate to propel the boat to brisk speeds. My title of Make No Mistake was meant to convey that the water regularly coming over the bow of our vessel during our 30 minutes in the rapids came like dumping bathtubs of water onto the passengers. The water was not a mistake of the captains, it was a feature of the excursion. We received warnings from Nico when we were about to be deluged, but the water was still a surprise. The water at this time of year is pretty warm, about 72 degrees, but the wind from the speed and the ambient temperature in the mid-60s. We had a very nice time on this activity and would recommend Eric, Carlos and Nico for a very wild ride with lots of excitement.

Excellent fun. You will get SOAKED!! But worth it. Bring change of clothes!!

It is sick, so much fun, definitely to be done again. I did it with my 35- and 33-year-old sons, so you can guess my age a little, so it is for all ages, go for it, you will not regret it. Nico, the guy on the boat, is a very funny showman. Above all, do not forget your change of clothes, underwear, and everything, because after the ride you are soaked everywhere 😂

Great fun and very well organized You will get Weeeeeeeeeeet. !!!!!!!!! 🙂

Guide, Nick, was great!! Captain made it an exciting ride 🙌😎. Be prepared to get wet!!! 💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦🌊🌊🌊

Best experience ever was exactly what was expected if you love getting soaked definitely recommend and tour guide was hilarious

This is the 3rd time that I have done this adventure. Every time it has been an incredible time. Lot's of fun....be prepared to get wet!

Was super fun and the captain Jeremy and other dude on the boat Nico were great. Helpful hint, bring a towel and bathing suit/water shirt with you. My only complaint was it says 2 hours and it’s only 1 hour long but it was still worth it
