      Goos fun!
      Great experience. Lot of fun. It was quiet and calm as I took the first tour at 7.30 am. Just 3 jet ski in total. We went to the island. Stay there for an hour and back.

      Was a great introduction to jet skiing and definitely something I would recommend. Could do without the smart arse remark on return because I didn't do an amazing job docking the ski, or at least say it under your breath.

      Another 1st in lifestyle adventures.
      What an exciting adventure this turned out to be. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Amazing team of enthusiastic people to take us through the safety and guide us on these powerful jet skis. I'm not sure if this a sensible activity for a 67 year old as my arms and legs ache from today's "workout" 🤣 Would do it again. Thank you JETSKISAFARIS for an unforgettable afternoon 😁👍👌

      Amazing time on the water
      This is a great opportunity, we did the tour out to South Stradbroke bit more than 1.5 hours as we had breakfast and bit of an explore. So much fun, great safety induction, great support from all the guides, just really well organised and executed, friendly staff. We had 4 teenagers and they said it was the highlight of the trip!

      Unforgettable Jet Ski Experience with Jet Ski Safaris Gold Coast!
      From the moment we arrived, the team at Jet Ski Safaris made us feel incredibly welcome and at ease. As first-timers, we were a bit nervous, but Jed and Harry went above and beyond to calm our nerves with their cheerful conversations—especially about the India-Australia game—and patiently guided us through every step of the adventure. Their professionalism, friendliness, and attention to detail ensured our family had an absolutely memorable experience on the water. In fact, we loved it so much that we came back the very next day—and somehow, the experience was even better the second time around! A huge thank you to Jed, Harry, and the entire Jet Ski Safaris team for creating such an unforgettable experience for us. You've given us a fantastic reason to return to the Gold Coast. Highly recommend this adventure to anyone visiting!

    Tom was an absolute legend, took my husband who is a double amputee and my 18 year son out on a tour and, seriously they're both still smiling from the experience. All the staff at Jet Ski Safaris were so helpful and very informative. No DISABILITY, only ABILITY so get up, get out and make it happen

    Was a fantastic experience. Lucas's was an excellent guide and made sure we were all comfortable with the ski, right from our 12 year old to myself a 54 year old nervous mum. We had the time of our lives. Cat made sure we were all versed in our tests and got our licence. Can't say enough about the service and the experience was fabulous. Hope Lucas's boss buys him a beer. Will definitely go again next time we are here.

    These guys are very good at their job, had a very mixed group and they allowed the more competent riders to (safely) let loose, while catering to the slow guys…I swear these guys are part awesome drivers and part sheep dog. Even the 30min tour was enough to wear me out and feel like I had the best experience. 15/10, must do if you’re in Surfers

    Both my partner and I enjoyed this experience as newbies and would definitely recommend these guys for the safari tour. We also got our photos taken during the experience which was nice to purchase and keep. The instructors were friendly and knowledgeable, and we felt safe the whole entire time. We would consider coming back if we ever visited the Gold Coast again!

    From the get go the operators were laidback and make you feel at ease, instructions were clear, about all safety aspects. Our Guides for the day were Connor & Charlie had a blast with them out on the water. Had my daughter with me , she really enjoyed the ride (not so much the speed or bumps). We felt safe the whole time we were out there, 1 user broke down so Connor offered up his ski n Charlie guided us back to their base.
    Would highly recommend this any to anyone that is thinking of doing this activity. So much so we went back for more the next day....Thank you Jet Ski Safari, Connor & Charlie..shot lads !!

    For a 70 y/o, and not my father 84 y/o to be so well looked after we had a blast. The concern and safety of the staff was excellent and I could recommend it to any age group. Safety on the water was paramount for an ex sailor who was used to aircraft carriers, not jet ski's, and the staff were very alert to any concerns o the water.

    Thanks Craig for giving our 2 older teenagers an excellent time on the 30 min jet ski safari. We loved the safety of the guided tour and they loved that they were able to go fast. They had both done jet skiing in Hawaii but said this was even better so thank you! Highly recommend your companyfor safety and fun

    Jet Ski Safaris take safety seriously, the video & written test is very reassuring. My experience on the the jetski was excellent having previously skied at Hamilton Is, Bali & Spain this was the best so far. The Jet Ski Safari team obviously enjoy their work, meeting customers, I would particularly to thank Pandora & Jasper who very friendly & professional adding to my enjoyment

    What an awesome experience. We hired 3 jet skis for my daughter's 16th birthday and had a fantastic time. Safety was taken very seriously with a safety video and test prior to taking to the water. Practical demonstration was very clear and re-assuring and for the duration of the safari we knew we were in safe hands with a number of instructors always close by to help if required. We all loved it.
