Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I'd like to give a 6 star if possible! Fantastic jet ski tour and unforgettable experience to me and my wife. Darren is very professional coach and gave us detailed information before the tour began. We booked a 2.5 h
tour and felt excited at the beginning. The wave today is a little bit big and the weather is cloudy, which actually enhanced the feeling of adventure. We decided to end the tour early because of more heavy wind and rains. But both of us feel satisfied and happy without regret feelings. After going ashore Darren explained that today is not a perfect day for the tour and sorry about that we did not get a chance to have a look at the view or animals as expected. However, we are really excited and feel enough in this tour. The jet ski is more exciting and the experience of riding on the sea has been good enough for us. Luckily we saw a huge turtle in the bay and we have never seen such a big one. After the tour you can have a shower nearby and Darren even gave us some chocolate to supply the energy. By the way, the driving of a jet ski is very physical consuming. And I suggest that you should have a good physical condition and strength to control the steering. Anyway, I strongly recommend the tour provided by the Fraser Coast Jetski Tours if you're also one who love adventures and challenge.

Just on customer service alone, Darren deserves 5 stars. He was great at keeping in touch with us in the weeks before our tour and proved he wanted to give us the best possible experience when he recommended a few times that we reschedule due to unfavourable wind forecasts, particularly as we had our child with us.
Stewie, our guide, was very chilled and made sure everyone got the max time and fun on the jet skis. We also managed to spot quite a few turtles but unfortunately no dugongs on the day.
We did the Fraser Explorer tour. 2.5-3 hrs was over before we knew it but we also wouldn't have wanted it too much longer as it is physically taxing.
Between Darren and Stewie, we're confident you're guaranteed a great time.

The team at fraser coast jetski tours are kind, easy to get along with and are verry knowledgeable.
My partner and i went on the Fraser Explorer tour, it was my first time on a Jetski and our tour guide had me riding full throttle confidently within minutes.
The experience they provide mixed with the knowledge and scenery followed by some adrenaline packed fun throwing the jetskis around is an experience you really dont want to miss out on.
We will definately be going again

My partner and I had made a reservation for a specific time and were excited to experience the thrill of jet skiing on the open water. However, when we arrived at the designated time and place, we were told that our session had been cancelled because the company had double booked.
Fraser Coast Jetski Tours (which had known about the possibility of double booking due to rescheduling another party’s session) did not provide any warning ahead of time, and happily took our online booking (and payment), so we had already spent the day getting ready and travelling to the location for our session.
Not only did this ruin our plans for the day, but it also caused us a great deal of inconvenience, as we had made plans around this activity and now had to scramble to find something else to do. We really excited to get out on the water and have some fun, so it was a real letdown when we were told that we couldn't go ahead with our session.
The staff at Fraser Coast Jetski Tours seemed completely unconcerned about the fact that we had been let down, and it was clear that they didn't care about our disappointment, telling us that we should be understanding that the Christmas period is the busiest time and ‘these things happen’. We were told that we could reschedule for another time, but we cannot simply make annual holiday time appear out of thin air.
To top it off, we were never offered any sort of compensation for the inconvenience and time wasted that was entirely the fault of the company. It was clear from our interaction with management that the company prioritises their own financial gain over customer satisfaction.
We ended up leaving feeling extremely frustrated and upset, and we won't be returning there again. It was a complete waste of both our time and money (as we are still waiting for the refund to be processed), and we would not recommend this company to anyone. They are unreliable and unprofessional, and we will be telling our friends to avoid them at all costs.

Overall an enjoyable experience however was quite disappointed to not get a chance to do all the promised activities due to technical issues with the guide’s ski. Not his fault but there was no offer of a refund or compensation for the missed activities. We were waiting around for about 30mins-1hr while he tried to fix the issue and eventually had to leave it and 2 single riders had to double up so he could use their ski. Darren was a great guide and can’t fault him but the way the tours are back to back meant we couldn’t catch up the lost time and the rest of the tour was very rushed. Great experience but overall would probably not go back.

Thank you for your review Harriet. On the day of your tour, our tour guide Stu did suffer a man made malfunction on his jetski which led to his craft being inoperable. In reviewing your photos from the day, the time stamps on these photos show that there was no lost time on your tour. The tour in fact ran over time by 45 minutes to return to you the time lost on the beach with the malfunction. The photos also show that your tour visited all of our usual locations, and engaged in all of our normal promised activities. We feel that under the circumstances we were very organised. Our first priority was to get the jetski operational, and when this could not happen, we arranged to leave it in situ (30km's from the marina) to continue to provide an enjoyable tour for all. Had you contacted us to discuss your thoughts after your tour, we would have tried to make it right and sort out any problems. We do hope that you enjoyed the remainder of your time in Hervey Bay.

The adrenaline, exploration and stunning ocean views were incredible and well worth the money and the experience. We managed to seem some amazing wildlife along the way.
Our tour guide Stu was an absolute legend and certainly made this a trip to remember and cannot thank him enough.
Would highly recommend to anyone to go on a jet ski tour which the the Fraser Coast Jet Ski Tours team.

Crazy awesome time with my wife. Very experienced guide (Stu) who made us feel very safe and confident. JetSkis are very modern very fast and have features I’ve never experienced. They are very user friendly and if you’ve never operated a JetSki, I recommend you try theses guys. We will definitely be coming back for another adventure with Fraser Coast JetSki Tours. Value for money experience 👌🏽👌🏽10/10 guys

We did this trip on thursday and absolutely loved it. Prior to this tour we had briefly been on a jet ski but this tour was completely in a league of it's own in terms of value for money, fun and unique scenery and wildlife. Would definitely recommend to any body looking to explore fraser a bit differently!

This was a first time experience and we had an incredible time. The tour was fun and the tour guide did a wonder job.
My only let down was that the website says we get 20% discount at cafe balaena if we mentioned Fraser coast JetSki tours. However they refused to acknowledge it and said it was not valid.
I only mention this because the cafe owner was really rude and I want to save other people getting into the same situation. If this is not a valid option it shouldn’t be on the website though.
On a whole though, besides the cafe, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Would definitely recommend to anyone.
