Itinerary
Guests will need to arrive 30 minutes ahead of scheduled tour time. During check in your guide will ask for drivers licenses and boater safety certificates/licenses required to operate the jet ski. Each guest would then need to fill out a waiver. Tour will begin with proper operation of the jet ski on the floating dock. Your guide will also provide hand signals to be used throughout to ensure if you need anything you know how to get their attention. Once the safety briefing is completed, your guide will launch you into the water and you will begin your 30 mile route east into the 10,000 Islands! The tour starts and ends in the same location.
