Fun for our whole family - We went on the wilderness Safari, myself, my husband and our 2 boys (4 and 7). From arrival, the team were fab and our guide was great. We all laughed a lot and my boys loved the spins and splashes. So worth it for us and would do it again.

Jetboating in the snow!! - Great ride! We had booked in advance and had unfortunately chosen a day where it was actively snowing! The team looked after us so well- including giving some extra layers, some glasses and then some very much appreciated hot chocolates afterwards! Despite the conditions, the ride was a lot of fun, loved the spins and turns! We have three school aged kids, and it was great for them.
