Win a Whirlpool Jet Boat Tour with Tasting Passes or a Niagara Sunset Cruise

It’s summer! Yes, it summer. So what that we’ve been wet most days? You know the saying, if you can’t beat ’em, join ’em. We also know there are two things that define summer, cottages and being on a boat. While we’re not giving away a cottage quite yet, we can get you on a boat.

Yes, that video has been viewed nearly 100 million times. Seriously! Now what we have you revved up, we’ve teamed up with the awesome folks at Whirlpool Jet Boat Tours and Niagara Sunset Cruises so you could live out your boating dreams.

We’re giving away two prizes. The first is two (2) tickets to a Whirlpool Jet Boat Tour, along with tasting passes at some of our favourite wineries, including Ravine, 13th Street, Southbrook, and Rancourt. Passengers can choose between two types of trips — wet or dry. Guests in open-topped jet boats are guaranteed to return to the dock soaking wet, doused with gallons of water while their boat pilot powers them through the rapids at high speed and expertly spins them through the chop in a complete 360-degree turn. Passengers in the covered Jet Dome get the same thrill ride, minus the splash, and return as dry as they were at the outset.

Tours last approximately one hour. Along the way, tour leaders on the boats also give passengers highlights about the river’s geology and fascinating history.

The second is two (2) tickets to a lunch or dinner cruise on Niagara Sunset Cruises. Cruises take place aboard the Niagara Belle — a fully restored New Orleans-style paddle wheeler — for those who’d prefer to take in the fantastic sights of the Niagara River at a slower pace.

Regardless of which prize you win, you’ll be on a boat! Enter today and don’t forget your nautical themed pashmina afghan.
