Suitability

Who it's for

1
Active FamiliesAimed at families with children old enough to join (minimum age restriction applies), the short duration and high‑energy format make it a good one‑off thrill for mixed groups.

Adrenaline SeekersIf you want concentrated speed and maneuvers rather than a long scenic cruise, this RIB ride delivers repeated bursts of excitement in a compact outing.
3
Guests with mobility or spinal concernsNot a good match — the trip is restricted to those without impaired mobility or back, neck or spinal problems and is unsuitable for people who require walking aids.
4
Expectant and very young childrenDo not join if you are pregnant; children under 5 years old are not permitted, so this is not suitable for families with toddlers below that age.
