Reviews of Perdido Key Banana Boat Rides

So fun
We had a great time. The jet ski driver was attentive and trying to ensure we were both safe and having fun.

The perfect vacation
The kids had a blast, even though we arrived earlier than expected they still put us on right away. A definite thumbs up

Fun times
The staff is very friendly and organized. I booked my activities from my phone in my beach chair, walked over at the designated time and they got us ready to go. Everything we did was super fun

Amazing
Staff was the best, 4 day beach vacation and my children 14 and 11 said by far the best part of the trip. Will use them again if ever in the area.

Great
My grandchildren enjoyed the banana boat ride. The jet ski driver was great. My younger granddaughter was afraid at first so the driver pulled the boat slow for her to get use to it and then she loved it. Thank you

Banana Boat
We have never laughed harder than we did while on the banana boat ride! We asked the driver for a crazy ride and he delivered! The beautiful woman working the stand was so kind and everyone was super accommodating! We went two days in a row because it was that much fun!

Fell off and was really scared
I have no doubt that people come flying off these things all the time, in fact, it might be part of the fun of it, but my daughter ended up in the water after falling right off the back and she said the guy didn’t act concerned at all. In fact, her friend that was with her was the one that helped her back onto the boat. The guy never helped. This was after he told them about a possible Tiger Shark sighting. My guess is that was just to build the hype and a shark wasn’t really in the water or you would not have had them out there...but, it still upset my daughter a lot.

Banana Book Ride
My family and I had an amazing time on the beach. The banana boot ride was fun and intense all at the same time. Definitely looking forward to a second ride.

Fun Ride, Bad Service
The lady that dealt with booking wasn’t very friendly and was very unbothered. When you get there, another payment is needed to be made that includes the gratuity and parking fee. I, personally, feel as though that should be included in booking at the time of payment. The captain told us that parking would be free and she still charged us. The team also lack communication skills. We traveled all the way from Louisiana and the only person on the team that showed us hospitality was the guy on the jet ski that pulled the banana boat. Despite the trouble my family and I went through regarding check in, the ride itself was amazing!!!!!

negligent driver
I’ve done raft rides, rollercoasters, and plenty of other thrill-seeking activities like this and have never thought “wow, I might not come back”. The reviews were all so good- but I don’t understand how and have no interest in doing a boat ride with this company again. The driver intentionally hit his own wake, drove entirely too close to the parasail boat, and ignored our VERY OBVIOUS cues that we were done with our ride and ready to get off. In fact, he started going faster once he turned around and I sent a “cut off” signal on my neck and the signal for “time out”. The driver took off before we were even fully on the ride and ready to go, so we already started off unstable. Each turn he took nearly toppled us over and the straps on the ride were not secure. We felt unsafe the entire time. Due to the frequent shaking of him hitting his wake, I had to keep my feet tucked into the crevices of the raft (which was painful) to prevent myself from flying off even though I was holding on with all strength. To top it off, They state that you must pay gratuity before your ride-which I read prior to booking, but we did not get to meet any of the staff prior to riding. I had already paid, and wish I would have just let them take my money and had the opportunity to walk away; but I didn’t even have a good chance to examine the raft for my own safety before he flew off into the water with us. We were nothing but polite the whole time and decided not to interact with the driver besides a “thank you” after our ride. If the ride were even a minute longer, I don’t think my body would keep holding on, regardless of how strong we both were just because of how reckless the turns and jumps were. If you are the faint of heart, do not have optimal upper body strength, and you think it will be “relaxing”, I encourage you to look elsewhere for an activity. This straight up sucked.

Awful customer service!
I paid for 5 riders & was concerned it had switched to the wrong location after purchasing. I called the main number & explained to the employee that we were in orange beach & that my confirmation said we were booked in Pensacola. Told her I wanted the banana boat ride by the Flora-Bama. She assured me everything was fine & that it just shows as Pensacola but that we were booked near the Flora-Bama. We arrived, it was a different company & your company was no where’s near. We spent the money, yes it was my fault I didn’t recheck the location before submitting but your employee lied to me!

Banana Boat Banaza
Our entire family enjoyed experiencing the banana boat ride together. From the time I booked the experience that have been more than helpful and accommodating. They even took care of our little ones and took them on an experience of their own! We loved it so much we paid to do it again right after! Thank you staff you are great!

The service and kindness was great the actual ride lasted literally 8 minutes. I drove an hour and paid 130.00+ for an 8 minute ride..... ridiculous
