1st time airboat tour. AWESOME

Published on Jan, 2025

Excellent time with Justin on our 40 min. Airboat tour. He was very informative. Saw a few gators and some interesting wildlife. Would definitely do this again and would highly recommend. The cost was very affordable.

Captain Justin was great we seen a lot of gators. We seen an iguana and beautiful birds. We really enjoyed the exhibit afterwards too. We got to hold a gator.

The 8:30 was less busy than the 1:00. It was a great experience but we did t really catch anything. My son went back out for the 1:00. The crew was great and helpful.

Entertaining and Educational for the Family

Published on Jan, 2025

This was a really fun and educational experience for the family. The boat ride was exciting, and the guide shared interesting info about the Everglades on the trip; he was also funny, so the trip felt entertaining as well. My little one and teenager both enjoyed it!

It was cold so we didn’t...

It was cold so we didn’t see any gators. The captain did try to find and point out as much as he could though. It would have been great on a better day.
