Fun, but no gator sightings

We had fun exploring the area regardless. Come earlier in the day for better chances of seeing wildlife.

Loved it.

Great price, easy to book and find the location and navigate the process to get to the airboat. Awesome gift shop and nature center too! But the ride and our airboat captain (Captain Ron) was the best part. Very fun ride, and exciting at times as well as informative. Would love to go again!

We had an awesome time...

We had an awesome time even though it was raining a bit. Enjoyed the airboat tour (saw 3 alligators), and we got to pet baby alligators in exhibit afterwards.

Great experience! Boat...

Great experience! Boat ride was a fun adventure for grandparents down to kids, and the exhibits (especially the gator presentation) were just perfect. Strongly recommend!
