The whole team were very friendly and fun. Great ride experience and loved all the wildlife visible including some baby alligators which is phenomenal that the guides and boat pilots could even find them.

Be ready for a great experience it was for my sons 14th bday and we decided to go see gators and what other way to do so. The ride was smooth. We seen the nest and some gators. A couple of funny looking big birds. 10/10
We had a great time on the night ride. We saw quite a few alligators and the whole experience was very positive. My son was allowed to sit next to the captain and loved every minute of it.
Great. Loved the driver. He could spot gators from yards away. Knows the difference between a gator and a log.
My family and I just drive 40 minutes for this gator boat tour and did not see one alligator, even though their company name is Gator Airboat Tour. I am very disappointed in the time and money wasted in this groupon.
It was fun. I thought the price for 30 minutes was fair and i don’t think I’d want to do more than 30 minutes on the loud airboat. We saw some alligators and the guys running it were very nice. We got to hold a baby alligator.
Amazing experience! Definitely worth every penny! We did both the the day tour and came back a few days later for the night to where we loved it so much. While the daytime Gators can be hit or missed, the view is breathtaking. We counted over 20 Gators seen on the night tour, even caught a glimpse of a 10 -footer! I would do it over and over again.
The experience was amazing, we travel to Florida every year for our family vacation. I'm always seeing the airboat rides advertised and wanted to give it a try. The location was easy to find and the crew was very helpful. The airboat ride was amazing and the view was so beautiful. We'll definitely be coming back 😊
It was so worth it we did see a lot of alligators. Great customer service. We got to hold a pet alligator afterwards
We booked this with a coupon company. It was a short ride on a boat and that was it. No alligators, just a few birds. The trip is basically a boat ride. The name suggests gators but it’s got nothing to do with them really. Don’t get me wrong, the people were nice and the boat is cool. But don’t expect to see an alligator…
It was so colorful and the horses were so beautiful. I really enjoyed the jousting and the sword fighting. The food was actually good. The roast chicken was very moist. I would recommend going with your family. I will definitely go again.
Great experience! Saw loads of birds and some little gators! A wild ride with a very knowledgeable guide :)
I’m not going to lie we was nervous at first but the person who checked in was so cool he even let us hold the alligator and take pictures, he even gave us history about the waters and alligators and their upbringing it was very fascinating, to be honest I loved it. My daughter was really nervous but he made sure to make her feel very good and calmed her and she held the alligator that was really cool as well, I give this place 10 stars, also that boat was so loud but I still enjoyed it
My family was visiting from Southern California and they were very excited to experience an airboat ride. We had a fantastic time and saw so many alligators and other Florida wildlife! Boat operator was experienced, knowledgeable and made the excursion so much fun! Highly recommend 🐊
We took the Nigh Time Airboat Tour and it was the BEST! During the one hour tour, we saw dozens of gators of all sizes. We learned gators are more active at night. Captain Jay knew where to find the gators using his high-powered light. It was a night we won't forget.
Great tour that took us deep into Northeast grasses of East Lake Toho. Stopped often to see turtles, birds and (of course) quite a few gators. Guide was great at pointing out hard to spot gators. We got some great pictures.
Disaster, they did not respond to the booking, I was promised a refund from Viator,they didn't respond after they agreed to the refund, this will be my last time with Viator, avoid at all costs
Fun ride. The best part actually was meeting up and petting the baby alligator. The staffs were very helpful and friendly
We had a great tour! Saw gators and birds and our tour guide, Toby, was awesome! He was knowledgeable and so patient with my nervous kid. He even let him sit up top with him! 10/10
Fun family experience! We enjoyed the staff and seeing the wildlife. They also had a baby alligator we got to hold.
This was the best airboat ride I have had of the three companies I have used in central and East central Florida. The Captain/ guide was very knowledgeable and he knew his business.
I had the most incredible experience on our sunset fan boat tour! Captain was absolutely awesome—so friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about the area. The views were stunning as the sun dipped down over the water, lighting everything up in warm, golden colors. We spotted wildlife, felt the breeze, and had plenty of laughs along the way. The boat was comfortable and the ride felt both exciting and relaxing at the same time. You could tell the Captain really cared about making sure everyone had a great time. I highly, highly recommend this tour—10 out of 10 experience! 🌅💛
Absolutely awesome! We couldn't have asked for more fun! We did the night ride! We probably seen atleast 20 gators. The driver was very familiar with the area and where the gators are. So much fun! Do it!
A very reliable service given the staff were too good in explaining about the things we asked about the ride and alligators thank you sir hope to see you again
The folks who run this are awesome. Jay did a great job of finding the alligators. Beautiful views. Take some time off from the parks and enjoy the natural beauty of the area!
Great air boat ride of some Everglade marsh. This tour is about nature preservation so they do not feed alligators or attempt to attract them. We saw one wild gator though, along with a bald eagle, egrets, and blue heron!
This was an excellent time. The crew was great and there was so much to see. It was well worth it, I would definitely do it again.
Very friendly and genuinely a great experience for all the family to enjoy, both interesting and educational delivered in a fun way, meeting little Steve the baby alligator was a bonus.
Event was very good awaiting on weather we could get a credit from the company for a sick adult who couldn’t make it. Only down side
Very nice, friendly staff and very knowledgeable. Learned a little bit about the eco system and inhabitants
Really fun relaxing excursion. Done with adults and a 1 year old, staff knowledgeable and helpful. Great to see small alligator on site and get pictures with
Very easy to sign in at the office for your ride! Great scenery and it was easy to board the boat and you had room to be comfortable. I would recommend this 30minute airboat ride.
I liked but maybe 40 minutes is better but everybody is friendly and nice person we enjoy the ride they do te best they can do
It was relaxing and the ride was exciting as I had never been on an airboat before. Not many critter were out to see.
Everyone at this establishment was incredibly friendly and welcoming. Taught us about some of the local wildlife before the ride itself. Came around midday so wasn't sure we'd see any gators due to the heat. But we saw two! Also got to hold their little gator pet. Awesome experience as in the UK we have nothing like this. Would recommend to any holiday makers looking for a real Florida experience away from the theme parks.
Great little airboat tour, saw some nice wildlife and a glimpse of some little gators. Management, guide and Pilot (?) were really friendly and informative. Rushing through the reeds and then on the open water was great. Would recommend for when you want to see something other than theme parks.
From start to finish very welcoming with everyone despite some of us not taking part exceptionally interesting and informative with photos, stories and facts that made this experience fantastic
The gentleman at the counter was the most fun and kind man. Ornery but so kind. This is not much of a learning tour since you wear headphones. We were at the wrong season so only one gater at a nest. The drive was kind and killed the engine so we all could see and learn for a few moments in the heat. I highly recommend this company.
This gator experience was fantastic. We got the full 30 minutes out on the water, the drivers of the airboat were very knowledgeable and you were given lots of information about the wildlife around the area. You felt very safe on this airboat and could tell the drivers were experienced and knew what they were doing. We got to hold a small gator named ‘crazy Mike’! And there are also a few small things to purchase in the shop and souvenirs, although not many of them. We didn’t get to see any large gator’s as it was so warm they were all being nocturnal at this time. We did get to see some small 10 month old gators which were very cool, and also a gator nest, which again the drivers were very knowledgeable about and could tell you lots about. We also got to see an Everglades snail kite - of which there are only 2,000 left in North America. So this was very rare and awesome to see. I have been on two airboat rides precious to this one, both in Miami, and although this place was much smaller and didn’t quite have as much going on (eg smaller gift shop etc), it was still all round a great experience and would be good for anyone wanting to experience airboat rides.
The crew was fun, the wetlands were great, and the airboat ride was awesome. My family enjoyed the entire experience. I would recommend simply to have fun in an airboat.
Very courteous and accommodating staff. Our grand-daughters will never forget being able to hold a (small) gator.
I did the early morning excursion, and no one else came, but they took me on a private trip anyway. I really enjoyed myself. Beforehand, I was able to observe a four-foot alligator right near the dock. I also purchased a keychain that had the same size foot with claws as the alligator I saw. Then, they let me hold and take pictures with an alligator that they had the jaw taped shut, and it was like holding a long baby. On the airboat, I saw lots of wildlife. There was a brown rabbit, several types of birds and a smaller alligator. I was amazed that there were beautiful lotus flowers in bloom and the driver slowed down so I could take some close up pictures. When I turned around, he handed me one and said, "You can't get any closer than that." I laughed so hard and was shocked and thrilled at the same time. We also saw a beautiful large nesting bird that was resting on some eggs, and another smaller mother bird with three little ones with her. I had an amazing airboat ride and upon my return I saw a group of about six gathering to take the next ride. I was absolutely thrilled and highly recommend them as everyone was curteous and considerate.
No guarantees to see crocs or alligators, especially in the daytime in high summer. However the experience of the boat ride and the sense of humour of the boat guys make it very enjoyable. They had a 3 year old croc in the office which we were able to have a hold of.
Fantastic experience. Getting to hold a gator and learn so much about them before going on the airboat tour was an added bonus.
Great experience run by a knowledgeable and friendly team of guys! It always been on my bucket list of things to do and it didn’t disappoint. My boys loved meeting Psycho Steve the 2 year old Gator who hangs out in the office.
Riding the airboat was an experience. But we didn’t see any gators. But thats not their fault. There was a lot of birds
Terrible experience. We did not see any wildlife except a few birds. There was no narration at all, just riding. When we got on the boat the metal seats were so hot it was burning our legs. We called the day prior to going to ask a few questions and was told that there was a baby gator we could hold and take pictures with but that was not true. The kids were very disappointed Save your money. It would be worth it to spend a little more for a better experience.
We went with our 3 year old and 1 year old and felt welcomed from the get go! Couldn’t have asked for a better experience and the guys running it were fantastic. Would recommend to anyone! Plus you get given the chance to hold a alligator.
Don't sit on the front row because the bugs from the grass fly up on you. Other than that the Experience was great.
Great experience very friendly staff. Only wish we would have seen an adult alligator. But overall great experience. 30 mins was just the right amount of time
