We live in Ft. Lauderdale and decided to try the Billie Swamp Safari for a day trip with my two kids ages 3 and 6. We had an enjoyable day but the part that is bothering me is I hoped for an Everglades experience but ended up with a zoo trip. We took the Swamp Buggy and the kids loved... more

Spent the day here recently during our stay at South Beach. It was further than we thought and took about 1.5 hrs. The place is well thought out and the tour guides all very knowledgeable. First we went on an airboat ride for about 25 mins. Loads of crocodiles or aligators to see, but the high point was when we... more

We stopped at Billie Swamp Safari on a drive across Florida from Fort Meyers to Fort Lauderdale. It seemed like a good idea to make an effort to stop rather than driving out specifically for the attraction. It is pretty far out of the way, once you get off the highway you have to drive about 30 minutes through complete... more

It was a frightening entry to this tourist attraction. We really thought we had been hoodwinked. The Billie Swamp Safari is truly in the middle of nowhere. Fortunately, our fears were unfounded. We arrived early in the day, 10am, and the parking lot was seemingly empty, which we misinterpreted as another bad sign. The crowds arrived closer to noon. We... more

My fist weekend there I took in all of the ammenities which were great fun and educational too. Later... more

Perhaps I should go on excursions with a skeptical attitude more often. I wasn't expecting much but had a very good time. My wife and I purchased the combo package (airboat ride, swamp buggy, and snake/alligator show) for $72.00 total. All three events proved to be fun and educational. The facility, while not elaborate or fancy was clean and well... more
