We took an air boat tour with "Captain Ken" and learned so much about the Florida Everglades. we had to split our large group into 2 tours and everyone was thrilled! But I must admit after our tours when we compared notes, we had the superior tour with "Ken" He knew so much about the area he grew up in and shared details about the history of the geography, drug busts, and animal life. We saw 4 alligators up close and one 14 footer plop into the water next to us from his perch on the land. Four pelicans rode with us for a while and Captain Ken told us how to determine their ages. We learned about the plentiful crab in the region from a trap filled with them that our guide pulled from the water. He also ended the tour with recommended nearby hikes and everything he promised from baby alligators to a bald eagle were there for us to enjoy. Definitely go with Captain Doug's- and ask for Captain Ken. I never learned and experienced so much in a single hour!

We decided on captain doug's airboat ride after a lot of searching
on the internet and we were not disappointed. Our boat captain was great fun and we got up close and personal with a couple of alligators. We all agreed it was a brilliant experience and great value.
