    They squeezed us in at the last minute!

    It was in the middle of the day and too hot for Alligators, but Duke tried! It was super fun and interesting to see hundreds of cows in the marshes!

    Captain Duke tours are an hour or longer. He is very knowledgeable and personable. We had a terrific time and I will recommend him to my visitors in the future.
