We had family visiting from NJ and we usually contact Seth with Switchgrass Airboat whom we love, but, he was out of town for the month. We were encouraged by his office to reach out to Mike at A St. John's Airboat Tours. We were SO pleased that we did! Mike's wife was so very pleasant and set up our appointment! We arrived at the boat dock and Captain Mike arrived shortly after with his very cool Airboat! He was so friendly and personable!! We headed off on a great adventure! My NJ guests, who had NO IDEA we were going on an airboat, were THRILLED with the excitement of the ride and Mike's knowledge of the plants, geography and wildlife in this area. He grew up on these acres of marshes and we enjoyed hearing his childhood adventures with his grandfather and dad! We saw amazing wildlife and got a true understanding of how different things were around that area a couple hundred years prior. We visited an old indian mound where we found pieces of pottery from when they inhabited that area. He picked wild guava for us to taste. Although this was my 4th or 5th airboat tour, this was my first with Captain Mike. I'm amazed at how much I learned and enjoyed this trip. We were met at the dock by his lovely wife who took photos of us coming back in. She is such an asset to their business! I felt like I knew her forever! If you're ever in the area, I would highly recommend you take some time to enjoy an airboat tour with Mike or Seth at Switchgrass Airboat tours.

Gators is what the old girl came for and gators is what she got.
18 gators over 3m made it really memorable for sure
The captain was great fun and very entertaining.
Real fun ride

My family and I just got back from Titusville, FL. One thing we wanted to do while there was experience an airboat ride. There are several options in the area, but we chose St Johns River Airboat. I am so glad we did! If you want an authentic ride with a local guide, rather than a touristy operation, this is the one to choose. Captain Mike was really knowledgeable about the plants and animals, and we learned a lot. He took time to find alligators for us to see, showed us a variety of birds, an eagle and nest, Native American swamp mounds, etc. The ride was a mix of exhilarating speed and leisurely drifting around the bald cypress trees. He was even kind enough to take a family photo for us. Ear protection is provided, and the boat is nice and well maintained. His wife was a gem! After our ride was previously cancelled due to Hurricane Nicole, she worked things out to help us get a ride before we had to leave Florida. It was very easy to correspond with her, reserve our spot, get updates, etc. through texting. Thanks for the great memory! (I'll leave some photos as soon as I get the chance) :)

Captain. Mike is a national treasure. His knowledge and expertise make this air boat experience an excursion that you’ll cherish in your memory. The beauty of the St. John River basin is extraordinary and not to be missed. Captain Mike is a genuine man and a pleasure to have met!

This was an extraordinary trip! We did the sunset tour and saw more alligators than we could count (stopped counting at 100!), heron, ibis, two bald eagles, cows, turkey vultures as we powered through the St John River with Captain Mike on his fabulous airboat.

Must do!! You will love it! We have been vacationing in Florida for over 30 years and have always wanted to go on an airboat ride. We previously went on a large group airboat ride in the Everglades, but it was not even close to as much fun as Capt. Mikes airboat ride. He is very knowledgeable about the area and a very experienced Airboat Captain. This is probably one of the best experiences of my life - highly recommend!!

Captain Mike gave us the best tour of the St. John River! We saw plenty of wildlife, including a flock of pick roseate spoonbill birds, and lots of gators!! It was amazing and riding the airboat was like flying. We especially loved the cypress swamp! Great value, amazing tour. Thanks!

The trip was incredible! WOW! Denny that took our reservations was extremely friendly, kind, easy to work with and had great customer service! Mike the boat captain was outstanding! Mike was friendly, very knowledgeable, a great driver, and provided a spectacular tour. The boat was clean and comfortable. We saw tons of animals and over a hundred gators🐊 of all sizes. Truly the BEST part of our trip to Florida! I highly recommend this adventure and especially this company!! Such a AWESOME morning!!!

Mike was great , very professional yet very personable. Took my wife and I back/out on a private early morning ride, you'd be surprised at the area after driving by on hard ground. Saw the gators, eagles, Indian mounds, and some other sections of the St. Johns waterway. I highly recommend Mike and this tour/ride.

What an amazing experience! From numerous gators to unbelievable birds and wildlife, this tour was fabulous! Would definitely recommend if visiting in this area. Captain Mike is a wealth of information as he is a true local who lives this land and all the creatures in and on it. His kindness and wit made for a true memorable experience. Would definitely go again when visiting in the area. A do not miss experience!
