    This is the one.

    What a wonderful experience for the entire family. Bring the children, they'll love it too. The only tour with two-way headsets, so you can communicate with the captain and each other. The pilot was very informative and genuinely loves what he does for a living....More

    Great Job

    For my group this was a great experience. The tours in this area are through salt water mangrove forests, which means rare (fresh water) crocs., not many other land creatures, and lots of gnarly and unique trees. However we did see a large croc. patiently...More

    Only 47 minutes NOT the hour I paid for

    Boats were clean and well maintained. Headphones were really nice to hear captain narrate the trip. We saw several birds, an alligator and raccoon. However for the price we paid I felt pretty put out that we had our feet back on the dock in...More

    I must say, I was looking forward to this boat ride but I was disappointed. The one hour ride could have been shortened to 30 min. Riding through the mangroves was fun, but I thought we would be riding through other areas to get more...More
