The two hour private tour of this unique area is well worth the money. The launch point is easily accessible from almost anywhere in south Florida and our tour guide really made the experience enriching. Saw plenty of gators and birds.

We took an airboat ride on Sunday, March 7th and even booked the same day. It was beautiful weather and we were very excited to see alligators which our boat captain made sure we did. We saw alligators and snakes and a ton of birds. Our captain made our kiddos feel safe but also gave them a fun ride. We highly recommend!

I have used Florida Airboat Rides 3 times in the past 2 years with different groups and many of those folks have used other tour companies in the past. Every person stated that Florida Airboat was the best. The Captains have been the most knowledgeable of the trails through the "Sea of Grass", the history of the Glades and the story behind it all. They knew where to find the wildlife including birds, turtles, BIG alligators and nesting areas of baby alligators (mother always nearby) with the ability of identifying what we were seeing along with the tendencies of each. And they all could do that while bringing humor to the subjects as well. I can't praise these folks enough and will be back again and again as friends and relatives look for a unique experience. As one of those movie critics always said "Two Thumbs Up".

Excellent service. Jimbo and Stewart do a phenomenal job of giving you a tailored and unique experience in the swamp and are very accommodating. Would highly recommend this trip to anyone who wants adventure and superior service.

Local here and in the marine industry. You won’t find nicer boats, well equipped with all safety equipment.
We booked a 1 hour trip and Captain Andrew showed us a great time. We had a 1 year old and a 2.5 year old and were able to see plenty of gators as well as some awesome camps and an airplane crash site.
We always felt safe and when they weren’t sleeping, the kids enjoyed the wildlife and the boat ride. We did a group tour several years ago that was much less memorable than the private tour... it was well worth it!

On March 1st my wife, our adult son and I took a 90 minute Florida Airboat tour with Capt Stuart. It was fantastic and we highly recommend it. The Capt pointed out a number of alligators and a variety of birds. He gave us a brief history of the everglades and the wildlife that inhabit the area. We passed a number of privately owned houses that are deep in the everglades and he showed us the wreck of a small plane that had crashed in the everglades years ago. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour and thank Capt. Stuart for making it a wonderful experience. Walter, Carol, James

I should have done this YEARS ago! It was a blast! The airboats are fascinating and it was so awesome to see the beautiful Florida wetlands. The captain was very informative and entertaining. We saw wildlife of all kinds including dozens of baby and adult Florida alligators! The day was absolutely beautiful too! Airboats are noisy but ear protection was mandatory and provided making this a very serene and peaceful experience. I highly recommend this! I could feel the stress just drifting away as we sailed effortlessly over the beautiful lake of grass!

Although we had the coldest day of the year, our guide made it very enjoyable. His knowledge of the area combined with a nice clean airboat made the experience unique. Navigating the Everglades in a private airboat is a unique experience and we highly recommend it.

Captain Rob was great! Learned about the Everglades and the boat ride was a lot of fun! It was our kids first time on an air boat and they want to go again!! The google map link for directions on the email/website led us to a development around the corner… so would recommend to anyone else going to type in the address manually. We would definitely go again though! Thanks again for a great experience!

Loved the natural beauty of the area. The variety of abundant birds was breathtaking. The naturalist in our tour guide was evident with his knowledge of the vegetation and habitat of the alligators. We saw many gators of all sizes. The tour was the perfect length to really get to appreciate the area. Thank you for the.memory.
