We took our 3 grandkids to Orlando for the theme parks in late September. On our off day we went to Boggy Creek. It was a perfect time for us and the kids. They are 12 and under. The whole place was worth going to. The staff were friendly, honestly friendly. We were made to feel welcome the minute we arrived. Nobody "doted" on the tourist. Instead everyone there seemed to care about everyone else, tourists included. There is a family vibe there and everyone working there made us know we were welcome. Our Captain, Logan, impressed me right away. He immediately took the safety of my grandkids into his introduction. He treated them as his own. That allowed me to just relax. The tour itself was beyond great. We had the wind in our hair and the sun on our face. Logan took the boat up to speed and did a little side to side motion. We loved lt. He also slowed down and pointed out the area. He showed us how nature on the lake worked. We saw gator beds and snapping turtles. He also pointed out the sheer number of birds that live there. He had answers for all of our questions. I am not a nature buff, but Logan made me one. Logan was great. The BBQ lunch was good. The service was great. If you have small kids in tow take them mining. My guys were so excited to compare what they found with what was on the checklist provided. We plan to get a cheap rock polisher and make some nice momentous from the hoard. To sum it all up? Everyone working there did their best to make it a great day for us.

We weren't sure what to expect however we booked based on great reviews. We loved it! Everything was wonderful! The airboat was of course the highlight. It was our first and was so much fun. Definitely wear the provided hearing protection as it is very loud. The lunch afterwards was yummy. Highly recommend the brisket plate and sweet tea.
