We got the ultimate package which included 30-minute airboat trip, lunch and gem mining. Everything was great! We watched a show and took an archery lesson. Highly recommended!

My husband and I visited Boggy Creek in 2008 before having kids. That seems like a lifetime ago! We were back in Orlando this year and decided to bring our kids for the experience on March 29th. I purchased the tickets online for the 30 min airboat ride for our party of 7 prior to arriving. Upon check in we were told it would be about an hour and a half before our tour. This sounds like a long time, but we quickly filled it with all the things they offer! The kids fed the alligators and then we moved on to the gem mining. My 11 and 8 year olds loved this. They had a great time sifting for their treasures! The adults in our group were able to grab some adult beverages while we waited, which helped pass some time. Tanner was the driver of our boat and he did a wonderful job. He pointed out a bald eagle and a small alligator right away. This is not easy, as it was the middle of a hot sunny afternoon. He then found a six foot gator, and ended our tour by pulling right up next to a 12 footer! He was really able to make the most of that 30 minutes! Overall great experience! We will be back!
