This was an airboat ride. If you expect to see alligators you’ll be dissatisfied. The boat went out to a specific spot where they knew one small alligator was then headed right back to start point.

Please accept our sincerest apologies for any inconvenience or dissatisfaction you may have experienced. Unfortunately, we give customers the experience of seeing true Florida wildlife and are unable to guarantee any specific type of animal (since they are wild). We apologize if this was not made more clear to you initially and thank you for bringing it to our attention so that we can work to improve this aspect of our service. For passengers hoping to see specific wildlife we recommend calling ahead to find out what time of day they are most prominent. If you were looking for an alligator specifically we do guarantee them, but only on our night tour. We apologize for your dissatisfaction and hope you give us another opportunity to provide the experience you were looking for in the future. Thank you.

We got exactly what we paid for... a 30-minute airboat experience. We did get to see some birds and gators. Our guide was nice, made a few jokes, but didn't give us too much information about wildlife or the area. We also have our 2.5-year-old, so a 30-minute boat ride was probably about all he could handle. There wasn't too much to do while waiting for our boat road (which started late), but we did mine for gems. If you are looking for an *experience* and really want to LEARN something, I would suggest looking elsewhere, or doing more than 30 minutes.

We have been in business for over 27 years and our captains are highly trained to educate their passengers about the area flora, fauna and wildlife. If your captain did not meet our criteria we need to find out which captain you had so that we can work on retraining him. Please email us more information about your tour such as the tour date, time and the captain’s name. If you cannot remember your captain’s name we would appreciate it if you can give us a description of his estimated age, hair color, body build, and if he had facial hair or not. We would also like to know if you complained to the front desk after your tour. (We want to be sure our staff handled your complaint appropriately.) Any information you can provide us will be very helpful so that we can investigate this further. We do not have commentary in the ear muffs because we prefer giving our customers one on one time and our captains stop the boat and turn it off along the way to get a more up close and personal experience. We prefer that to trying to speak through the hearing protection while the boat is running. We hope to hear from you soon so that this can be resolved to your satisfaction. Please don’t hesitate to let us know if you have any questions at all. We appreciate all comments and suggestions from our customers so that we may increase our performance and always provide excellent service to our customers.
