Safety first? The experience was comprehensive. There is a place to get a sandwich, some alligators to see and many activities for the kids. The boat captain was friendly and the equipment was in really good shape. So why dangerous? We went out in the pm when storms were in the area, and we got significantly rained on halfway through (the half an hour ride). No problem, the captain blasted back across the lake and we were fine. However, an hour later a weather emergency was announced with 40 mph winds. If we were stuck in that?.,,,,
Bottom line, it was a fun trip but check the weather before you leave the dock. Safety first.
