It was a reasonable price. Very professional and friendly. We saw many alligators and a lot of wildlife. The lake is beautiful. Would certainly recommend it to others.

Wonderful experience with a very knowledgeable guide. Had the extra pleasure of stopping at the worlds smallest post office on the way to the airboat ride. After the ride, we visited the sanctuary that had a lot of crocodiles along with a small show and tell. We were even allowed to hold a crocodile (there were 3 baby sizes, ours was the largest choice, as seen in the picture). We also stopped on the way back to enjoy some local cuisine at the City Seafood restaurant.

It was all alot of fun. The tour guide was great, giving us so much info, the airboat was fun, but seeing the alligators was exciting and terrifying at the same time.
