Our group of two kids, 6 and 10 and four adults enjoyed our visit to the swamp. The viewing of the alligators was limited due to the cold weather but we saw many other things of interest including snakes, wild pigs, birds, frogs and housing along the route. Guide was very informative. The kids got to pet a young alligator kept in the store tank. We had transportation from out hotel and the guide, Josephine, was great, friendly and very informative. Only downfall was the return to our hotel. It said return 12:45. We did not realize we would be almost last for drop off and we had to rush to board the cruise ship.
