Every boat was the "best"! - We had a large group book this trip (42 of us). The company easily fit us onto three of their large boats (14 on each). Throughout the entire tour, I was convinced our boat was having the "best" tour. When we all got back from seeing multiple alligators, learning about the history of the swamp and river system, and getting to hold a baby alligator, I was thoroughly impressed that all three boats felt they had the "best" experience. Each boat got to see alligators up close and hold a baby alligator as well. Each tour guide was phenomenal and got everyone excited. Even though we were in New Orleans for a national youth conference, many in our group said that the highlight of our entire trip was THIS swamp boat tour.

Loved the airboat! - Dewey was a great guide for the airboat swamp tour! The airboat is amazing fun and cools you off in the heat of summer. We saw at least 10 gators—one over 12 feet long and a tiny baby. Plus lots of birds and a raccoon. Definitely recommend!

Worth it! - Absolutely worth it! With our guide Kenny we had a lot of fun and he told us a lot of information about the wildlife in the swamps, especially of course about the aligators. We were traveling 1.5 hours, through the narrow waterways even at a leisurely pace, to see as many animals as possible.

A Great Experience! - Had an awesome time out on the airboat! Friendly staff from start to finish. Saw lots of gators and Rocket the Raccoon. Ear protection is offered and highly suggested. Highly recommend spending the time and money for this.
