Air Boat Ride, Fun and Food a MUST DO EXPERIENCE for all!! - Great adventure! A must do for all. Our bus driver, Tony, was the best. Our 1hr drive from Naples flew by with all of Tony's information about Florida and alligators. Wooton's air boat ride was very fun and beautiful. We saw several gators and a bald eagle flying around. The we stopped a local place, City Seafood,to eat on the water that was very nice with a great view too. All in all great day!!!!!!!

Knowledgeable tour guide - We had a great time with Mike, who we dubbed Uncle Mike! He was fantastic. He was informative and friendly. He even provided cold water for us after our air boat tour. He made us feel comfortable and was genuine.

An awesome bucket list adventure - What an awesome experience!! Our Tour guide, Kenny, was outstanding! He was very knowledgeable and friendly. We enjoyed hearing about the area during the ride to the Everglades airboat launch. Carl, our captain on the boat was also awesome. The ride was thrilling! We would definitely do this excursion again.

Great experience in the Everglades - Mike our tour guide gave us the extra that made the tour even better! We went to Ochopee post office and a local by the water restaurant for lunch in Everglades City. He shared his bug spray which is very very helpful!

Fab Experience - The whole experience was unforgettable. Mike the tour guide was really knowledgeable and friendly. The airboat ride was great fun as we hoped for and the Alligator sanctuary was well worth a visit.

Probably better in the Winter Months - Our tour guide Kenny was wonderful, and we absolutely loved the actual airboat tour ride with our captain Tommy. However, the overall experience was not worth it. If given the choice again, I would have found my own transport to an airboat tour for 1/3 or 1/2 the price and just done that. 75% of the tour is spent riding on a bus. The bus was overfilled with too many people for comfort, and on a hot day, the bus AC could not keep up. We were the second group to arrive; however, we were the second to last to be let onto the bus, and the seat choices were extremely uncomfortable for such a long trip. The animal sanctuary was actually depressing, and I regretted every minute of it. It took five minutes to walk through and see "everything" (gators, otters, and a lion), and despite applying bug spray head-to-toe, the mosquitos were the worst I've ever seen in my life (I with 30+ bug bites). The alligator "show" was an actual joke. It was like Joe Dirt in real life, and it lasted a total of two minutes. I at least expected to see someone feed or care for any of the animals at any point. The airboat tour was a lot of fun, but we had to wait a while for our tour group's turn because it was through a separate business. The actual ride was only 30-40 minutes long maybe an hour if I'm being generous. Afterward, our tour guide took us to a lunch spot, which was delicious and worth the stop. I really appreciated it and was in favor of it; however, this added additional time and expense to an already long trip. Then we took a two-minute drive through the town, but at that point, I was so uncomfortable from the heat of the crammed bus and the bug bites that I just wanted to go home but we had about an hours drive to go back to the tour office.
