You won’t regret booking! Fabulous place - Had the best day, Captain Jack was so knowledgeable, friendly and really went out of his way to comment and stop where needed.
We saw 3 alligators which was truly amazing. Loved the airboat, it is just an incredible feeling being on the air boat.
The exhibits are worth the money on its own, huge gators, snakes and just a really special place - totally recommend to everyone

Fantastic tour - The airboat ride was very nice, despite the weather not in our favor we managed to see various alligators and birds. The staff is very professional and helpful. There are also raccoons in the park.

Recommendation! - We got a great 40 minute airboat tour.
Although August is not the season to see crocodiles, we have even discovered 2. A successful experience:)

Airboat Fun - We had a great airboat ride with Nick. When first arrived we checked in at the gift shop. Lots of great treasures if you’re looking for something to take home. Before our ride we walked through the wildlife area and met Shane. He was great to talk to and answered my question about very young gators. Thank you Shane it was so nice to meet you. After seeing the animals it was time for our airboat ride. Nick was very knowledgeable, the airboat ride was fun and exciting.

Make a U-turn right now. Do not recommend going. - Don’t waste your money! Make that U-turn. Been to other boat tour and this was by far the worst. We did not see any alligators at all but that’s okay. I was more upset that our tour guide, Nick, was just so boring!! Monotone and unexciting. Sounds like he was over it and just waiting to clock out. He didn’t even say or mention about not seeing any gators. He also did not help my uncle get out of the airboat. Just lame. I recommend going Coopertown Airboat Tour. That was the best!
