The Florida Everglades is home to many different types of birds, amphibians, reptiles, fish, and lush tropical vegetation. The most popular animal in the Everglades by far is the American alligator, and you should see several of them in their natural habitat. Of course, all animals in the Everglades are wild animals that are in their natural habitat, so it’s entirely up to them if they want to come out and show themselves

1 to 25, but it depends on how many adults and children you have in your party. Our custom-built state-of-the-art airboats are designed to hold up to 25 passengers safely.

Yes, of course! All of our expert tour guides are state-licensed airboat captains who are very well experienced and are trained not to take any unnecessary risks while out on your private airboat ride. As with anything we do, safety absolutely comes first!

We fill our private airboat tours with 1-hour of pure excitement and thrills—that’s longer than any other airboat ride in the area. Plan for a full hour out on the water to explore the wetlands and see the amazing sights. There is only one environment in the country like this!

Our in-demand alligator show, courtesy of The Gator Boy Alligator Rescue, lasts anywhere between 15-25 minutes. You’ll experience tricks, demonstrations, stunts, and more—plus, you’ll learn a ton of interesting facts about the alligators in the Everglades. We provide the ultimate Everglades combo of adventure and education.

We’ll do you one better than that—you can actually hold a baby alligator (and get a picture as proof!) Once the alligator presentation is over, you and your party can pose for a picture with a baby alligator and take home the photo as a keepsake. Of course, this process is totally safe (the alligator’s mouth will be taped shut for protection)—but that doesn’t mean you won’t feel the power and strength of the alligator in your hands.

Airboat rides are a perfectly safe and fun way to tour the Everglades—especially because at the park, we pride ourselves on safety as our top priority. That, and creating a family-fun day of excitement for people of all ages. We proudly employ experienced boat captains who are the most highly skilled navigators—and in fact, have been exploring the Everglades for a huge portion of their lives. What about our airboats? Well, that’s another point of pride—we have the most impressive fleet in the Everglades, each one more equipped and state-of-the-art than the last. At our park, cruising the Everglades is a safe activity for everyone!

Actually, it’s pretty much the opposite. Our alligators are rescued and cared for by The Gator Boys Alligator Rescue team. They feed them, care for them, and create a beautiful, natural environment to live in. Every one of our Gator shows is animal-friendly. Truly, many of them are total hams for the audience—something tells us they just really like the spotlight and prefer to be the main event.

Our morning airboat tours begin at 9:00 a.m. You don’t need to get up too early in the morning to see some amazing wildlife!

We make booking easy by calling us at 954-434-8111, and we will be happy to answer any questions you may have! We review refund requests on a case-by-case basis in cases of extreme emergencies.

No, we prefer gliding on water, and we know you’ll love it. Our airboat rides are more of a thrill ride than a swamp buggy tour. We also rent fishing boats if you don’t want the fun to end!

Check out our ‘What to Bring’ section to dress for the weather and season. Most importantly, wear comfortable and practical clothing, sunscreen, sunglasses, and bug spray! We want your personal experience to be amazing!

Group airboat tours allow you to join an open tour without advanced notice. You and your party will join others on a fun, non-private tour. Private boats allow you to tailor your experience to your speed and focus with your guide and have the ride all to yourselves, plus additional perks! Semi-private tours allow you to have a more private, tailored experience than a larger group without the cost. Are there any discounts or special packages for larger groups or families?Yes, we offer group and event discounts. Plus, if you need two airboat tours going together we can work to accommodate them. Give us a call (954-434-8111) to learn more!

Just before you head to the airboats, check out the restrooms between the Gator Bites Cafe and the gift shop.

We are happy to discuss how to accommodate you best if you call us. We want to make your day amazing!

Please do! We always encourage parents to bring their little ones aboard the boats to experience the park and enjoy the wildlife. The best part? Children under three years old are always free. As an added bonus, your baby will be safe from the sun’s rays—our airboats are covered to protect from the hot Florida sun. If your baby is sensitive to louder sounds, no problem! We sell earplugs in the General Store, which will protect them from the noise of the airboat engines.
