Traveler reviews
great guide, great ride
it was so cool to experience the swamp and see the wildlife in it. Our guide Jason was clearly very knowledgeable and felt VERY comfortable navigating the environment. He was an ace at parallel parking the boat, and also knew the place like the back of his hand. He was telling us about the local alligators like they were truly his neighbors, he could identify them by small markings I could barely catch, and he noted to us their usual habits and territories and interactions. Not only was he a great resource on the gators, he also was pointed out bird nests and calls to us and did his best to help us find them as well. I thought it was a good length of time as well. and while they talked about how they used to do this, they NO LONGER feed the gators marshmallows, which is good!! (though he had very funny stories about it.)
Enjoyable tour and a...
Enjoyable tour and a knowledgeable guide of the area’s wildlife. Saw many alligators and more. Beneficial to show up at least 5-10 minutes before tour time.

Great tour! Capt. Brent was friendly and knowledgeable. He indulged us by stopping and backing up when we thought we saw something even when he knew nothing was there. Beautiful sights and we saw many gators!
