Traveler reviews
Not the best but worth the money
Pros: Affordable airboat tour of Everglades. Easy to find as it is right at the guest office of the Sawgrass Recreational Center. Friendly and accommodating staff. Cons: we have not seen any alligators 🐊 in the wild although our captain tried to spot some. Kids were excited to pet the baby alligators that were supposed to be in the zoo, but the closest show was more than 1.5 hours away so we did not wait. Overall it was a nice speedy ride on the airboat and a little zoological center that’s available afterwards. It was worth the $39/person we spent (as opposed to $125/person private boats charge), but I probably would not want to see it again.
Scam
We got a text with the wrong address where to meet …there was no one to contact about meeting up in the email it is very confusing and no refunds or responses this is a scam
Above all else, get ear...
Above all else, get ear muffs or ear plugs. The airboats are extremely loud. Beware smells you will be in the wild, animals smell.
Fun experience!
Our guide was very knowledgeable and best part, we got to see a gator, blue herons and a few other birds. Teenagers enjoyed the animal encounters - we got to hold a baby gator, touch a ball python and a turtle. Kat, the animal care taker was very patient and answered a lot of questions.
Viator accepted our booking on Christmas Day & the activity was closed
Viator accepted our booking on Christmas Day when the Everglades airboat tour & wildlife show was closed. We went all the way there. Unfortunate Viator representative kept mentioning that the tour is on but after waiting for a long time when we called the Everglades phone, we were told they are closed for Christmas & they had mentioned all their vendors about this a long ago. Viator should never have accepted our booking in the first place. This was a bad experience & we are waiting for our refund.
