MUST have experience, 10/10

Our entire experience with Wild Florida was fantastic start to finish. The price was extremely reasonable for an hour long boat tour, lunch, admission to the park. gator feed & a picture with a gator, & we got discounted rates for the drive thru safari. My girlfriend also did the capybara experience and she had such an amazing time feeding and petting the animals. All of the staff were knowledge and kind. Captain Mike was fantastic. They made sure to pick a balloon out of the water during our tour (yay for conservation!) and answered any of our questions about local wildlife. Highly recommend the experience to all my family and friends.

Family Friendly & Super Fun Memorable Experience

We had the best time on this airboat tour! We booked the 30 minute and definitely wish we had booked the hour. We saw gators right at the start and so many birds. It’s such a beautiful area and so fun to zoom around on the airboat. Jeff was also our captain and was an amazing tour guide! We learned a lot and he was really great at making sure we all had what we needed and took the time to explain things and do photos at the end. Thanks so much Jeff!
