Customer Reviews
It was really obvious how much our tour guide loved what he was doing. He had an amazing quality for calling the alligators closer to the boat so we could have a good look. He also was loaded with information and was very knowledgeable and a resident.

-Marla Wood-Nelson, Canyon, TX
The busdriver was charming, informative and a very competent driver. The boat captain was also excellent (except that he call venomous snakes poisonous. He clearly knew his subject, however, and was most engaging. We all enjoyed the baby alligator. Your restrooms are pretty awful, though.

-Thomas Armstrong, Pasadena, MD
We have been on simular tours in Florida but it was worth the trip.
