    This was exciting! Our Captain was knowledgeable, funny, and really was all around awesome. His wife was on the boat also and was also awesome. And boy he can do a gator call He had the gators coming up to the boat ! Definitely well worth the money and would love to go again.

    Captain Rob made the trip so fun. We saw tons of gators and everyone in our group had a blast. We can’t wait to go again!

    We have visited this place a few times. My family and I decided to take the night tour for once. Saw 7 gators !! What a experience !!

    The trip looking round the Everglades at night was an experience not to be missed. captain John provided a great commentary about the Everglades. We saw a huge number of alligators very close up. The airboat was amazing, comfortable and they provided ear plugs for the noise. I would highly recommend this to anyone visiting Florida.

    This airboat tour at night was incredible for our family and friends! Everyone had a blast, young and old! I 100% recommend this tour! Also, Captain Mike was the most incredible guide! Very knowledgeable and kept it very interesting! Thank you so much for an awesome experience!

    This was an exciting and worthwhile tour. Our captain, Nick, was knowledgeable with eagle eyes that afforded us many opportunities to see new born alligators, “teenagers”, and adult alligators. We even saw other native wildlife on this tour. We didn’t expect to see so many alligators but were pleased with this tour. You will not be disappointed If you’re looking for an excellent alligator tour! This was money well spent and we plan to take this tour again in the future.

    Amazing experience! Did a sunset tour with Bryan who was an awesome guide for our family (11 people, several kids). I have spoken to other tour companies and some even said sunset tours were not worth it at this time... boy were they wrong. The company was super professional and everything was as agreed. Definitely recommend!

    Yesterday morning I took my visiting family on an Everglades tour, but we left feeling disillusioned. We didn’t see gators and the airboat ride was slow and monotonous. A slow boat ride may be perfect for some people, but it’s not what I am used to and enjoy (I’m a local resident and come out frequently to ride, not to see wildlife, but for the speed rush). My family was disappointed, so I booked a night ride — something I’ve always wanted to do but never got around too. I think the Captain that you end up with makes the ride. I’ve always had good luck on the day trips with Captain Mike (he’s awesome), but last night we had Captain Brian and it was the most memorable experience I’ve ever had on an airboat. We saw a lot of gators, and the Everglades exudes a completely different feeling at night. It’s clear that Captain Brian has a lot of experience, and like Captain Mike, he knows how to handle an airboat. He was extremely knowledgeable about the Everglades and its habitants, and despite being in a hostile environment in the darkness of night, I never felt I was unsafe. Lastly, he always maneuvered the boat around the alligators when possible so passengers on both sides could see it. I will definitely be going back to Sawgrass Recreation Park and, knowing that the Captain defines the experience, I will be sure to request Captain Brian or Captain Mike. Thanks for making last night’s experience the highlight of my family’s trip to Florida, Captain Brian!

    We saw a lot of gators, and got really close to some! Good boat ride, and the glades are awesome at night.

    The airboat ride was incredible! Do the night tour!! It’s less hot and it will be exciting for younger children and teens. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable. 10/10 recommend
