Wonderful way to spend a Tuesday

The captain and his wife were great and helpful. We had a wonderful time flying over the water. He stopped to show us the different types of coral they have. We saw lots of birds and a small shark. I highly recommend this.

Excellent time!

Tour was excellent. The airboat ride was a blast and the nature views were even better. We saw alligators, turtles, dolphins and manatees. Our captain made it fun with crazy turns and engaging the dolphins in our wake wa they raced along side of us! The counter staff was great, very kind and accommodating and friendly. Our captain took the time to teach us about the area and made sure everyone on the boat was safe, he made the day special

We saw so many dolphins, a sea cave, pelicans, wild hogs, ospreys, manatees, Monkey Island, and to many birds to mention. I HIGHLY recommend this company and can’t wait to return!!!! Thank you Tommy for making our adventure extra special!!!!

Fun airboat ride

Was not a good time of year to take this excursion but Tommy (owner operator) made the best of it. Tommy was friendly and extremely knowledgeable after being in the business for 60+ years. We saw monkey island which was cool but just a quick drive by - probably could have sat a little longer seeing the monkeys because after that we saw nothing. The boat ride was fun but cold - unfortunately weather was working against us. Enjoyed our trip but probably would go when it is warmer in hopes of seeing more.

Stunning Old Florida

Amazing to see a slice of old Florida in all its glory. Our operator Tommy was a gentleman and great tour guide as he pointed out so many spectaculars scenes and wildlife. Things you just don’t think about or know. Recommended for alllll ages you will 100% see something to spark the wonder and adventure inside. We saw Dolphins slowly maneuvering through the water and got some great shots of them through the crystal clear water, sea turtles doing turtle things and soooo much more.
