Awesome experience. I’ve went on one other airboat ride when I was much younger, and was terrified on that one because I vaguely remember water coming into the boat. The boats at Sawgrass made me feel completely safe, and the captain was awesome and funny. We saw roughly 10 gators. The ride at night had such nice weather, the sky was beautiful, and the mosquitoes were nowhere near as bad as I thought. If I had to choose between the daytime or nighttime experience, I’d definitely choose nighttime again 100% to beat the Florida sun.

10/10
The Sawgrass nighttime airboat tour was by far the best experience we had while visiting south Florida. Captain Adam was the best! He spotted several gators and even an alligator nest. Which momma tried to lead us away from. Capt Adam was very knowledgeable and answered many questions. He was also funny and very personable. Definitely a 10/10 trip and would 100% recommend to everyone in the area!!

Highly recommended
It was an amazing experience!
We saw at least 5 alligators and learnt a lot about their environment.
Definetely 10/10.
We were not bitten by mosquitos. It made our experience even more pleasant since the mosquitos are crazy there.

Amazing Experience
We booked the night tour at Sawgrass for the 5 of us (2x adults and 3x children) and had an amazing time, we were taken out in a large airboat onto the water and saw birds of prey, aligators including babies and frogs. It was a great experience that I would definately reccomend and hope to do again.

Great Experience
Our visit to Sawgrass Recreation Park was nothing short of fantastic! From start to finish, the experience was well organized, exciting, and memorable.
The highlight of the trip was definitely the night airboat tour. Our captain was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing interesting facts about the Everglades while keeping things fun and engaging. He made a point to interact with guests throughout the ride, which really added a personal touch to the experience. Most importantly, we felt completely safe and well taken care of the entire time.
And the wildlife did not disappoint—the gators were active and “cooperating,” making for some thrilling and up-close moments you won’t forget. Seeing them in their natural habitat at night added a whole new level of excitement.
If you’re in the area, this tour is an absolute must. It’s the perfect mix of adventure, education, and unforgettable Florida scenery!

How did he spot that gator???
This was a fun ride at night and we couldn’t believe how Captain Disco spotted gators in the dark from hundreds of yards away with his spotlight. He was full of great gator facts. Would definitely suggest this tour with Captain Disco!
