The whole trip start to finish was amazing! Ira was our driver he showed up early got us there quick and safe guided us to each activity and even collected our free photo for us! We had Captain Anna for our airboat ride she was the best and taught us so much on our adventure! The show afterwards was awesome even in the heat it was still fun! The whole experience is highly recommended!
Bruce was great!!! The boat ride and show was great. Got to take a picture with a baby alligator and snake.
This was a perfect experience for my family with 2 boys ages 8 & 9! In addition to the boat and exploring they loved the show, interactions and gift shop! Highly recommend!
We booked a VIP tour and the transportation was terrible. Driver was rude, nasty, not nice, yelling at us. It took him 90 minutes each way to get to/from park, with only 2 stops that were close to our hotel. Didn't appear he knew where he was going. When we arrived at the park, he was pushy and yelling at us sayng we wouldn't have time for the VIP tour. We did get a tour of some kind and it was great. Although the tour was awesome, I would suggest you rent a car to get there. Driver called and yelled at me right before pick up. I called and complained before getting in the van, during ride to the park and from the park. Noone ever bother to returned my calls. Not a way to run a business!!
Great trip. A fun day out in nature. Saw lots of wildlife and were well entertained ny captain Zak (nicknamed him Blippy)
Good conservation education, the gator “show” was a great opportunity to educate others about the alligators. Wish we could have heard the airboat pilot…. Half of what was said was drowned out by the idling boat.
We were in Ft. Lauderdale without a car and not staying near attractions or the beach. The VIP tour with transportation worked out perfectly for us. They will pick you up from any Ft. Lauderdale hotel. Pick ups are between 8:30 to 9:15. We were last to be picked up and first drop off. The driver gave us a nice talk on the way and guided us through every step of getting on the airboat and alligator show. Ear plugs (not necessary), bottle of water, and a group photo were included. We didn't have to think or warry about anything. I would take the VIP tour again. It got us there early before it started getting crowded. Our boat was also not full so we could sit on a side to see the alligators. I was surprised at how docile the alligators were in the show. They didn't react at all to the man in their area.
We had a great time. We were in town for a conference and this was a nice experience. It was great. We were picked up and dropped off at our hotel.the air boat ride and show were alot of fun and educational. My only down fall is everyone wants a tip on top of the ticket price. I'd prefer to pay a higher ticket price to not feel pressured to tip everyone.
Really fun and interesting. Captain Anna was informative and entertaining. We saw quite a few alligators.
We had a VIP package that included an airboat ride, a show and access to gift shop. We saw several alligators up close, turtles, lizards and interesting birds. We had a fabulous driver (Bruce) who picked us up from our port after our cruise and dropped us off at our hotel. The van was great, and had plenty of room for our luggage. Bruce made the experience great with local history, animal trivia, local tips and more. Definitely recommend the experience for those curious about the Everglades.
