Cameron the shuttle bus driver was great and Mike our boat Captain was awesome. He was very knowledgeable and took us to see quite a few alligators especially Jack!

Definitely would recommend this tour. Had a 10/10 experience with our tour guide Josh. He was interactive, funny and showed us all the spots and stories about the alligators. It’s a must see while you visit!

Very cold and windy. It would have been nice if they contacted us to warn that no alligators will be out once temp goes down. We didn’t see any animals at all except birds. They could have offered to switch to different day or refund

Fun, informative airboat ride/swamp tour. Even though it was too chilly to see a lot of alligators, we did see 3. There were lots of egrets and a few. ducks too.b The guide went out of his way to make our tour enjoyable!

Exceptional experience learning about some of the wildlife of Louisiana. Riding the Airboat is something everyone should do! Our Captain, Garrett, was knowledgeable and funny and genuinely loved sharing his experiences with the animals. This trip is a must do when in New Orleans!

Unexpected surprises and delight on our airboat excursion. The tour operator did a fantastic job communicating with us. We received text messages prior to our shuttle driver picked us up and made sure to follow up after our trip to ensure we had the best item. Shuttle picked us up 2 hours prior to our trip. The gift shop/check-in office is well managed & restrooms were also very clean. Our airboat captain was friendly and made sure to give us lots of history and environmental information. The airboat ride was smooth and exciting. I normally get sea sick, but I didn’t feel any motion sickness. Very happy we were able to see so many alligators, birds, and the beautiful swamp landscape.
