It was fun and interesting. We did get to see a few alligators and the “speed” portion of the boat ride was very thrilling. The boat tour guide was pretty funny as well.
Decent

Bus was air conditioned and the drive was good. German was a great driver. The tour itself was a lot of time just turning in circles and not going fast down the canals. We did see 3 alligators. The show was ok, nothing spectacular. Our 5 year old liked holding the alligator for a picture and it was reasonably priced at 10 dollars.

The airboat adventure itself was great 10/10. The bus driver was ok, not the friendliest. Kinda felt like it was cultural as my family and I are non-Spanish speaking African Americans. He was very friendly towards everyone else. I wouldn’t quite classify it as rude but he was different towards us for sure. Bus was clean enough with working ac. I really have no complaints.
