  • Alligator swamp tour

    Overall this was a nice tour! Seen several alligators and had plenty of time for video and photo opps. Although the tour guide was rude he put on a good show feeding and playing 😱 with the alligator he calls Jumpy. The boat also needs speakers in the back so all passengers can hear the guide. Overall it was a fun family friendly tour.

  • Awesome time!
