5.00Absolutely amazing experience! The people who work here are so lovely. We got to see plenty of Aligators and also met and fed the mini highland cows. Was so nice to see them in wild. The airboat was something I will never forget and I felt lucky to of been able to of experienced it. All staff were so friendly and went above and beyond! The only thing I would recommend is if you book via attraction tickets what they fail to advise is that you should make a reservation. Lucky for us a party cancelled and Boggy creek was able to accommodate us. I would highly recommend this experience to people of all ages!! We will definitely be back again and will recommend to all our friends and family.
Great experience

5.00We absolutely loved our airboat ride. Our driver was funny and did a great job looking out for alligators hidden in the leaves. He also did a fantastic job driving the air boat and making really cool side turns that were exciting. We were there the last week of April and saw two full grown alligators as well as baby alligators in three different spots. We visited a Sand Hill Crane nest, saw many different kinds of birds and een saw cows in the water! We arrived 45 minutes early and visited the butterfly compound and played a game of corn hole before the ride. Highly recommend Boggy Creek Airboat Adventures.
Awesome Experience absolutely worth it.

5.00Fun, Fun, and More Fun. Took an afternoon off from the big theme parks to try a different activity. About a 45 drive from our resort. We took the one-hour ride. Highly recommend it. The grandkids loved it. We saw a bunch of alligators (8-10) of different sizes and shapes. The guide knew just where to go. The ride itself was exhilarating as he cruised through the marsh and tall grasses. In addition to the ride, the kids loved the butterfly enclosure. They could have spent hours in there.

5.00Fantastic experience out on the airboats. We saw lots of baby gators and a few big ones too. One around 7ft and a huge one around 10ft! Just magnificent! We also saw a casual cow munching on the lily pads, horses and so many different birds including eagles and herons. Captain Brandon was such a great guy, very knowledgable and interesting. We had a fluttering good time in the butterfly house and saw some rescued gators in the pen. Lunch was super tasty and they cater for Gluten free which was such a nice touch! Panning for crystals and mini highland cows were also included and just wonderful. Highly recommend to all ages.
Well worth the effort

5.00This was our second visit to Boggy Creek..my wife and I visited last year and enjoyed it so much we decided to take our children along this year. They had an amazing time! They loved the airboat ride and we ended up seeing some pretty big gators. We did the hour trip this time as last year we only did 30 minutes and left wanting more.
