Fun for the whole family. Saw many alligators and other wildlife . Boat ride was super fun. Holding an alligator and seeing the animals at the site was a great bonus. Captain Ron was great and knowledgeable.

We had a great fan boat tour. Captain Disco was our guide and he was great. He was very knowledgeable, answered all our questions, and was able to show us many alligators and other wildlife. We had a great time.

We had such a great time with Captain Disco! We booked a private tour, so it was just the two of us and the captain. It was nice to just have our own booking so we could ask as many questions as we wanted. Way better than doing a tour with strangers. I think we booked at the perfect time (9am) because once we got back, the place was flooding with people! April was also a good choice because the gators aren't too hot and hiding down in the cold water, so we saw several gators just hanging about. Access to the exhibits was great too. We got to hold a little gator and see other cool crocs, gators, etc.

We had a private tour with Captain Jack. The experience was rich with detail of the ecological system of the Everglades. Captain Jack led the way to allow to see not only the alligators but most of the residents of the park. The airboat ride was amazing too! We also had a chance to see the displays and pet a baby alligator! Highly recommended!

Great experience! Saw lots of gators and our captain was very knowledgeable. Beautiful perfect day! We did the private day tour and our captain recommended a night tour next time- we will for sure do that next time!
