It was my first time on an airboat and seeing alligators in the everglades. The airboat tour was one of my highlights on my Florida Trip :) The ride was very smooth and I felt very safe. The noise of the airboat may be loud for some people but you're all given noise cancelling headphones to wear (if you like).... More

While not the Everglades, you will still have a great experience! We saw at least 50 alligators out on the boat and all kinds of birds. The airboats are very stable and smooth, with the noise level being not too bad. Our guide took his time and gave us great views of the wildlife and vegetation. We knew this would... More

OMG! Our family had so much fun. Saw over 30 gators upclose in the wild. Beautiful birds as well. They also have some cool snakes and birds in cages at the reservation area. Make sure to make a reservation ahead of time. Very reasonably priced.

We had a good time and were warned when we got there that there were only a few alligators to.see. Wish I had been told that before driving over an hour. But the owners and captain were really nice and friendly and have us a good your. If you have your heart set on seeing lots of alligators then go... More

This is a blast! Not only are you on a really cool boat but you experience the animals in their environment. Our guide 'Greg', who is also a photographer, worked hard to give us an awesome adventure. He would slow down and creep along, then go super fast across the lake! He would stop and name the wildlife ie. birds,... More

This was so much fun!! Bubba, our tour guide, was informative and he knew how to get us "up close and personal" with the alligators!! The speed was perfect, not too fast or wild...just lots of fun! This was a well spent $75 for the two of us. We felt like we got our money's worth. And then the young... More

A MUST do! The airboat ride was educational and fun. We saw at least 30 gators ranging in size from hatchlings to a 12 footer! The boat gets up close and personal with the gators and all of the wildlife. Saw so many beautiful birds to include Rosetta spoonbills....so lovely. The boat ride is a blast and the captain was...

I'd highly recommend A&A for Florida vacationers. I'm an NY resident who has never been on an airboat ride before so I can't compare A&A to other places but I can say that the people were very friendly and we had a wonderful time. The one-hour tour provides three things - the experience of an airboat ride, up-close viewing of... More
