My best friend and I were in Miami 10/5-10/8 for her birthday and wanted to do a different experience. After a quick Google search, we decided on Airboat in Everglades. They gave us a fair price for the two of us so we reserved the hour. Upon arrival, we met Captain Pete who was so amazing!! He’s fearless, LOVES the Everglades and the gators, is extremely knowledgeable on the entire eco system and makes the ride fun! He knows so many gators and you’ll swear they know him too!! I suggest this experience with Captain Pete for anyone going to Miami area.

We took a two hour private tour with Captain Pete. While it was more expensive than the other tours, It was worth the money. We saw many alligators, a turtle and beautiful birds. The vast everglades are breathtaking. It was worth taking this tour so we could explore the natural beauty of the everglades.

What an amazing experience !!! He made it for me and my wife to feel absolutely comfortable !!! What an amazing guy and truly knowledgeable in what he does. Like he said this is not a job.. but something he loves to do everyday. You can see this in his heart.. Also I am writing this 20 minutes after our experience! These Airboat Tours are awesome!

We did a 1.5 hour private sunset tour with Captain Lo and it was amazing! I had done an airboat ride before but it sucked compared to this one. Captain Lo made this a great experience with his extensive knowledge and great boat-handling skills. He showed us several alligators and some really cool birds and we really appreciated how respectful he was to the environment. It was the perfect way to introduce us to southern Florida and learn about the Everglades. Highly recommend.

There is a special level of concern one has when meeting up at a sketchy gas station and handing over a credit card to pay $$$ to some stranger in the deep south of Florida. I can’t tell you that I was entirely comfortable with the process even after meeting with the people running the airboat adventure. We were asked to follow a van that was the only “Corporate Branded” item in the entire process which, oddly, made me feel a little at ease.

Even if the process was not perfect, and the meet up was an adventure to itself, the boat ride was AWESOME. We were whisked across the grassy everglades and brought deep into places that we would never have been able to access. We were concerned that we wouldn’t see alligators but we saw many of them. Our Captain was amazing, he was knowledgeable, funny and full of information about the local wild life. We took a 1 hour private package (Totally worth it!!) with our 2 kids and they were able to see and enjoys all aspects of the everglades.

We had an awesome time and the kids tell us this was the highlight of their trip!!
