Great tour!

We had an amazing tour! Captain Jason was very knowledgeable and passionate about the alligators! He knew where their spots were, called out for some that he knew would be around, and discussed all the wildlife we saw! He also filled us in on typical gator temperament/ how they are depicted on TV and why it may be different. Super interesting!
Young and old gators

This was an excellent tour. It was about a 25 minute drive from downtown. Please follow the swamp tour signs on the road once you get close because my gps was directing me to turn earlier than I should have. Anyway, I brought along my 5 year old and 18 year old and they had a good time. We saw a bunch of alligators, birds and turtles. Also some sort of jumping fish. Our guide Darren (?) was great. He kept us laughing, explained so much history and always stopped the boat to allow us to get great pics. He also had snacks for purchase and a restroom on board. Great experience!
Great Family Adventure

This was a pleasant tour. The weather was nice. The boat was a good size for the group. The guide was knowledgeable and patient. We saw a lot of nature and wildlife. We learned a lot about the animals and the habitat. Even my teenager commented that the tour guide was instructive and didn’t resort to lame jokes to interact with the group. Everyone enjoyed this activity.
Good Tour!

The tour was okay but misleading. There are no different environments. You travel down the main canal and here a bit about it. Turn and come back. They throw dog food and alligators come (they say for fish) which is pretty questionable. There were no stops and we saw a turtle and a bird.

Our tour guide Jaime did a great job he was hilarious and informative. Any time we had a question he knew the answer right away. We got to see alligators a cute little soft shell turtle , an owl , a blue herring and some lizards that boarded the boat with us. It was beautiful and a fun time.

I booked the tour for Saturday afternoon coming from Texas we were 20 mins late😕 and missed the boat 😂 but luckily the lady from the ofc called to check if we made it and helped to reschedule for Sunday which was greatly appreciated!! The tour guide and Captain Jason was very informative and the weather was perfect. All in all a good time!!
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
