Everglades Airboat Tour FAQ

Dress comfortably for the outdoors: sunscreen, sunglasses (with a strap), a hat and light layers. Closed-toe shoes or sandals are both fine. Mornings can feel cool on the water even in summer, and afternoons are bright and warm, so plan for the time of day you're riding. Bring a light jacket for sunrise, sunset and night tours.

We ride a wild, gator-rich stretch of the Everglades and see alligators on the vast majority of tours, along with herons, egrets, turtles and osprey.
