The skipper was great and slowed whenever he saw some wildlife. The ecology of the Everglades is amazing. We saw one alligator and an Osprey. The forty minutes weren’t long enough. Next time we go we want take a longer ride.

I’ve done many day trips to the Everglades but this was my first night tour. It was very cool to see how much more active the alligators are at night. This is a must see for anyone that likes wildlife and nature.

Great experience at Sawgrass with my family. Our guide, Mike, was very knowledgeable and funny as well. We so two gators out in the glades. The animal exhibit was a nice bonus as my boys enjoyed holding a baby gator. Would definitely recommend this spot for anyone looking for something to do in the Fort Lauderdale area.

We have taken this same tour four times over the years. We have seen lots of alligator each time and other wildlife. It is a great time for all ages including small children. We will be back.

Talk about poor communication and safety hazards! We arrived 45min early and glad we did! There is no signage or lighting to indicate where to go after hours to park or check in. We head for the store in the dark up slanted stairs and go into the store as this is the only building with lights and are promptly told to “wait outside, we will let you know when to check in.” Then we are told to head for the boat down inclines - again no lights to guide us. The boat ride driver seemed in a hurry to finish the ride as fast as possible because we caught up to the first boat that left approx 10 min before us -
I found this excursion a complete
rip off and waste of time to see 2 alligators, a bird amd an eguana in a tree -

Enjoyed our air boat ride. Our tour guide was really good with finding gators. We felt he was experienced and seemed knowledgeable about gators.

When we found out our day trip later in the week was going to be rained out we quickly jumped onto the calendar and found out they were doing a night trip in just a few hours! Booking was a breeze, check-in was a breeze, and off we went. Our captain must have psychic relations with the Gators because even going as fast as we were going he was scanning the Everglades with a large spotlight and immediately would stop and go over to where a gator was. He told us he looks for their orange eyes glowing back in the light that only he can see at his angle sitting high above us on the boat. In one hour we saw five gators. But the most spectacular part of it was the last Gator that we saw actually entertained us. He swam around our boat, he posed for pictures, he smiled, he went under our boat ...came up on the other side... and basically stayed there until we left. The captain continually reposition the boat so both sides could see him very clearly, (a little too up close and personal, at times, if you ask me. You could reach over and touch him if you didn't want your limb. Lol.) There was a certain element of mystery doing this at night. It was a full moon and you could see in front of you but you were still cruising along in the darkness. That part of it was really spectacular. I highly recommend this tour. I even feel if we did not see gators it would have been worth it because just cruising along by moonlight was really wonderful.
