“Picked up early but as we saw at the end of the tour this meant no queue. Had a photo included in the price. Tour guide antoine was very knowledgeable and gave a good history and insight into where we were going. It was a small group of 11. The boat was terrific fun and we saw around 15 alligators, vultures, birds of prey, fish, a snake really close up in the air boat. Then a show which explained the role of the volunteers (mental) and alligators. Incredibly brave/bonkers. Would highly recommend”

Make sure you get on at the same stop as you get off for the boat trip as we missed out a leg of the hop on hop off, as we got off and walked to Bayside, and then got back on outside Bayside. Excellent value for money.”
