Had a great time with my family on vacation here. Saw 4 alligators on the airboat tour and Ariel did an excellent job with the Animal Encounters where we got to hold several amazing animals. Would definitely recommend.

Airboat rides was amazing. The Everglades were beautiful. Recommend for all ages very informative. Wish the water level was a bit higher.

Airboat Captain Chandler was knowledgeable and interesting. Plus, we didn’t drown or get eaten by a gator 😉 His personality is fit for this job - thanks Chandler!! The Gator Boys show was entertaining and informative. Even my three teenagers agreed and enjoyed themselves. This is a great family trip and we even got a great family photo. Highly recommend!

For an airboat, we thought we would have faster runs. Boat ride was very slow and uneventful… Although it was beautiful I wouldn’t go on it again. The show was good though.

Do not expect to see really any wildlife. Yes a couple of birds but no alligators or snakes or anything you can’t see. The nature part of looking at grass and water lilies got boring after 20 minutes.

Save your money and go on the smaller airboat tours, was excited to try this place out because of all the amazing reviews and it was terrible slowest airboat more talking than anything. Truly disappointing Boat ride wasn’t even a full hour like advertised. For being the fastest air of in florida it forsure is the slowest and not thrilling at all! DONT BE FOOLED LIKE WE WERE

Our driver Joshua was AMAZING! Picked up at a local meeting spot and offered great advices and knowledge of the park and attractions The airboat tour was very informative- sadly I don’t remember the captains name. But his knowledge & humor made the tour enjoyable. I’d recommend to friends. Thank you for the experience… especially to Joshua

The airboat tour was fun, especially when it ran on high speed. The alligator show was the best. It also provided baby alligator and snakes for the brave ones to take pictures with

The Everglades Holiday Park is mostly a pathetic and crowded tourist trap. The airboat ride was a little bit fun - but not very much. Just don't expect to see any wildlife while on the boat. From the minute you arrive you begin hearing cautions about not being guaranteed to see any alligators. Of course any self-respecting wild animals would flee the area where boat after boat after boat passes by every 10 minutes, each filled with ~100 gawking tourists and a boat driver narrating each step of the trip. But these boats are not ordinary motor boats, which are plenty loud; these boats have twin 500 horsepower engines that are REALLY SUPER LOUD. Wear earplugs and enjoy the brief speedboat ride. But -- wildlife encounters -- haha, no, of course not. The everglades themselves are just lush expanses of tall grass -- interesting for about the first 5 minutes. So, in an attempt to make up for this underwhelming trip, the boat drivers fill your time with humor as much as they can. It's a living. Afterwards (or beforehand) there is an "Alligator Display and Show" that is nice enough and worth seeing while you are there. However, the show is marred by the performer lamenting that he is an unpaid volunteer and you should give him a nice tip to support him and the environmental protection group that he works for. There are no signs (or if so I missed them) to highlight what this group is nor for you to consider making a charitable contribution to support their work. Just a big tip box where the performer stands as you exit. The whole thing just feels like a cheesy tourist trap. My opinion: Find something better to do. FYI: my wife and I attended without any children. It might be more interesting for young kids who have little experience with either nature or boats. But, meh.
