We started working with Nicole at the Sawgrass Recreation Park in January for our large group to do a private airboat tour during our company offsite. I'm not going when I say this was one of the most incredible things we've ever done. Everyone loved that food we added for catering, and the tour itself was great. While we only saw a few gators, it was just so beautiful. Just miles and miles of wetlands and getting to experience this with our team was truly magical. Nicole and the team easily accommodated our group of 85 and I will definitely be back.

The airboat ride could have been better, try not to get the 2pm tour because the alligators will be in the water and harder to see. After the ride, though, we checked out the rescued animals, and Shame certainly enhanced the experience with his knowledge and stories. I wasn't interested in the tortoise he mentioned, but I LOVED the baby chicks, didn't expect to see those in Fla. I definitely recommend this experience!

Trip was amazing. Our Captain Trey did a fantastic job taking us out, and finding wildlife in the area. During our trip we saw seven alligators! It was a wonderful time for our family. The trip was also very relaxing and safe. Never felt nervous about anything. We also got the opportunity to see baby gators and had a chance to pet them. The Sawgrass team was very respectful and took safety very seriously during the entire time. It was a wonderful experience. Thank you!

Very nice ride on airboat and description of nature. We encountered two alligators and several birds.

Oh my goodness! I loved this...the Everglades at night are so amazingly etereal. And we had a great time searching out alligators. One was not happy with us and banged right into the boat. But the best part was just taking in the beauty of the Everglades at night.

This is an excellent tour if you truly want to see alligators and increase your knowledge of them. Our captain, Nick, was extremely knowledgeable and gave us the opportunity to see so many alligators from new borns to adults. We explored other native wildlife as well. It was non-stop alligator sightings where we were taken close up to get great video and photos. This is definitely the tour to book. Don’t waste your money elsewhere. Take this tour.

Incredible experience! We spent an hour on the air boat at night with Captain Robert and would highly recommend! Not for young children, but our teenagers loved it! Thrilling tour but still felt safe with our knowledgeable guide. Would do it again!

Captain Disco was great, informative and a good guide. We saw 4 alligators, but it’s understandable once you learn about the alligators move around in their habitat. It was pretty cool they way he would spot them with the flashlight.

Captain Chuck really showed us a good time! We saw alligators, herons, coots and fish. The sunset was beautiful! Highly recommend the private over the group, for the main reason the boat. The group boat sit down inside, like an amusement ride. Private group boat sits high on top of the boat. You get a better view, lots of wind and the feeling of gliding over the saw grass is so fun!
