Take an airboat tour and see all the wonders of nature in their natural state! Glide over a “river of grass” and along the way enjoy the flora (water lilies, sawgrass and cattails to name a few) and fauna (some might expect to see turtles, snakes, birds and alligators)! We do not cage or pen any animals and we do not feed them!enjoy these wonders in their natural habitat! « less

The air boat tour was great, We were given sound canceling head sets and could hear the guide clearly tell us about the plants and animals. I have lived in Florida for 40 years and learned a lot I never even thought about. He stopped the boat when we saw animals and flowering plants so we could get a close... More

Great location and a really good place to visit. We were lucky enough to be the only people on the air boat and the guide provided excellent information throughout.

A beautiful experience and well worth the cost for older kids and adults. I called, and was told they did not take reservations (despite some conflicting information on the literature I had for this place). So, we headed down, bought our tickets and waited for about an hour in the little museum, full of historical newspaper clippings on the walls... More

My 4 year old son and I did a son/mommy date on our recent trip to Florida, and the one thing on my list was this. I can say, we were NOT disapointed. Wild Lyle was our tour guide, and the information he gave us was so fascinating, and informative. We got to see alligators, and different birds- it was... More

We were staying in Ft Lauderdale for 4 nights before a cruise. We wanted to venture into the Everglades for a tour, but didn't want a too early start, as we still wanted a night out the day before. So we stumbled across Loxahatchee Everglades Tours, from Google. This was a fantastic experience, and great value for money. It's only... More

My cousins and I decided to drive from West Palm Beach to do this tour and it was worth very second of it! The people are really friendly and knowledgeable, it was probably the best hour of my vacation. And the air boat is just so cool!! Couldn't believe the things it could go over. Thanks Wild Lyle!!

The air-boats for this tour have "tiered" seating, higher as you go back on the boat. This enables everyone to have good views and to be able to take clear pictures. Dan, the guide, was excellent. He knew the everglades, the wildlife, how to find gators, etc. All the tour personnel were very helpful and friendly. I think this would... More

We didn't realize how close this Everglades natural experience was to our beach hotel--what a great 1/2 day away from the beach! The 1-hour tour through the Everglades with a knowledgeable guide (hi Reggie!) was a terrific learning opportunity and a lot of fun. Do it!!! (And take the good camera--there are some great sites out there.) Definitely recommend for... More
