Excellent! We one at Boggy Creek once before courtesy of ATD so, this time booked an hour one at Wild Florida. Lovely day, got picked up and dropped off at our hotel by Donald the bus driver. Did our airboat ride and then had a wander around their animal and alligator area before enjoying some lovely food in an air-conditioned surrounding. Would definitely do this again and probably with Wild Florida, very relaxing day...

Thoroughly enjoyed this airboat ride, as we didn't have a car on this trip, we decided to go on the airboat with transport, the minibus picked us up on time, with a very friendly driver. we were then taken to boogy creek, which took around 45 minutes. we were given a time the airboat would take us, we had an hours gap, so went around the nature reserve whilst we waited. the nature reserve was included in our ticket. it had alligators, panthers, a sloth etc. when it came to getting on the airboat we were taken in groups, the ranger explained everything clearly and was very informative, our only regret was that we didn't have longer. it was fantastic, wind in your hair, sunshine on your face and great fun. we shall be defiantly doing it again, great value for money.
