Private Airboat Rides & Tours
Our Rides Are Airboating, At Its Best!
We provide Airboat Rides for groups of up to 12 on some of Central Florida's most beautiful lakes and rivers. Located within easy driving distance from Orlando and Daytona Beach, Florida.
Come see alligators in their natural habitat. Deer, hogs, eagles, manatees and a variety of birds also are seen on our airboat rides. Rainbows, sunsets, and remarkable full moons are also part of our environment. We navigate the St. Johns River, Lake Jesup, and Lake Monroe. Large alligators are seen soaking up the suns rays during the day, while at night, deer can be seen swimming in the lakes and running along the shore.
We give personal attention on our Airboat Charters, this is not a ride with 22 people on one boat with a set ride agenda. This is an Airboat Ride with you, friends and family with your own driver, taking you wherever you want to go, showing you a variety of amazing things in the wild. Our first ride is at sunrise and our last ride begins just before sunset, then when nightfall comes, we use headlamps to search for alligators, just like we do while alligator hunting.
