"NOT WORTH THE MONEY"

Not worth going with this company’s swap tour. They don’t tell you until you’re done that it is not an alligator tour and they don’t guarantee you will see any!!!! Supposed to take everyone’s pictures but they don’t look for you, you have to look for them. NOT WORTH THE MONEY!!! I took an alligator tour in December 2021 and it was awesome. They got to show you other wildlife. You got to feed the alligators real food up close and personal as well as hold a baby alligator and this one cost more.
