"Love this place !!"
November 2020
The airboat ride was spectacular ! Our expectations were exceeded especially after the zoo and then the drive thru safari. It was certainly better than Disney ! And much more affordable, we will definitely be back . Clean, well kept grounds and animals. Peter was extremely knowledgable, friendly and talented. We even gave your brochure to our hotel front desk so they could check it out themselves.

"Great fun!"
February 2019
This was a great experience! I highly recommend Dennis as your tour guide. He could be a stand up comedian. The wildlife were amazing! Lots of birds and a couple of alligators were interesting and we learned a bit about Florida wildlife. I would go again anytime!

"Great Experience"
February 2018
We had never been on an airboat before. It was a great experience. Our guide was terrific. He got us up close to a number of alligator 's as we made way through the water. We most certainly would come back here for another ride!

"fun day"
October 2017
day was overcast, but that did not slow down our fun day. Animals, most were very well kept. white tale deer could use a little help.The food was very good and a good price. The air boat ride is not required, but we went for it, and very glad we did. Mark was our captain/tour guide. Great time. Would HIGHLY recommend.

"Family vacation 2015"
April 2015
We really enjoyed our time in Florida. The airboat ride at Wild Florida was exceptional. Our boat Captain ( John ) was very knowledgeable of the area where he took us. We seen many gators and other animals that are indigenous to the area. There were three groups in our family and we all made reservations at separate times. Wild Florida was very accommodating in getting our groups together so we could ride in one boat. After the airboat ride we walked through the animal park. We had the pleasure to see feeding 10+ foot alligators and many of the different animals they have on display. Would do it again in the future.

Tip: Take the early boat ride. More gators and animals moving about. Don't be in a hurry. Take your time, relax and have fun. Just as it should be when vacationing.

"Awesome Airboat ride."
April 2015
We had a great ride for our group of 15. Our Capt. Was very good and knew where to look for Gators. The Zoo was also pretty neat, my 2 year old nephew got to hug and hold a 2 foot Gator.
