Airboat tours
My parents are down for the week and we thought an airboat tour might be fun.
Has anyone done this and is there a specific tour company you recommend?

I have done a tour int he ever glades but not near Orlando. I know there is one on 520 not too far from I-95 but havent done one... they seem to run a lot of rides so they are prob decent. I know they have been there for over 10 years.

There is also one on Shingle Creek off of 192 in Kissimmee that is very cool. There is also a few on Lake Toho. They are super fun and it really makes you appreciate the beauty of nature around here.

Thanks all. We ended up doing A-awesome Airboats in Christmas and had a blast.
It was just $45 for just the 4 of us on a small boat for 90 minutes.
That was just a bit more than a large (30 person) boat for a 30 minute ride
We had a great time.

Go to Airboatwilly.com. I live in the area and my vacationing relatives like this one the best. They also have live baby gators in their office to hold and take pics with
