The tour was absolutely wonderful. The whole family went and the staff were very knowledgeable of the area and we're very nice to talk to. Our captain gave lots of information about the wildlife we saw and withing the first ten minutes we had seen more than 5 aligators. By the end of the tour we had seen gators (of all sizes, we saw 2 that were 7 foot and several that wereally less than a year old), bald eadles, snail kite, heron, turtles, and so much more. The captain answered any questions we had, and was more than happy to slow down or turn around for us to take pictures. We had taken an airboat tour of the Everglades swamp and this undoubtedly tops it. If we get the chance we will be coming back!

Great experience in many aspects; Captain Mike provided a knowledgeable tour of birds, plants, gators, turtles, etc. The headphones were a significant benefit in noise reduction and communicating with Mike (his guide information and allowing us to asking questions). Friendly staff, all interested in providing a wonderful experience. Other airboat companies on the St John River stated seeing a alligator was not too likely with high water (allowing the alligators to move away from the river into the wooded marshes). Kissimmee Swamp Tours expected us to view alligators. We saw at least 8 alligators (largest was about 8 feet long) as well as a wide variety of birds; including the rare Snail Kite Hawk (both male and female). We were on the water about 15 minutes when it started raining pretty hard; the tour was suspended for about 20 minutes and then completed (we didn't expected to get a break from the rain Mike was considerate). Highly recommended.

Their website really says it all. This was so much more than your average boat ride. This was a Florida experience. Swamps, birds, apple snails, turtles, snail kite, great blue heron and so many more. Oh I can't leave out the gators!! We saw 2 large females and dozens of baby Gators. Plus 2 adolescents just swimming around. The captain, Brooke, was awesome and super knowledgeable. Hurricane Irma had just come through so things had been turned upside down, but you can tell they really know their lake and navigated it expertly. The small 6 seater boat gets you up close and personal with the lake and natural wildlife. This is a must do!! The staff was also super helpful and called back twice to help us drive to the docks correctly. It was worth the little bit extra cost and longer drive.

We had an excellent airboat tour! I recommend to people of all ages. We took the 90 minute tour and Loved every one of those minutes. Every one at Kissimmee Swamp Tours was so nice and interested in making the ride great for us.

Wife and I went here on out 1st trip to Florida around April. Got to say we loved it.. the staff Were very friendly, they even gave us a call back to make sure we didn't get lost which we did by the way. And the caption was very nice funny and know a lot of he's swamp. We love the fact that he took he's time to show us the whole land, not no 20 min ride and get off my boat type. We will Definitely be back next time we are in the Florida. Thanks guys greeting from N.Y.

Went on a swamp tour with Captain Bud. We saw at least a dozen gators and countless birds and other wildlife. Captain Bud did a great job of getting us close and answering our questions. Highly recommend the trip.

Our family had a fantastic time on our 1.5 hour airboat ride. With the smaller boat we were able to get into lots of tight locations and get closer to animals than we could with a larger boat. Our captain asked what we wanted to see and he went out of his way to find it for us. The 2-way radio headsets were great. Our captain was able to give us lots of great information about the nature all around us while allowing us to ask lots of questions. A very entertaining and educational experience for our kids and us adults.

Found them online and they were great. Nice day trip out away from the hustle and bustle of Orlando. Family run business and everyone exceptionally friendly. Extremely knowledgeable guides. Really good fun would recommend wholeheartedly.
