Airboat Wilderness Rides

Paul Girard

Very educational and nice ride around the marsh looking at many different bird species and lots of alligators.

Laura was the most incredibly knowledgeable, mannerly, competent and delightful tour guide I have experienced. I am a retired school teacher and I was so impressed by the way she taught an amazing array of facts about animal and plant life on our tour. Keeping 7 children of different ages totally enthralled is not an easy feat. She did it with humor - all the while keeping the adults on board completely entertained and engaged. I cannot wait to take another tour with Wilderness Rides when new company visits. I will definitely ask for Laura. I'm still smiling, thinking about that wonderful day on the airboat.

Johnny was a great guide! We had so much fun and will definitely recommend.

I have been on several Airboat tours, twice with Wilderness Rides. Both times I have seen so many more gators than on any other tour (mostly Miami area), and especially the last time which was epic insofar as we got to even see baby gators! The various captains also highlight the many birds inhabiting the reserve. This is a highly recommended tour for anyone who wants the "Glades experience." Do not hesitate to book this tour! Also ask about the various discounts at restaurants located in Fellsmere that you're entitled to for taking the tour...
