Return transport options from OrlandoSee the wild side of Florida on an Everglades airboat tour!
It’s definitely worth taking a day off from the theme parks to visit Florida’s beautiful Everglades – and the best way to explore them properly is on a Wild Florida airboat tour!
The Everglades are just a short drive from the Orlando and Disney area, but here you’ll see a totally different side to the region, with no signs of human life anywhere around!
Explore the home of the Florida Alligator!
These airboat eco tours bring you closer than you’d ever imagine to the birds and animals that call the Everglades their home, including the big daddy of them all – the Famous Florida Alligator!
With an experienced guide at the helm you won't need to worry about missing any of the animal action, as they're well-trained in knowing exactly where and how to spot the gators and other creatures that might be lurking close by.
The airboat captain will also keep you entertained with all kinds of fun and fascinating facts about Florida’s native wildlife along the ride!
The most Eco-Friendly way to explore
As well as being the best mode of transport for navigating the Everglades, airboats are one of the safest option for the animals who live there too.
Unlike a propeller-driven boat, airboats don’t have any moving parts below the surface that could potentially injure a manatee, alligator or other native creatures.
Wild Florida’s airboats are also insured with a fleet of US Coast Guard-approved boats and captains, so you can rest assured that you’re in safe hands.
Free Entry to Wild Florida’s Wildlife Park
As well as an airboat ride, you can spend as long as you like at the Wild Florida Wildlife Park, where you can:
- Come face-to-face with all kinds of native and exotic animals
- Take part in an interactive alligator demonstration
- Hold a real baby gator!
- Get hands-on and pet the tortoises
- Feed the native Floridian White Tail Deer, the African Zebras & the Watusis (you’ll recognise them by their huge horns!)
- See beautiful tropical birds spread their colourful wings in the Bird Aviary
BBQ at the Wildlife Park*
Join the BBQ at Wild Florida and enjoy some truly delicious American food. Sink your teeth into a feast of smoked ribs, chicken, pulled pork, fried alligator and even frog legs!
Book an Animal Encounter for 1-on-1 time with the animals!
Want to spend even more time with the animals? Wild Florida’s Animal Encounters give you the chance to pet, feed and maybe even hug some of the park’s most adorable residents!
