The support attempted accommodations 3x without issue or attitude - I ended up having to deal with support, rescheduling several times because of weather first but then I was unable to work it in - over scheduling for one day because we had a tour that was going to overlap some. The support rescheduled, no issues. The last attempt was for 10am on Saturday and I wanted to try to do it but the more I considered it, the more I knew I would not make it back in time to return my car rental.

A great tour - Our tour guide was amazing! He was very knowledgeable and also very funny. It was amazing to me that he could whistle & call the gators and several of them actually responded by approaching the boat!! We saw some beautiful birds and several turtles along with many gators

Take the Tour - We really enjoyed the tour! The boat itself was a good size, not too crowded and equipped with snacks we could purchase during the tour. The gators were a site to see and the guide was entertaining which made the tour a lot of fun.
