Gator Park Airboat Tours

Based in the heart of the Everglades National Park, Gator Park is known for its vast wildlife, from hundreds of bird species, alligators, turtles, snakes, fish and the Florida crocodile.

You can also take airboat tours in Miami, which takes you deep into the Everglades National Park. All tours are narrated by professional guides so you’ll get the opportunity to learn about the unique wetlands and its native inhabitants.

The park guides can show you how to wrestle a large alligator at their exciting Wildlife Show and if you’re brave enough, you can even hold a baby gator in your arms!

At Gator Park, you will also have the chance to walk around and visit the residents’ turtles, macaws and peacocks.

The Gator Airboat Tours begins slowly down the canal with plenty of opportunity to observe wildlife in its natural habitat. Then, the boat will pick up speed and head for the ‘river of grass’ (known as the Everglades). The boat will pass through several fishing camps used by Indians, a structure made of palm and cypress wood called a chickee. Throughout the trip you will also get to see alligators, mammals such as raccoons, whitetail deer and wild boar and much much more.

After your Everglades airboat tours, take a break at one of the parks surroundings restaurant from traditional foods such as hotdogs and hamburgers to various Everglades specialists such as alligator tail, frogs legs and catfish.

Florida is a popular family holiday destination with millions of tourists choosing it as a holiday destination of choice. Theme parks, beaches and towns are extremely busy and so it is highly recommended that parents ensure their children wear id bracelets detailing ICE contact numbers and details of any medical conditions such as allergies, asthma or diabetes.

A whole day can be spent in this park learning about the wildlife, so why not come down and try it for yourself. It’s a once in a lifetime experience.
