Peace River Airboat Tours & Charters

I always love this place, it's a must visit spot in this area. Good value for an hour boat ride on the river. We spotted 21 gators on a bad day and that was a record for us. I've done 5 tours here.
Bummed about the new rule that the airboat can't run on the dry land because of some new government rule, probably instigated by some crybaby group.
I had a good time busting the tour guides chops about it! All in fun and don't forget to tip your guide.
Visit the more northern location for guaranteed gator petting. In the regular season you can pet baby gators at the newly renovated Navigator Bar and grill. At this location you can enjoy lunch, hang in the tiki bar and wait for your ride time.

Pro tip, *********************go at the best sun/ warmest part of the day. This is especially important in the colder months. You will definitely see more gators. Call and book ahead and check for a Groupon.

Amazing experience. Captain Mike was excellent and knowledgeable. Lots to see and was fun. Smiles all round. Thanks for an excellent trip. Food delicious at restaurant too.

Our family of six embarked on an unforgettable adventure at Peace River Airboat Tours, and it exceeded our wildest expectations. Hailing from Chicago, we were seeking a unique experience, and boy, did we find it! From start to finish, our day with Captain Mike was nothing short of exceptional.

First and foremost, Captain Mike deserves a standing ovation for his expertise and passion. His knowledge of the local ecosystem, along with his friendly and informative commentary, added depth to our journey through the swamps. He made the experience both entertaining and educational, ensuring that every member of our family was engaged and fascinated.

The highlight of the day was undoubtedly the thrilling ride through the swamps in the monstrous airboat. The kids couldn't contain their excitement as we sped through the water, surrounded by the serene beauty of the wetlands. It was an adrenaline rush like no other, and we couldn't stop smiling.

But the surprises didn't end there. Peace River Airboat Tours went above and beyond by allowing the kids to hold a real alligator! This hands-on encounter with such a magnificent creature left our children in awe. Additionally, the opportunity to feed the animals was a delightful and educational experience that added an extra layer of enjoyment to the day.

The whole outing was an ideal blend of adventure, education, and family bonding. We can't thank the team at Peace River Airboat Tours enough for creating such an extraordinary day for us. It's not every day you get to hold an alligator and ride through swamps in a monster truck!

In summary, our trip to Peace River Airboat Tours was nothing short of magical. Captain Mike's expertise, the thrilling airboat ride, and the up-close encounters with wildlife made it a day we will cherish forever. We are immensely grateful for the memories we've created, and we wholeheartedly recommend this experience to anyone visiting the area. Thank you, Peace River Airboat Tours, for a truly remarkable day!

Lots of gators on the trip. Guide was great. Checking in was easy and the staff was courteous. The "petting zoo" was a fun addition. The gators in furthest pens were significantly bigger...

It was so fun being on the water in an airboat, my 1st time. Our guide was very knowledgeable & entertaining. We saw lots of gators & bird species. I think our guides name was Mike. We went on the 10am tour. I would definitely like to do this again.
