This is a great experience, highly recommend it. We loved the ride, the outdoors, the birds, and of course the gators. We only saw a couple of gators, but it didn't matter. The ride, our fantastic guide, the beauty, being out on the water, such a great time. After the boat ride, they have a baby alligator you can take a photo with if you want. VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED read more

I didn't know there were two separate companies. I walked in the wrong building to check in. They have a shaded area with games to sit while you wait. The tour was amazing. Fresh air that I didn't know I needed. We came across alligators in the water. Mommy's protecting their eggs. The view was beautiful. 10/10 would highly recommend. Make sure to bring sunglasses and something to drink. read more

My family enjoyed this airport ride so much. The landscape was beautiful. Even if I didn't see one alligator (we saw about 5), I would've been happy because it was such a fun gorgeous ride in the middle of July. I recommend bringing sunglasses. At the end of the ride you get to hold a gator. Definitely book! read more

It's been awhile since I eaten there but it was great. A little bit of a wait not worth it.

So glad we decided to do this tour! We are in town from CA and really wanted to see some of the local flora and fauna. The boat was so fun just skating right on top of everything! Captain Austin was funny and informative and we saw a few different gators! Definitely recommend if you're in the area. read more

We picked this airboat company vs others due to the reviews even if this one was the most expensive compared to the other options... but our experience was a little disappointing. Calling out - this is "not" due to the staff or captain. We were on an airboat for an hour and we saw no mature gators = 0 ( we saw 2 small baby gators for 1 second or so) my kiddo was really disappointed. We did get to hold a baby gator at the end which was fun - we were told it is a hot day for gators to come out.... (wish i knew before i took the tickets) read more

Amazing trip, worth every dollar spent!! We came as a family of 4 & we all had a very great experience. Will definitely do it again!!

The ride was great. The guide took time to point out the alligators and gave plenty of time for pictures. We would highly recommend Wild Willy's Airboat Tours, read more

Great tour. Beautiful scenery. Recommend going in the morning to beat the heat. Easy to find and easy to book online.

Such an awesome experience! Reservations and check in were easy and smooth; the captain and airboat ride were fun, exciting and educational; saw lots of wildlife including alligators, bald eagles, birds and fish in their natural habitat; and got to hold and take pictures with one of the resident alligators at the end of the tour. Mahalo Wild Willy's for a WILD time! read more

Excellent trip on the lake. Experienced captain Brandon was good at finding gators and showing us quieter parts of the lake. Comfortable seats and ear protection added to the trips quality. Boats are easily accessible and not as bumpy as expected. Highly recommended. Would definitely do again! After our ride, Brandon pulled out a small sized gator go us to gold for photos. Great day with my family (grandparents, wife, 2 sons - 16 & 11) all enjoyed it. read more

I totally forgot to post this review. We actually went last year May. Booked online, and had a blast! We loved the tour, saw some gators. Not as much as I wanted, but was still super fun. Everyone working there were so nice. My husband was shocked I even held a baby gator. Something I would never do in the past. Well I'm getting older, and life is short, so why not. They have a small gift shop if you want to bring home souvenirs. Make sure you tip your tour guide. All in all it was a relaxing time spending with my honey. read more

So much fun! The tour guide was entertaining and informative - and honestly, the experience was breathtaking. Definitely do a dusk tour if you can. read more

Masterful navigation in the airboat and an eagle eye in search of alligators and other wildlife made this the perfect end to our trip. Choose a warm day if possible since there isn't much by way of protection from the weather as the boat cruises across the lily pads at impressive speeds. They also let us hold a little alligator at the end, which may have been the highlight. All in all a good choice if you want an Everglades experience. read more

Very fun experience and we saw lots of wildlife and gators! Our guide explained about the lake and about the gators.

So I am will be 100 percent real. We definitely had a few hiccups. But because you actually get to hold a gator is what smoothed over those. Setting up appointments was good however they did have a boat that broke down and then over looked us. We were there 2 hours early because this was our most anticipated thing to do on vacation. The weather was cold and rained in winter so gators do not come out so much as the cold times, but we did see one. Also saw a eagle and all kinds of birds and wild life. Would be amazing if they had a little heater for the covered waiting area. The driver was really nice and helpful. The gift shop was great unique items and we bought a lot. lol! read more

I kept feeling like I was on the Disney ride Soaring times1 million. This was an excellent experience. I felt safe and my adventurous side has been met too. My expectations were exceeded and I had the greatest time. It was an hour long and we saw multiple gators, hundreds of birds and so many plants. My husband loved it! It was our first time so riffing on a airboat. The captain really loved his job and was awesome too. Thank you again, HIGHLY recommend. read more

I had the rare opportunity to spend some time with my dad in Orlando for Spring Break recently. He has some cardiac and mobility issues, so the typical Orlando attractions aren't the best touristy things for him to do. I did a Google search for things to do with Seniors in Orlando and this airboat tour was one of the first things to pop up. I suggested it to him and he expressed concern about the "adventure" being too much for him, so I purchased the 1/2 hour tour rather than the hour. We LOVED our tour and wish we had done the hour tour instead because we just couldn't get enough of the beauty of the swamp and the "adventure" of the airboat. I know someday I'm going to cherish this memory even more, but this was absolutely better than any park we could have visited. read more

I am so glad that I didn't help this place before our visit. I would have freaked out at the surprise at the end... or I wouldn't have came..lol.

We had fun on a private tour with Brandon as our guide! We saw a few alligators and had a great time!

Looked these guys up on Yelp, and I highly recommend them as does everyone! We visited Florida for a few reasons and this was one of them. We had a great time on our tour. Our tour guide was funny and knowledgeable about all the animals we encountered! If your looking for an airboat/crocodile tour book this place now! And I suggest a mid day tour! read more

Sunday morning airboat tour was fun with lots of wildlife viewing. Our guide Brian was very knowledgeable and entertaining. We mostly spotted a variety of birds but the nice surprise were the mamma alligator protecting her nest of eggs and a baby alligator sunning on the shoreline. After the tour we got to hold a young alligator for photos. The young gator is actually from a farm and will go to Gator-Land when it's about 3 feet long. read more

Booked a 3pm private tour for 6 people on 2/24/19 and we had a blast! Weather was perfect too! When we arrived at Wild Willy's I noticed the place was nicely kept. Simple but welcoming. They have a nice outdoor seating by the waters which was perfect for lounging or sightseeing as cranes and their chicks were just casually strolling by. When our tour started, we rode a 6 seater airboat. I appreciated that we were handed "earmuffs" as the boat could get pretty loud. We were accompanied by Captain AJ who was very chill, friendly and knowledgeable about gators and the area. He maneuvered the airboat extremely well! From going to slow and high speeds, from 360's and pretty much just navigating the waters and making sure we get a feel of the place, the ride as well as ensuring we get to see as much wildlife as we could. During our trip, we got to see a chicken snake (what!), cranes, BALD EAGLES!!, snails, a turtle, and with the Captain's his keen eyes, we got to see at least 5 alligators! Icing on the cake, we also get to hold a real gator at the end of the tour. It was amazing! Highly recommend! read more

Our airboat tour with Cabe was amazing! He was knowledgeable about the area, wildlife, and a skilled airboat driver. He was considerate of wildlife, slowing to approach different species to allow us to view during the tour. We were able to see alligators, cranes, cows, a bald eagle, and other bird species. read more

Tour was great! We saw the largest gator I ever did see (over 12'!). Boating through the reeds and grass was wild. I would recommend bringing a jacket because it was down right nippy even with one! All and all worth the money! My family was super thankful that I boo read more
