We had an AMAZING time with Captain Scott! He was knowledgeable and very entertaining! He made sure everyone had plenty of time to take pictures and answered every question we could ask. He knew every bird, plant, and creature on the lake. He was even kind enough to pull the boat up to a "turtle" which turned out to be a lump of grass...and reassured me that I wasn't crazy for thinking so...We saw four full grown alligators, at least a hundred babies of all sizes, a beautiful red headed crane and his nest of two eggs, a few eagles, and an entertaining little bird that followed the boat! He was a hit with our eight year old!

Captain Jim was a wonderful source of information about the marsh and it's inhabitants. I have a touchy back and was a little concerned that the ride would be rough. It was not. One glided over the reed and open water very smoothly. Access to and from the boat from the dock was very easy. The boat was held tight to the dock and they were level with each other. We went on the 90 minuite tour but the next time we go down we will book the 2 hour tour.

We booked two days beforehand for our airboat ride and we had Captain Bill who was brilliant! One of the reasons for choosing Marsh Landings was that there were five of us and we knew we would get a smaller airboat to ourselves rather than one of the bigger boats the other companies offer where you are with lots of other people and could be sat behind someone tall and not be able to see much!! We saw a nest with several baby alligators in, a bald eagle, a cottonmouth snake, a turtle and several big alligators. Captain Bill was very entertaining and knowledgeable. It was also great fun to go across the marshes at a reasonable pace in the boat and the hour went by all too quickly.

We booked the 4 hour tour not knowing it was one of the first they offered. We could not tell, it felt like this was well planned and very fun! I rented two boats for our party (7 people). We had 4 adults and 3 kids. I had my daughter visiting from Norway with her boyfriend and my grand-daughter, so I was really hoping this would be a memorable trip. This trip exceeded my expectations.Captains Chris and Scott worked together to give us a experience that made us feel together as a family, yet gave us the best view of the wild-life when they had to separate so as not to spook the animals we came to see. My daughters group loved Captain Scott, and we loved Captain Chris.Book this! Get the 4 hour it is so worth it. It went by so fast I could not see any reason to book a shorter trip. Our pictures and memories cannot have a price put on them!

Captain Scott was great, a lot of fun and very knowledgeable. I would do the trip again and would request Captain Scott as our guide. ☺

Great 90 minute tour of the headwater swamps of the Everglades with site seeing of various birds, waterfowl, turtles and alligators. The airboat captain was very knowledgeable and entertaining. Very safe trip and fun. The airboats dock almost level with the dock so those with limited mobility can easily enter.

Went to marsh landing adventure by acciden after the place we were looking for were all booked up for the day. I would say make sure you call and make a resurvation as we did not and by luck captain Chris squeezed us in and we were so gratefull!! Captain Chris was so great he was very noligable and found us some baby gators, big gators and even a few snakes! It was a great trip wish we would have had more time but because he squeezed us in we did not get the full hour but it was still great!! Thank you again Captain Chris YOU ROCK and my kids were so happy that you were able to take us out.

This is the second airboat tour I've taken with Marsh Landing Adventures. Today my daughter and I went on 90-minute tour. We had Captain Scott who was fun and extremely knowledgeable about the animals, birds, reptiles, flora and fauna and local regulations. There were four of us on tour and we were all quite comfortable. There was plenty of time and we were able to get quite close to the wildlife. At one alligator nest there was a mother (large) and about 38 (yes) little ones - wow! We also saw a cottonmouth snake lying in the reeds and many beautiful birds. Well worth the time and money. Am actually going again next week with a friend who is coming to visit. Can't wait!

The 2-hour airboat tour was an adventure. Captain Chris was not only knowledgeable about the gators but also about all the other wildlife and regulations and had many adventures to share with us. With only 4 on the boat we had lots of space and really skimmed over the water and marsh areas. We must have seen 25 baby gators in addition to the adults plus many birds and--yuck--snakes. Captain Chris made the tour very exciting and worthwhile.

Went on the 2 hour tour with Capt. Scott. This was our 1st adventure on an airboat and we had a blast. Capt. Scott is very knowledgeable of the marsh area and it's inhabitants. He knows where to take you to see it all. We went on February 6th 2015. We would recommend the 2 hour adventure. Thank You Capt. ScottJoe & Dawn Wyoming, Delaware

Three of us took the 2hr. Airboat ride with Captain Bill. It was well worth the time and money. Captain Bill was very interesting and got us some Gaters, big & small. His airboat was very clean and ran great, I know from being a guide myself in the past in Minnesota, that his job can be veryRepetitious. Bill made it very interesting and answered all our questions. Thanks Bill, Jack, Sharon & Jane.

Did the 1 hour tour with captain Jim & it was an amazing experience , much more than I had anticipated. Captain Jim was very knowledgeable about the Everglades & answered every question we had. This was my first time on an airboat and it was absolutely wonderful . Next time I would love to do the longer tour because the hour went by too quickly ! We saw lots of wildlife including snakes, gators and birds. I would highly recommend this tour with this company. Everyone was very friendly and made the experience very pleasant.

Terrific captain (Scott) lots of information. The temperature was so cold we were wearing winter coats, gloves, scarves, hats and almost anything else you could think of to wear! But Captain Scott kept us warm with his vast knowledge of the swamp and was I believe the only captain that day that found alligators...babies and Momma...so he was hot! We only took the 60 minute tour but we will absolutely return before we leave for home...as soon as the weather is warmer (looks like maybe the beginning of next week) we will take the 120 minute tour! Thanks, Scott and Lady Lisa (the dock and reservation checker) She was so helpful and fun to talk too! All in all...I would not hesitate to recommend this outfit!
