spiders and gators and racoons oh my
We went early so it wouldn't be too hot. The tour guide was quite personable and knowledgeable. The boat was steady. I did not feel like danger was lurking at any time. They take good care of you and get right up to the alligators, racoons, big black grasshoppers, and show you spiders living in trees that would scare the snot out of you if you were too close. lol. Fabulous tour quite enjoyed it and the guide.

Steve Irwin of Louisiana
We lucked out because our first tour booked on this app canceled on us the morning of, took a last-minute booking on the 4:15 large airboat. Looks like a massive storm was rolling in, guide Bobby M says not to worry boy was he right. It sprinkled for 60 seconds and then we were the only people on the Bayou. Overcast with no punishing sun scorching us!And our first stop this guy walks a gator out of the water and get it to pose with its mouth open like a pet dog, then lets my kids throw snacks to this 10 ft gator while it snaps them up. Then we go to the most picture spot in Louisiana, and he’s calling for another animal, a raccoon appears from the woods and takes a marshmallow literally from his mouth. We move forward as the trees cave over the waterway with Spanish moss hanging down in a scene fit to be framed and hung over your fire place. Saw more gators and wild life than we could count, towards the end a few sprays of water from the boat, so had to change our shirts.Bobby M was super friendly and knowledgeable, quite possibly the best excursion we’ve been on during our 41 state adventure!

Highly recommend! Great fun amongst nature
Truly the best way to spend a birthday! Our guide was funny and attentive. He made sure he circled the airboat around the gators so everyone could see without obstruction. The journey was a great duration so we got to experience all the wonderful scenery and animals of the Louisiana swamp.

Amazing Swap Tour
We found the whole experience absolutely awesome! Started with Gerald (bus driver) who was friendly & a pleasure to talk with - gave plenty of recommendations for the city. Bebop (airboat captain) showed the group a great time- seen several alligators, educating about swap & even held a little gator (Frankie). Even the store lady (sorry don’t recall her name) was welcoming & super funny and quite a character herself. Tour is worth the price.
