Hello everybody,
We've been looking into doing a airboat ride with our two children (DD 7, DS 5) whilst in the area.
Does anybody have any experience with these?
So far we've looked at the web pages for Boggy Creek (looks like there will be so many people on board that it wont really be worth it) - Has anyone done a trip with them?
We've also looked at a couple of smaller independent airboat operators up on the St. John's river which is about an hour outside of Orlando. Two different guys who call themselves Captain John and Captain Bob respectively. (I know, I know, we tittered too).
Finally, there is an operator in Kissimee who lets you drive the boats yourself. Whilst Mr. Fozzie thinks this would be the best thing since sliced bread, we're worried that the area is so built up around there that there wont be anything to see in terms of wildlife.
Can anybody offer any feedback on any of these operators? Perhaps you've done a great trip yourself around the Orlando area.
Any help would be appreciated.
Mr. and Mrs. Fozzie
