This monstrous all terrain vehicle is one of a kind and custom built to take nature lovers through a genuine 8,000 acre working cattle ranch into the wilderness. This off-road journey will take you to explore the "REAL Florida".

Each venture is a unique tour and will take you on a quest viewing wildlife roaming free. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to see wild turkeys strutting, wild hogs rutting, deer grazing, bald eagles soaring, and many, many exotic birds, turtles, raccoons, cows, the list goes on and on. The guides are from local families that are knowledgeable about not only the animals but the history of the land. The land that we travel over is very historic to Kissimmee. It is one of the pioneer cattle families that was here before any attractions, hotels or tourists came here. If you are lucky you may see the cowboys round up the cattle twice a year.

Safety Info

When choosing an airboat tour for your family or group, remember that safety is as important to us as customer service. Please look over the following safety information before making your choice of what airboat company to use.

Q. What type of license does the captain have? OUPV License are only allowed to have 6 passengers or less on the airboat. Guide license holder does not have to have U.S. Coast Guard inspected vessels.

Master Captains License allows operator to drive uninspected as well as inspected U.S. Coast Guard vessels. This is required for any captains taking more than 6 paying passengers.

Q. Are all the captains Master Captains? Some airboat companies use the owners Master Captains license as an umbrella for all captains. Ask for the Master Captains License for YOUR driver to make sure that they are inspected and certified.

Q. Are ALL boats U.S. Coast Guard Inspected and Certified? Just because the boats are made by a U.S. Coast Guard manufacturer doesn't mean they are inspected and certified by the Coast Guard. (All U.S. Coast Guard approved boats have a certificate of inspection on board) Also make sure all boats are individually insured.

Q. What is the capacity of the boat? Make sure you know the capacity of the boat and never exceed the approved limit of passengers. Boats carrying over 6 passengers MUST have

ALL of the following: 1. Airboats MUST have a Certicate of Inspection with all the mandatory safety equiptment on board at all times.

2. Drivers MUST be on a drug consortium.- They will have both pre-hire and random drug testing.

3. Drivers MUST be a U.S. Coast Guard Master Captain not have a Coast Guard Guide License.

Q. Does the airboat captain feed the wild alligators? Not only is this illegal, but feeding wild alligators makes them lose their natural fear of humans and very dangerous.

The state of Florida does not require: having insurance on boats or the captains, ADA accessibility or tour guides to have background checks. Please ask for proof of these before you choose your airboat tour company. Remember, having a U.S. Coast Guard Guide License (license for 6 passengers or under) IS NOT the same as having a Master Captain License.
