I would highly recommend!!
Captain Chris was extremely knowledgeable & very friendly!! We saw lots of wildlife ~ including alligators. The scenery is beautiful and the entire experience is very peaceful. One thing I would recommend is including to meet at the marina in the directions. We were a little confused about where to go when we first got there.

Had a relaxing wildlife tour, the Captain Chris was knowledgeable and entertaining. He brought us every opportunity to see the wildlife on the lake. We had a great time.

We saw a bunch of different birds. Some fish and a couple alligators. Captain Casey and Meredith were both very informative about the wildlife and history of the area

It might be a part of Everglades but don’t be fooled. We just took a short ride around the lake, saw some birds, nothing special and eagles from very far away. No gators up close.
Captain was very friendly and knowledgeably though.
William_H, Apr 2026
Fun, relaxing boat trip with knowledgeable guides. You will see a lot of interesting birds, and a few gators. However, you do not actually get into the Everglades, only to the headwaters, and there is always civilization in view.

All the people we dealt with were great! Very friendly and knowledgable. It was a nice alternative to the crazy theme parks! We saw several gators and all the birds were amazing! And you can’t beat the cool breeze on the water!

Unfortunately, I had no idea. My reservation was canceled until I got there and paid for an Uber. The lady from the tour group called me yesterday and advised that my tour would be moved up to 930 versus 1130. I get there at 9:30 and they told me it was canceled.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Hi Sonia
We are very sorry for the inconvenience and frustrations this caused. At the time of our call, we did mention to you there was a possibility of cancellation due to weather conditions, as safety on the water is always our top priority. We did also send a cancellation email the day prior to your tour to keep you informed.
A full refund was issued, and we truly regret that your plans were impacted-especially after making the trip out.
If you're ever in the area we would love the opportunity to take you out and give you the experience you were hoping for.

The tour was very informative. However there were people in the group who kept talking. The tour director was great though.
Response from Host, Apr 2026

Absolutely a great time!!! Even though it was cold, we got to see alot of wildlife and as many gators as possible.
Lisa_M, Mar 2026
This was a really great boat ride, with a very informative captain and we saw so much vegetation, birds and alligators. Also loved that the boat had open sides and a roof over it to protect you from the sun.
Lynne_P, Mar 2026
The weather and the time of day were perfect for this experience. Captain Mike was opened to sharing his knowledge, compassion and enthusiasm about the Everglades, it's inhabitants and environment.
Stephanie_S, Mar 2026
This boat ride takes you around Lake Toho. You will see lots of birds, vegetation and some alligators! Very relaxing trip in the midst of the Orlando metro congestion. Captain Chris is awesome and knows lots of facts and info about the area.
Joan_P, Mar 2026
Captain Chris was very informative. It was well worth the money! I would definitely go again. Thanks Captain Chris
Mag_S, Mar 2026
We had Chris as our tour guide, he started off by disrespecting us because we are from California and he made jokes about transgenders. Also, we hardly saw gators and he was not very good at slowing down and showing us the small gators we came across. Also, the tour said free water bottle but he told us we had to buy it. He told lots of tall stories and about his wife catching the biggest gator. Not recommended.
Response from Host, Mar 2026
Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry experience did not meet your expectations.
Our tours are designed to showcase the natural wildlife and beauty of Lake Toho. Because this tour is based on the natural ecosystem, wildlife sightings it is upto the animals to make themselves present. Due to weather conditions, It is not always an option to slow or stop depending on the wind and water levels. Our captains due their best to accommodate when at all possible.
We welcome visitors from all over the world and strive to make every guest feel comfortable. Our guides share stories and information about the lake, fishing history and local wildlife to make the experience educational. We will continue to use this and all feedback to better our program.
Thank you

Very knowledgeable captain especially when it came to alligators. He was willing to answer questions. My husband, an avid birder, also added two life birds to his list so he was thrilled.
Shane_P, Feb 2026
Captain Chris was awesome! He knows the gators by name, and even the area to find them. He was a great tour guide and very knowledgeable and could answer every question he was asked during the tour.

Captain Chris makes biology and ecology FUN. We were looking forward to the boat ride but it was even better than we thought it would be. Restaurant and restrooms very clean.

Chris and wife are very pleasant.
We learned a lot from captain Chris.
I want to see the Everglades in real time and captain Chris didn’t disappoint us, wildlife in the Everglades is a must see! Highly recommend if you are going to Disney world.
