Yes, you do need to make a reservation in advance on Spirit of the Swamp Airboat Rides… the only way we can offer you and your family a PRIVATE airboat ride is to make an advance reservation so that you can have the airboat all to yourselves.
Our small, 6 passenger boat is the number one reason passengers choose Spirit of the Swamp Airboat Rides. Most people, (when they realize they have a choice) just don’t want to be on a large air boat with 20 other people. They tell us “What if we get stuck in the middle of the boat? We won’t be able to see anything!”
Our passengers LOVE having the boat all to themselves, and at the same price (or less!) than non-private airboat rides. So please call us in advance for a reservation, we don’t want anyone to be disappointed!
