Spirit of the Swamp Airboat Tours

I received this email and some photos from Sue.  Sue and I talked a bit about her son’s disabilities and I explained to her that because our trips are private, Captain Harold would make sure to customize the trip to fit her family.  If anyone with a disability needs more time, more care, or more attention, we’re here to provide that!  Here’s Sue’s email and photos:

Just wanted to thank you for the fantastic experience we had on your airboat tour.  Our autistic son loved it - Captain Harold was brilliant with him and so knowledgeable about the wildlife we saw.  Definitely a must do for next time!

Please find attached some of our pictures.  We had a great time and George still talks about the alligators we saw!

It’s been a while since I’ve shared some of our newest airboat ride Trip Advisor reviews with you… so here you go! 

We have just returned from our 1st trip to Orlando and the boat trip out with ‘Spirit of the Swamp’ was one of the highlights for our whole family, inlcuding kids of 14 and 6.

Debi helped me in the planning of the trip, making sure we knew exactly where we were going to meet the boat by sending directions from our holiday villa to the location.

Captain Harold was a great host making sure we were all comfortable and feeling safe on the boat which only sits 6 so you can guarantee a personal tour. We paid for an hour tour but were out for more like 90 minutes seeing some fantastic parts of the ’swamp’ that I’m sure larger boats wouldn’t be able to get to.

Whilst out Captain Harold pointed out alligators, a bald eagle and various other birds. He also told us a bit about the history of the area which helped us understand some of the local place names.

I can’t recommend this trip highly enough and the price for such a personal tour was very reasonable. We will be doing it again next time we visit the area.

I recieved some new photos and a email that I wanted to share with you:

I hope all is well, we are back in the UK and feeling the cold.  We do miss the Florida warmth, both climate and the welcome.

I have attached some photo’s if they are any use to you. 

Special treat for us was to see a bald eagle not attached to an arm and if that wasnt enough we were also lucky to see a snail kite feeding.

All on a well maintained safe airboat.

Ticked all the boxes for this family…….. If anyone has any reservations about using this company feel free to message me.    

I am still getting people contacting me on the Dibb for more info on our experience so there is alot of interest in your company.

I will keep an eye on your website and look forward to our next trip to Florida - there is no question about coming for another ride we will be there.

Take care and chat soon
