I've never had more fun at an adult field trip before. I felt like a kid again -- only this time paying attention. But seriously from start to finish 8 to 5pm I enjoyed myself so much and learning more about the Seminole tribe. If you are a history buff like me, or want to know more about the Everglades and native lands this is it for you. I wouldn't recommend if you have toddlers and below because I know my niece gets antsy after a full day but there really is entertainment for everyone. The airboat was awesome, saw about 10 gators! The wildlife shows and then the museum--their staff is A+. They are so knowledgeable I really am glad I came and can't wait to bring family from out of town. They are a little further out than other tour groups but well worth it to get the bang for the buck. Their customs are beautiful and im so happy I got to learn all that I did . They are way beyond casinos and duty free tobacco. The husband and wife tour guide duo (I forget their names) were excellent. So many cool items at the gift shop too. If you're debating don't hesitate to come here!
We had a great time today at Billie Swamp Safari. When we first arrived, we were told that the boats and buggies may not go out due to thunder and lightning in the area so we visited all the exhibits. So much to see and do, even without the boat rides. We fed alligators and crocodiles along with otters and parakeets. See my pictures and you will see all that they had to offer. The weather cleared out while visiting the facilities and we went out on an air boat ride. Great staff and a great time to be had. Two thumbs up.
A few women and I went today and were very impressed. The airboat ride lasted about 1/2 hour and the guide was informative and engaging. The swamp buggy ride was almost an hour and couldn't have been better. The guide had been there for many years and was full of information. A few times he got off the buggy to get leaves and and fruit for us to smell and look at. The critter show was also terrific. We thoroughly enjoyed our day and will be back soon.
We had a fun day! We went on the air boat and the vehicle that drove us through water to see lots of a animals and birds plus our driver gave us some interesting history of the area. Then we had a good lunch and toured the grounds where we saw wide variety of animals...too many to list. We also got a lesson about snakes. Highly recommend to spend a fun day there...be sure to bring the kids!
beautiful scenery. clean and entertaining.
Second visit even better. Armando was really nice in the boat ride, thrill ride and tour in one, best so far. The bungee ride was really good, lots of things I've not seen in a long time, other I've never see in the wild. Lots of nice pictures.
This is definitely a hidden gem. Excellent place to walk around and do buggy or air boat rides. Nowhere close to the actual Everglades experience, but this is a different league in itself.
I did the one hour buggy ride (VFM at 25 bucks) and was thoroughly impressed with the service and the guide / driver. The walk around later around the property was fun too, with a few animals on display.
Must do if you are around this side.
Brought the family and the staff here is awesome, knowledgeable and friendly. The airboat ride was about 30 mins, short but sweet. The snake show was captivating and we learned something. We fed some animals and others were great to see. I would def come back.
I took my daughter there for her birthday. Just to get away and feel secluded. I was really impressed with the amount of animals and Wildlife they have there. They had a nice nature walk and it was very secluded. It was a wonderful day with the kids. It was quite the drive to get there but well worth it. The food is very reasonably priced and delicious. And the only other thing you have to pay for is the Airboat Rides or buggy rides which I believe is only about $20 and they have a cute little gift shop with plenti to choose from. What a nice day getaway.
