What a fun morning! Tyler’s presentations were not only informative but fun! You can tell he’s very comfortable around and knowledgeable about the gators (he’s been involved w gators for years). …Full review by jlafrentz

10/10 recommend. We sat in the front during the airboat ride. The driver said we were going to get soaked. And did we. It was so fun seeing this through my nieces eyes. We had other clothes to change…Full review by WhereIsJennAt

I would call the establishment or email them and asked them specifically about your situation. The boat did do spins and had water splashed on the front rows and had some in the bottom of the boat.

Not really sure you'll get more with the paying extended ride in terms of fun. They said you'll get a talk with a naturalist. If it is what you're looking fo, then go for it. In the included ride, the alligators and caimans are to be seen in the beginning. Then you go further away and experience 360 degree turns which completely drench you (especialy if you seat in the first two rows of the boat). That's a lot of fun!
I see mixed reviews from TripAdvisor for your hotel. What concerns me the most is a few people have complained about bed bugs (one person even took photos). Also there were concerns of mouse droppings and other issues. I know not all hotels/motels are perfect especially at this rate. Can you tell me if these concerns have been addressed? My husband and I work for a large newspaper. I write an article on being Frugal and this trip is how to travel the Keys on a budget. Thank you for your time. Michelle
