Had a great tour with Captain Derrick. He was knowledgeable and fun. He jumped off the boat at one point and grabbed a small gator and brought it on the boat to share with the guests, even letting those who wanted to hold it to do so safely. It was awesome to see the beauty of the bayou up close.

Captain Matt was awesome. Funny knowledgable and in total control of the boat and tour. We drove ourselves out to the location, and everything ran on time. Our entire 4 person family loved it.

We had the best tour guide! He was very knowledgeable about the land and animals. It was a great experience for my family and my daughter’s 21st birthday!! She loved it!!
