Premium Private Family Airboat Tours in Miami

An Everglades outing with your own group

Explore the River of Grass together with a captain and a private tour for your family. Look for wildlife, enjoy the scenery, and ask questions about the landscape as you go. Every outing is different, and sightings depend on natural conditions.

Choose your tour length

Daytime private airboat tours start at $250 for one hour, $350 for 1.5 hours, or $450 for two hours. These starting prices include the first two guests. Additional guests are $60 each, and children 5 and under ride free on all tours.

Tell us all guests' ages and your group size when booking. This helps us confirm capacity and discuss the right option for your family. Kids 5 and under ride free on all tours.

Prepare for your visit

Your airboat meeting point is 5334 FL-90, Miami, FL 33185. See directions and pickup options before leaving. There's no age limit, and our ear protection fits all sizes. Wheelchairs can be accommodated; please tell us before your trip.

Ask what clothing and personal items are suitable for your departure. Bring your questions and let us know if this is your family's first airboat ride. We can discuss tour length and timing around your travel plans.

Optional hotel or airport pickup

Private transportation is $400 round trip for up to 13 guests, with a minimum of 4 guests and a tour of at least 1.5 hours. Most of our boats hold 6–7 guests, so tell us your full group size and we'll plan enough boats. For groups larger than 7, the booking system lets you add more boats. Need help with your reservation?

Family tour questions

Is an airboat ride OK for toddlers and young kids?

Yes. There's no age limit, and our ear protection fits all sizes, from little kids to grandparents. Kids 5 and under ride free on all tours. Tell us each child's age when you book so we can plan seating. Bring a hat that stays on and sun protection for little ones.

How long a tour should we book with kids?

For young kids, 1 hour is usually the sweet spot: long enough for gators and birds, short enough to keep everyone happy. Families with older kids who love wildlife often enjoy 1.5 or 2 hours. If you want our private transport, you'll need at least the 1.5-hour tour and four or more guests.

Can grandparents or someone in a wheelchair come?

Yes. We can accommodate wheelchairs, but please tell us before your trip so we can plan boarding and seating. Let us know about anyone else who has trouble with steps, balance or getting in and out of a boat, too. Flip-flops are fine, though shoes with some grip can help anyone who's unsteady on their feet.

What will the kids learn on the tour?

Plenty. Your captain is a local Gladesman who grew up here, and kids love asking about alligators, birds and how an airboat works. They'll see how the River of Grass changes with water and seasons. Encourage them to ask questions; on a private boat there's no one else waiting.
