"It was worth every cent. The grounds are amazing as well as the staff. My daughter got to hold a baby alligator while the handler explained all about the alligator. She was ecstatic! The staff were simply amazing to Amara. They took their time with her which reduced both our anxiety. We also took the airboat-saw plenty of alligators, although the guide said he couldn't make any promises. There was an older gentleman who had a difficult time getting off the boat-staff were already at the pier when we docked, ready to assist him. It was great day!"
