There’s no better way to see the Florida Everglades than by taking an airboat ride. Safe, exhilarating and fun for all the family, an airboat tour brings you face to face with some of the most beautiful wetland scenery to be found in the USA, as well as colorful wildlife. An airboat tour also gives you the opportunity to come face to face with Florida’s most famous residents – the alligators for which the state is justly famous.

The Everglades are one of America’s last great wildernesses – a fascinating and diverse ecosystem that remains surprisingly unspoilt. Despite the best efforts of Man to encroach on their territory, these wetlands are home to some of the most unusual and exotic bird and animal life to be found anywhere in North America, and there’s no better way to see them than on an airboat ride.

Birdlife in the Everglades is particularly rich and diverse, from herons and egrets to cranes and ospreys. But it’s perhaps for the gators that the Everglades are best known, and an airboat tour won’t disappoint you on this score. Our airboat rides are conducted by experienced captains who grew up in the waterways of the Everglades, so they know just where to take you to see the best that this wondrous natural habitat has to offer.

Our airboat rides are comfortable and exciting, and the boats themselves are made to the highest standards. An airboat tour is really a great way to see the wetlands of the Everglades. Indeed, after the alligators themselves, airboats are probably one of Florida’s most famous sights! But an airboat tour isn’t just a thrill ride – our mission is also one of education and conservation. On a Cypress Airboats ride, you’ll learn about the fragile and unique ecosystem that sustains the wildlife of the Everglades, and hopefully come away with a renewed sense of how precious these wetlands are to our country’s ecology. Cypress Airboats is committed to protecting the environment of the Everglades, and so our airboat rides keep to designated waterways and operate at all times with safety in mind – the safety not just of our guests but also the residents of these ancient wetlands and rivers.

Cypress Airboats operates out of two locations, Cypress Airboats North and South. Both are easily accessible by road, and detailed directions on how to find us are available by calling (561)798-2884. Both our North and South Sites have ample parking and other facilities.

Airboat safety is one of our top concerns, and we’re glad to be able to assure you that airboat rides are absolutely safe for all members of the family. Our airboats are inspected daily and conform to all applicable safety statutes. In addition, we take pains to ensure that all boats are equipped with first aid kits, flotation devices and communications systems, so in the unlikely event of any mishap there would be no cause for concern.

All of our captains have USCG certification and are local to the Everglades, so they know these complex waterways like the back of their hands, and you couldn’t be in better ones.

You’ll find that an airboat tour is cheaper than you think - and offers unbeatable value for money for thrill-seekers looking for an exciting way to see the Everglades and a bit of local wildlife. Children between 6 and 12 ride half price, and children under 6 ride for free – so it’s a great way to organize a family outing, as well. In fact, kids of all ages are sure to be enthralled by the airboat ride! You’ll find that an airboat tour with Cypress Airboats is something you’ll never forget.t.
