One Hour Airboat Eco Tour

Airboat Rides at MIDWAY delivers consistently excellent wildlife experiences with captains who know how to entertain and educate. Guests regularly spot alligators (often 20+ per trip), bald eagles, snakes, and various birds while learning about the river ecosystem and local history. The captains get plenty of shout-outs by name—Ken, Alex, Sammy, Sam, and Tony all receive praise for being knowledgeable, funny, and making guests feel safe throughout the rides. What stands out is how many visitors return trip after trip, even making it a tradition whenever they have out-of-town guests. The tours offer good value with one-hour options that pack in plenty of wildlife viewing, and many guests mention getting to hold a baby gator as part of the experience. The operation runs on time and creates memorable adventures for both first-timers and seasoned airboat riders. It's the kind of authentic Florida activity that lives up to expectations and keeps people coming back.
