How did he spot that gator??? - This was a fun ride at night and we couldn’t believe how Captain Disco spotted gators in the dark from hundreds of yards away with his spotlight. He was full of great gator facts. Would definitely suggest this tour with Captain Disco!

We ended up seeing two gators toward the end of the tour but the captain had spotted more, they just swam away before we got to them. Definitely would recommend.

Awesome way to see the Everglades - If you're looking for an exciting way to see some gators, this excursion is for you. It was a beautiful hour out on the water. We saw 8-10 gators up close. Captain Disco made our adventure even more fun with his personality. 10/10 would do again.
