Itineraries at Wild Florida include day tours, sunset tours and night time tours, which visitors of all ages are certain to love. Glide through Florida’s protected network of swamps, marshes and rivers in an expansive 100,000 acres of pristine wetlands, within a unique habitat you won’t find anywhere else on the planet. Wild Florida’s airboat rides are the perfect mode of transport to pass effortlessly through this rugged landscape. We guarantee you will see no signs of human life or developments here, instead a reflection of what all of Florida would have looked like 1,000 years ago.
