We are thinking of doing an air boat ride for something a little different has anyone done this, is it suitable for a dd3, and how many people does an airboat hold?

We are looking at doing one this time too and we have looked on the Boggy Creek website - it has maps, prices etc etc

The ones we went on right down the end of Poinciana Boulevard at Southport , the big ones held about 12-15 people or you could hire a smaller one with just 6 seats and you get a longer ride.

hope this helps

we done it last year on the everglades on our way to miami, it was a very exciting once in a lifetime experiance, only thing to spoil it a little was it rained the whole time on the airboat then stopped as we got off.

We love airboat rides. They are really good fun, a great experience. We go to the East Lake Fish Camp location at Boggy Creek and there`s always been plenty of wildlife to see, including `gators. Have a look at the official website www.bcairboats.com :-)

We used Big Toho (http://www.bigtohoairboatrides.com/) and our son was 4 when we were there last year. They made non swimmers and kids wear life jackets. Our party of 6 was all that was on the airboat. We loved it!

Done the one at Boggy Creek last time going to do the private air boat ride this time as it lasts a bit longer than the normal one and it is only us on the boat :grin:

We did BC at Southport this Easter, great trip, saw gators, different birds and a Bald Eagle. Only about $20+tax each v.good value.

Should be fine with your 3 year old as long as she is up for it. First time we rode Boggy Creek a woman had a baby with her.
The rides are rather smooth believe it or not and ear protectors are available for those who dont like a bit of engine noise. I personally dont find it that loud TBH.
