Mobile Anybody can recommend a airboat ride with transpirt

No car this time around but fancy doing an airboat ride not too far. Can you recommend a company that is cheapish and provide transport to the site?

Thanks

We booked through Attraction Tickets Direct who will pick up from various locations.

It was a couple of years ago so I can't remember all of the locations but it's worth a look on their website to see.

Where are you staying.
Although it's not what you want I'd book an uber to take you to Spirit of the Swamp...for me by far the best

I may be wrong but have a feeling they are all in the same area. Just googled directions and Spirit of the Swamp is about 30 minutes away and Boggy Creek about 40 mins but same direction...there is also Wild Florida which has a bit of a wildlife park too.

I’ll look at the Spirit of the swamp with an Uber.

The only year we don’t take a car I’m looking at loads of stuff further afield 🤔🤔🤔

Ha ha, uaually the case...of course you may get a good deal on a car for a few days if thats the case..check Andy at Florida Discount Car Hire.

Re the airboat, we were advised to get an early morning one as there is more activity plus less chance of rain...

We did the 90 minute one...but they also took us to Shingle Creek which is superb and well worth paying more for

You know what I’m weirdly quite looking forward to not having to drive tbh however I keep on finding stuff further away from where we are staying to do. My hubby said to consider the Uber like if it was our car and not think about the money as a car would have cost anyway. If we spend £40 in Uber a day ( which I v much doubt we will) we would break even with the cost of a car.
