For those of you who've used spirit of the swamp what capacity do their boats have? We're a family of six so wondered if they'd be able to fit us.

Thanks

We like Boggy Creek - been there a few times now.

We were a family of 5 and there was room for 1 more. Their website will tell you. Excellent service from Captain Harold and Debbie.

That's great thank you. I did look at their website and their facebook page but only saw that it said seating for 6 but didn't say if that included the captain or not.

Spirit of the swamp is really good. They seat 6 guests. We were a family of 4 and had the airboat to ourselves.

I would recommend either Spirit of the Swamp or Kissimmee Swamp Tours. Both have 6 seat boats.
In 2017 May and Oct did the 90 minute tour at Kissimmee Swamp Tours. Both times saw lots of gators including half a dozen baby ones. The longer tour is better, as you won't want it to stop. They are on Lake Kissimmee which is a bit further out, so more natural - you won't see any buildings. The people who run it are very friendly - they even phone you whilst you are on the way to check you are ok and not lost!

We did one at Wild Florida a couple of years ago. Loved it and they also have an animal park to lok around too, all included in the price ... a nice few hours away from it all.
