WHAT TO EXPECT & WHAT TO BRING 

RESERVATIONS AND TIME FRAMES

I want to first thank you for checking out INSTAGATOR AIRBOAT RIDES, as this is the most exciting venture of my life! The St. Johns River has been stomping grounds for me my entire life and it thrills me to share part of the awesome beauty of this 1300 square mile wilderness. Every season is different out here ranging from migratory birds to deer, turkeys, wild hogs, snakes, turtles and of course the star of the show, ALLIGATORS! This 15+ mile run of the St. Johns River, between Brevard County and Orange County is a “no hunt zone” for gators and home to probably the highest concentration statewide. That’s where we run our airboat rides! The beauty of this terrain is stunning and VERY remote. Shorelines are inaccessible except by boats or lease owners raising cattle. I keep a couple pounds of carrots on board to feed the “wild horses” if they feel like coming over and being friendly. (which is about every time). So welcome aboard to the airboat ride of your life!

Thank you!
