An afternoon with a difference

[Val]

An afternoon with a difference…Take Captain Fred’s Nature and Airboat tour in Lake Wales, excellent way of seeing gators and lots of the local bird life, very informative and you can also hold baby alligators, that is you want to in the reception area. www.captfreds.com Tel: 863-696-1637

After visiting Captain Fred’s you could always go for a meal to Cherry Pockets Fish and Steak shak. Now this is by no means luxury dining, but the food is excellent and there is music on Friday and Saturday evening round the outside bar. This is very much a local’s restaurant but we love the food and the atmosphere. 3100 Canal Road. Lake Wales. 33898. Tel: 863-439-2031. www.cherrypocket.com

Can't find any info on prices, can you advise please.

Will have to try that when we are next out. It doesn't seem so far to travel as some of the airboat rides.

Have just looked at the website given by Val and if you then click on "Our Menu" it gives you the menu plus prices.

[BIGEYE]

Didi you mean that you booked by calling them, as I can't find where you can book online. What are the prices like?

[Val]

Hi,
Not 100% sure of the price but have a feeling it is approx $25 a person but a quick phone call when in Florida will confirm prices and then you can decide. The airboat trip takes a good hour and is great fun and so interesting. Would not think you can book on-line as sometimes it depends on the weather whether you can take the trip or not so booking is made by phone, this is not a large concern but I would think just a small family concern.
