    Sorry you didn't enjoy yourself, we were there at the end of July and had a fantastic time. I admit we thought we may have been able to eat here but next time we'll remember to pack a picnic.

    we thoroughly enjoyed it been twice now and have enjoyed both times!! but i guess each to our own taste.... we enjoy the boat ride.... the spectacular views..... must admit the last trip was a very informative one.... we were told loads of stuff and shown many different things including a big croc which had her babies just the day before so we caught a glimpse of them also....

    Just to let you know there are two Boggy Creek air boat rides. We have done the one near to Poinciana and have to say the reception area here was big, clean and spacious.
    We personally did not enjoy the ride too much as the driver went far to fast and it was a bit like a rollercoaster ride at a theme park. However i do know lots of other people who have had a great time.

    Mum loves Boggy Creek and we've seen an amazing amount of wildlife there on our many trips. The drivers are very knowledgeable and will stop and give info and answer any questions about things to be seen.

    Mum especially likes going fast - the faster the better - so she's an 87 year old thrill seeker! [msnsmile2]

    I love Boggy Creek, and my son always insists on going.

    Its a great day out, and is an easy way to experience the real, natural Florida, without getting your feet too dirty!

    I am sorry that your day wasn't what you were expecting, though.

    We went to the one at top of poinciana last year, had a fab time, was different from everything else you see and do in orlando, must admit would have been quite boring if we didnt see any crocs or other animals but we were quite lucky, we even took 7 and 4 year old they had a fab time too, especially at the end when the skipper let them sit up top next to massive fan!!

    We loved boggy creek. Our boat broke down and we had to be 'rescued'. This just added to the experiance. I loved going fast and I don't like rollercoasters but it felt completely different to that. Have a great pic of our youngest with her ear defenders on!

    We love Boggy Creek also, we were there 2 weeks ago and took a private tour.
    wayne our captain knew where to go, we saw aligators and babys (probably the ones Liesa saw hatch),eagles,a hawk,numerous herons etc and to make our day special we found a river otter playing on a bank.
