Creator's Key Takeaways

we've been sitting here for an hour now with a bunch of our new friends and we're waiting only a couple minutes passed and they called us

it's a two-hour ordeal and then we're gonna board a bus all the way around he keeps saying so it's ten to eleven and we're finally underway

the airboat ride is over was about a half an hour I think and now we're supposedly gonna see a an alligator show

YouTube Video Description

We take a tour in Ft. Lauderdale called "Airboat Ride and Flamingo Gardens". We were in Ft. Lauderdale for a day between legs of our cruise so we booked this tour from Princess for $75 US. We always wanted to ride in an airboat. You can book this tour without Flamingo Gardens for $60 US. There was an issue going through immigration and customs in Ft. Lauderdale (everyone must go through). We left on the tour 3 hours late so We think it was shortened, especially the airboat ride. Another issue we had was the airboat itself. For some reason we expected to be on a boat with 3 or 4 other passengers, not the 'airbus' they loaded us on. And the ride was only half an hour. All in all it was an OK tour. Next time We will book it directly on a smaller boat for a longer time.
