It was my first time to be in a swamp so I was a bit excited myself. It's only vaguely similar to the Swamp People show on the History Channel - no gator wrestling here - but for a quick 30-minute ride it was a good enough introduction. Menacing as he may look, the pilot was actually a nice guy, making jokes and answering questions about the wetlands.
We got to see an alligator fairly close as well as lots of waterfowl. Honestly, was a bit disappointed not to have seen bigger-sized alligators but maybe I should be thankful as the smaller ones would presumably be less aggressive. Wouldn't want any of these climbing up our little airboat.
And of course, before leaving we had to stop by the gift shop. They certainly have plenty of non-traditional souvenirs. No Birkin bags available though.
