Frequently Asked Questions
What should I wear for an airboat ride in New Orleans?
For your comfort and safety, we recommend wearing casual, comfortable clothing and closed-toe shoes. Since airboats can get a little wet, it's best to dress in clothes that you don't mind getting a bit dirty. We also suggest wearing sunglasses and sunscreen to protect yourself from the sun. Depending on the weather, you may want to bring a light jacket or a hat to stay comfortable.
How long is the airboat ride, and what can I expect during the tour?
Our airboat rides typically last between 1 hour and 2 hours, depending on the tour package you choose. During the ride, you’ll be taken through scenic swamps, bayous, and marshlands where you'll encounter local wildlife, including alligators, birds, and fish. Our experienced captains will also share interesting facts about the area’s ecosystem, history, and culture, making this an educational and exciting experience.
Is it safe to ride an airboat?
Absolutely! Safety is our top priority. Our airboats are well-maintained and equipped with the latest safety features. Our experienced captains are fully trained and knowledgeable in handling the airboats and navigating the swamps. We also provide life jackets for all guests, and we follow strict safety guidelines to ensure that everyone has a safe and enjoyable time.
Do I need to make a reservation in advance?
While we welcome walk-ins, we highly recommend making a reservation in advance to guarantee your spot, especially during busy seasons or weekends. You can easily book your tour online or by calling us directly. We want to make sure you have the best experience possible, and reservations help us accommodate everyone efficiently.
Can I bring my camera or phone on the airboat ride?
Yes, definitely! We encourage you to bring your camera, phone, or GoPro to capture the incredible wildlife and breathtaking landscapes. Keep in mind that our airboats can get wet, so we recommend using waterproof gear or a ziplock bag to protect your electronics.
