The quickest 45 minutes that went by...the saying is "time flies when you're having fun". Being that close to the alligator's in their natural enviroment is a RUSH! Saw a total of five and they were so close to view and photo if you want. They take you to their little island and if you're a animal lover you'll like... More

We visited Buffalo Tiger's in June 11, 2013. I have been living in Miami for 20 years and never before had done an air boat ride, so I wanted to choose a more "authentic" experience that included a nice air boat ride, not just a boring ride. Well, this was a lot of fun. It was the perfect time, around... More

Amazing, a bit further to travel but well worth it. A unique experience. Our friends have previously done a more commercial everglades airboat excursion and say this is by far and above the best. It is very informative and the guide talks about all the wild life not only the alligators. We saw numerous alligators up close. Our guide Eric... More

A little pricey at $27.50 per person for a 45-minute ride but that time frame is adequate to see what the Everglades has to offer. It was $20 when I visited back in Feb 2011. This is the real deal and your visit to Florida is not complete without a trip out to the Everglades. I haven't been to any... More

We visited Bufalo Tigers on 9th May 13 and were not dissappointed. Seen plenty of aligators, herons, eagles, birds and a whole host of raccoons. The guide Eric really knew his stuff and made the trip entertaining as well as informative, lets face it anybody who pulls an aligator partly out of the water by its bottom jaw has to... More

Very nice experience with Buffalo Tiger Airboat tour. The company is owned by natives, Miccosukee tribe, they know very well the evergaldes environment and wildlife. The tour was long enough, around 45 minutes and our guide, M. Red Wind, was very nice and cool always giving us good explanation on alligators and wildlife. We saw lot of alligators, babies, male...

I stopped by on my way out of the Everglades after a Boy Scour excursion. This experienced topped the scouts as far as we were both concerned. My son loved it and soaked in all the information provided by our guide. An overall good value. You get a 45 minute tour and an overall experience gliding over the Everglades on... More

We finally did it - an opportunity not to be missed. From all the reviews we chose this one and are so happy we did. Just my husband, me, a couple from Oz & Eric the guide. An almost "private tour." We were greeted at the dock by three large alligators, my first up close encounter and then once out... More

This was a wonderful hour and a half. Our guide, Fabian, was soft spoken and dignified as he discussed the Native American heritage that he is trying to maintain in the park. He was very helpful and safety conscious. He also was able to find us numerous photo opportunities, up close and personal with alligators of all sizes. He also... More

Consistent with the other reviews, this is a must-do adventure! My husband and I were in Miami to visit our son, whose coworkers strongly recommended Buffalo Tigers. A straightforward 45 minutes’ drive from the city, it is well worth the few extra miles/minutes past the other companies offering the same service. Buffalo Tigers is run by the Miccosukee Indians and... More
