Wooten’s Everglade Airboat & Swamp Buggy Tours

On US 41 you will find Wootens airboat and buggyrides. There is also a zoo in this litle park.

The airboat ride is not worth your time. They "fly" to the wrong side of the everglades. Do not take any tours into the salt part of Everglades. US 41 is a divider. If you take an airboat tour, take one that goes north of us 41.

The zoo is a pitty on the animals. Small cages with animals that should be out and about. The alligator pond is so full, even if the gators would want to not stack, they couldn't.

On the other side of the road are their buggy tours. A huge machine towering way over the land with a single geared engine below. At a slow pace you will have a 1 hour drive straight through the Everglades. Along the way you will pass tons of wildlife and even a rebuilt indian village.

Absolutely worth a visit.
