I compared the Everglades airboat tours that run from Fort Lauderdale, both hotel-pickup packages and drive-yourself parks about 30 minutes west. Airboats skim water too shallow for a normal outboard, which is how you reach the sawgrass where alligators actually live. Good captains keep a respectful gap; feeding wild gators is illegal in Florida.
