We went in January on a pretty chilly day. Dress warmer then you think you'll need, the ride is cool. Capt'n Dale was great! Knew the lake and the history of the whole area like the back of his hand...he grew up on the lake! Great tour guide! We went all over the lake to different little hideaways where we saw lots of different alligators AND some young ones. We saw a snake, some beautiful birds, and Capt'n Dale explained how all the growth (trees, shrubs, grasses, plants, flowers) all grow on "shelves" in the lake. Very cool! Also, much of Orlando used to be like this whole area. You honestly feel like you're on a different planet here. It's quiet, beautiful, and the wildlife is so cool! A very cool side trip to take when you're visiting Otlando!! You're only about 20 minutes from WWW! Take the time!
