About Peace River Airboat Tours & Charters

Peace River Airboat Tours & Charters operates airboats, swamp buggy rides, and horseback tours on the Peace River in Arcadia, Florida. Visitors board 450-horsepower airboats with elevated cushioned seats for six, equipped with state-of-the-art safety jackets and ear protection. The small, maneuverable vessels take passengers on fifty-minute rides across the river. Swamp buggy tours feature twelve-foot-elevated off-road vehicles with huge tires that traverse thick mud, uneven terrain, brush, and shallow water passages through Florida hammocks. Experienced guides lead personal, one-on-one experiences explaining the landscape and wildlife. The facility also offers horseback riding adventures, canoeing, kayaking, fishing excursions, overnight camping with rustic cookouts, and private charters. A country store and interactive wildlife attractions are on-site, including the opportunity to hold a baby gator and see Dale, the largest alligator in southwest Florida. Tickets are sold online through the venue's website.
