Private Group Airboat Tours Near Miami

Planning a group airboat tour in Miami? With Airboat Adventures Everglades, your group gets its own private boats and U.S. Coast Guard licensed captains, with no strangers added. Tours start at $200 for two guests and run 1, 1.5, 2 or 3 hours from our dock at 5334 FL-90, just west of Miami. Kids 5 and under ride free.

How group boat arrangements work

Most of our boats seat seven people, and we confirm your exact boat assignment when you book. Every guest counts toward that limit, including kids 5 and under who ride free.

  • 8–14 guests: two boats
  • 15–21 guests: three boats
  • 22–28 guests: four boats
  • Larger groups: call us and we'll work out boats and pricing together.

When enough boats are available, your whole group departs at the same time. Larger groups should book ahead so we can reserve the boats you need and confirm a coordinated departure.

How group pricing works

Your group airboat tour price has three parts:

  1. Base tour price for two guests: 1 hour $200, 1.5 hours $275, 2 hours $375, 3 hours $575.
  2. $60 for each additional paying guest. Kids 5 and under ride free but still take a seat.
  3. Additional-boat charges: each boat beyond the first adds $100 per half-hour ($200 per hour).

Example: 8 guests on a 1-hour tour is $200 + (6 × $60) + $200 for the second boat, or $760 total.

Additional-boat charges only—not total tour prices.

Group tours for every occasion

Private boats are a great fit for family reunions, friends' trips, school and club outings, church groups and first-time visitors who want the Everglades without a crowd. Your captain sets the pace, stops for wildlife and answers questions along the way. Planning with kids? See our family airboat tours.

Celebrate a birthday on the River of Grass with your own boats and captains. Please leave decorations and unnecessary loose items behind. We don't allow items that could blow off the boat or be left behind in the Everglades.
