About Your Trip

Welcome to our exciting Florida alligator hunting experience. This is a guaranteed, private land alligator hunting experience - you will harvest an alligator between 6’ and 7’11”. This experience is perfect for hunters of all skill levels, ages and abilities.

Each alligator hunting experience includes your Alligator Tag, all necessary equipment, guide, sports drinks, water, soda, and snacks. The only thing you will need is a valid license ($52) upon arrival. We will give you the specific information regarding the type of license upon booking.

Alligators can be skinned for an additional fee of $45 per foot. If you would like taxidermy or processing of your meat we can arrange for transport of your hide or meat to a third party.

Our alligator hunting experiences take place from land using fishing rods with weighted treble hooks. You will sight fish in multiple farm ponds, ditches, or drainage canals for an alligator in your size range, then snag and fight the alligator to shore. If the alligator is in the size range you are looking for you will then shoot it in the appropriate area behind the head. If the alligator is not in the size range you are looking for, we will unhook it and safely release it back into the water and target another alligator. On a typical day a client can expect to see between 5 and 25 alligators of varying sizes. This is a 100% guaranteed hunting experience. You will harvest an alligator in your size category.

First Time Booking with Us?

Captain Experiences is home to thousands of quality, vetted fishing, hunting, and other outdoor sports guides across the US and beyond. Our mission is to Unlock the Outdoors by making it quick and easy to book the trip of a lifetime every time with our Damn Good Guides.

We vet our guides and only partner with the best of the best. Our guides do their very best to keep you safe, show you a great time, and send you home with a memorable experience shared with family and friends.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

In the event of inclement weather, our guides will check the conditions and make the final call on whether its safe to go on the trip. If they decide the trip needs to be postponed, we'll work closely with you to reschedule or provide a credit for the full deposit, which can be applied to any of our trips in the US and beyond.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.

After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
