Follow on Google News | New Owners to Improve Wooten's Airboat ToursWooten's Airboat Tours, a 60-year-old airboat tourism company, has been purchased by the Patels of Fort Myers, who also own Everglades City Motel and Captain Doug's Everglades Tours in Everglades City, Florida.
By: Wooten's Airboat Tours George Patel and his son Aashish, who also own and operate Everglades City Motel and Captain Doug’s Everglades Tours, have already begun to make improvements, including adding an hourly alligator show run by an experienced handler. “Our first priority is to make sure visitors have a safe and entertaining visit when they make the trip all the way to the Everglades,” Wooten’s will keep what makes it unique: 253 acres of private land, airboat tours through the grasslands of the Everglades, swamp buggy tours through a cypress forest, and an animal sanctuary home to panthers, snakes, otters, bobcats, tigers, crocodiles, and over 100 alligators. “I’m happy my father Gene sold the company to the Patels,” said Shelley Gericke, a swamp buggy tour guide at Wooten’s. “They have a lot of experience with tourism in the Everglades, so I know Wooten’s will continue its 60-year legacy in good hands.” Interested visitors can call 1-800-282-2781 or visit http://www.wootenseverglades.com for more information.
