Good morning Mr. Geisler. Yes, our pontoon tours will be available in April. We'll be posting the dates for April's tours on March 21st. Reservations can be booked by calling the ranger station at 352-360-6760. The cost is $15 per person and the tours last a little over an hour. In April you're likely to see alligators, turtles and an abundance of birds. The tours run at 9:30am and 11am. If it's extremely warm out the 9:30 trip will likely give you a chance to see more wildlife. See you soon! Rachel Nunlist, Park Manager
