When we were in Naples a couple of years ago he wanted to do an airboat tour in the Everglades. I vetoed it - not in September of a hot year with no cold weather to slow down the bugs! They don't bite him but I get eaten alive. January is the better time to do it, IMO.

How expensive is the airboat? ETA never mind - I found their web site. Not too bad considering tourist prices in that area.
