Bryson’s Airboat Tours

While exploring the 20 lakes of the Fremont Lakes State Recreation Area, you might hear what you think are airplanes flying low behind the trees. Many local river rats use aircraft engines on their air boats. The 21-foot-long airboats from Bryson’s Airboat Tours can haul 11 passengers gliding at 60 mph over the Platte River thanks to motors cranking out 700 horsepower. These boats sure do fly.
