With your expert naturalist guide, head out on an amazing 90-minute nature walk in Everglades National Park, the only Unesco World Heritage Site in Florida. This is your chance to view a wide variety of wildlife, including birds, large alligators, baby alligators, turtles, and more, up close! And where it should be experienced, in the wild! Discover the biodiversity of this one-of-a-kind wetland wilderness.

For 20-30 minutes, explore Everglades National Park on your own and stop in at the national park visitor center. Collect stamps, pins, or other souveneirs of your choice from ENP. Also, go on a scenic narrated drive led by your naturalist through the Everglades.

Take an exhilarating 60-70 minute air boat ride way far from land way out in the true "River of Grass." This non-touristy trip is your opportunity to see all kinds of wildlife and a vast array of bird species. Learn about the Native American culture, and to experience the remote beauty of their unique way of life.

    Mitch is very personable and is an excellent communicator and knowledgeable tour guide. Mitch is a very valuable team member because he coordinated with Ben, the owner, in making certain that our tour would run smoothly, timely, and efficiently, making it an enjoyable experience.

    Learn all about the Everglades Ecosystem. It’s so important to protect these areas, we’re building more and eliminating more of wild life habitats.

    It was nice to have the pickup at a hotel within walking distance of our hotel. After arriving at the National Park we took a leisurely walk along a canal to view the various wildlife. We took an airboat ride for about an hour before returning to the pickup point. Our guide Lindsay was very knowledgeable and very excited to show us what was around.

    Lyndsey was an excellent guide for the tour. She was very knowledgeable about the animals, vegetation and the overall ecosystem of the area. While she shared a wealth of information, she was also very fun to spend the time with. Highly recommend this tour as an introduction to the Everglades

    Our guide, Tammy, was very knowledgeable about the Everglades - the tour was great! We were able to see alligators, turtles, and many different types of birds. The airboat ride added an extra view of this fascinating place and we were able to learn about the people who take care of it. I strongly recommend this tour.

    Linsey was excellent. Really knowledgeable and energetic with lots of interesting information. We were lucky with weather so saw lots of gators basking in the sun and lots of birds and turtles too!

    Awesome experience our guide Mitch was extremely knowledgeable. We were picked up at our hotel in Hollywood Beach by Ben. We really enjoyed the walking tour in the park and the airboat ride was great with stops to some of the islands in Everglades.

  • Best way to spend a day in the Everglades!

    My friend and I had a fantastic time on this excursion. We'd booked a half-day trip, but decided on the spot to extend to the full-day, and zero regrets - the "wet walk" nature hike was unforgettable, the folksy lunch spot was both delicious and filled with down-to-Earth old-time Florida quirky charm, the boat ride through the islands (complete with dolphins) was a load of fun, and our guide (Ryan) was insanely knowledgeable on any and every topic, from history to geology to flora, fauna, and local trivia and lore. He kept us entertained for the entire trip. If you only have a day or two in Miami, make this one of them.

  • Better than expected
