Description

A professional guide will pick you up from your Miami hotel in a Black Sprinter Van and provide insights during the drive to the park. Commentary is available in your chosen language. The 'small group' refers to transportation size; the public park airboats hold about 24 passengers and visitor numbers cannot be controlled.

Once at the park, enjoy a 50-60 minute guided airboat ride through the Florida Everglades on a flat-propelled boat. You may often see wild alligators and will learn about their behavior and habitat. After the ride, you can visit the gift shop which offers snacks and beverages before returning to your hotel. The entire tour usually lasts 4-5 hours but may take longer due to unforeseen delays.
