It was a cold and rainy day, but we still had a great time and saw lots of animals and birds. Julio, our guide, was very knowledgeable, accommodating and caring! The boat guides were fantastic as well and made sure we all had a chance to observe the animals - we saw a lot of dolphins, as well as white and brown pelicans, and even saw a spoonbill.

Scott was so real, funny, and engaging! My son was the only kid in the group (12 yrs) and he made sure the tour was educational, but in a “fun” way. We saw several alligators, but the boat ride alone was worth the cost. One of our favorite Florida experiences!!!

Guides were awesome and extremely knowledgeable. Super fun and they know how to keep you entertained very well with jokes and knowledgeable information about the Everglades at the same time.

Amazing experience to see what is a real signature of Florida, Everglades. I had so much fun with my kids. Boats are too noise though, we could have had even more fun with good earmuffs.

This was such a fun time thing to do! I forgot our tour person name, but he was so amazing, funny and made the tour Experince worth it!
