I had such a great experience. Our guide was so awesome and knowledgeable. I enjoyed all aspects of the tour but was surprised how special the reptile show at the end was. Highly recommend!

My kids (ages 10, 8, & 3) as well as my mom and, husband all enjoyed this excursion. The tour starts promptly (please don't be late) with a nature walk where you get the opportunity to explore different habitats as well as learn about wildlife, plant species, and insect that live in the area. I would encourage you to wear water shoes and insect repellant. It does get sunny in some portions of the hike and, I did put sunscreen on my kiddos. After your hike, you will drive to the next portion of your tour. I would avoid the birds when entering and, make sure that your kids avoid the birds. They are in cages but, still have the ability to bite you if you aren't careful. We avoided the area. My 8 and 10 year old loved learning about alligators and snakes. They were able to hold and interact with several snakes and an alligator names Mary! Our tour guide Rhett was very informative and patiently answered all of our questions. He shared all sorts of fun facts that inspired my kids to want to learn more about the Everglades and the creatures that live there. Our airboat ride was smooth and we spotted 25 plus alligators, several different species of bird, and a turtle. Our Captain identified the birds for us, but it was a little difficult to hear him- especially since we were wearing the ear protection. I reapplied sunscreen for the boat portion of the tour. We all really enjoyed this tour!
