Traveler reviews
Prepare for the heat!!!
Great experience didn’t expect it to be that far away but it was ok. I thought we were gonna be on an open air boat but it was 1 that was closed with sides open . That’s made it very hot . We did see about 6 alligators but that was it .
Everglades exploration
Reach out to your guide beforehand and make sure to get picked up at your hotel if you didn’t see it as a selection to choose. Antoine was our guide and he was really nice and gave a lot of information. That’s the main reason I would recommend this experience as opposed to just renting a car and going on your own. The airboat ride was nice- got to see wildlife and a few alligators. The alligator show afterwards was fun-every age can enjoy!
Good
Very nice experience. However, there were different pickup locations before departure. But everything worked out.
Great experience
Everyone was very friendly and knowledgeable. We saw several alligators and other wildlife. The show after the boat ride was very informative
Excellent
Very good Pick-up at the hotel During the trip, there was a discussion about the Everglades in both French and English. Airboat tour to see alligators, birds, and flora. A guide full of friendliness and contagious energy. A must-do without hesitation; I recommend it.
