Great for bird watchers, easy going daily trip; Rath was an excellent guide through the National Park, knowledgable, attentive to travelers needs, timely, well organized. We love the experience of mixed activities, mixed wetlands ecosystems. We saw over 30 gators and rare birds. A+, though little pricey. We love it!

We were picked up promptly by Rhett our guide for the day. They tour is very well organized. We saw so many birds and had fun doing a checklist of what we saw. We saw so many alligators even very young ones. The boat ride was so cool. We had dolphins riding and jumping in our wake. The day was such a learning experience of the area and some history of south Florida. I highly recommend this safari. We had lunch out on a screened in patio and it was such a lovely day. Our kids-20,15, and 11 had a blast too. We so appreciated how Rhett had such a passion for the animals and environment.

Rhett was an excellent tour guide. His knowledge of the variety of wildlife via the trail and alligator tour was superb. He was a walking thesaurus when it came to the nature and wildlife. The entire day was worth every cent. Keep up the good work Rhett and thanks for sharing your personal history.
