I was so impressed with the quality of the tour. Every phase was smooth, well practiced and fun. We saw more animals than I thought we might. Our guide, Rhett, was so patient and knowledgeable, and a lot of fun to spend time with. Well done!

We truly have the best guides and Rhett is no exception. He is both fun and incredibly knowledgeable about every aspect of the Everglades. I've been doing Everglades tours for 22 years and I still learn from him every time I am around him. I'm glad you did too!

I have boys ages 6 and 8 and very few things keep their attention for 4-6 hours but this tour did! They loved every minute of it. We all did! It was the highlight of our trip to Bonita Springs/Naples. Thank you Pete and Rhett!

We did the 1/2 day Western Everglades adventure with our young grandsons (ages 6 and 9). It was amazing! We happened to have an unusually cool and windy day, but we added a couple layers of warm clothes and had a memorable, fun and educational experience. Both Pete and our airboat captain were knowledgeable, welcoming and obviously loved what they were doing. They made it a special and personal experience for our family. This excursion was a memory maker! It exceeded our expectations.
