The Everglades is big. I mean VAST. This tour is a great way to get a sample of some of the diversity, not just of plants and animals, but also the types of landscapes. Ben is knowledgeable and attentive to questions and to the needs of the group. We also especially appreciated the tips for local fishing holes, thanks Ben!

If you want to get a good taste of the Everglades I would highly recommend this tour. The advertised price is $165 but there are plenty of $20 off coupons. They pick you up at your hotel, then take you on an airboat ride, then drive to Big Cypress National Preserve to see alligators up close in their natural surroundings, an easy, flat walk thorough cypress forest (saw plenty of snakes including the dreaded Burmese python, southern lunch and boat ride through Thousand Islands. An all day adventure.

The day was wonderful. Especially enjoyed the air boat ride. Ben was our tour guide. Such a wealth of knowledge and so anxious to share it. Well worth it.
