The trip was pretty good, but they didn’t do what we were promised when we signed up. Not worth $199 per person.

Hi Jayn, I'm very curious what we left out. I looked back at our GPS logs for the day and your guide hit all the spots! Picked you up on time - Check Airboat ride in Everglades National Park - Check Nature Walk in Big Cypress National Preserve - Check Wildlife Drive - Check Lunch at Triad Seafood Restaurant - Check Visit to Historic Smallwoods Store - Check Dolphin Cruise in Everglades National Park - Check Return to Flamingo Gardens drop-off on time - Check I'm disappointed we couldn't meet your expectations. We do our best.

An excellent and fun wildlife tour through Florida's Everglades and Cypress Reserve, featuring a diverse array of wildlife like alligators, dolphins, and various birds. The tour was perfectly paced with just the right amount of adventure. Our guide was exceptionally helpful and informative, enhancing the experience. The bus was comfortable and well-kept. Highly recommended for its friendly atmosphere and the unforgettable wildlife encounters. Easily one of the best tours I've experienced.
