We had the most wonderful, amazing, fulfilling and hugely enjoyable full day in the Everglades NP with Zach who was not just
a lovely friendly man but inspirational, hugely enthusiastic and knowledgeable about everything we saw and did during that
action packed day..... a long safe and interesting drive through Southern Florida and the Everglades - the amazing Air Boat ride
across the Sea of Grass, the driving and walking safari and the boat cruise among the islands and mangroves bordering the
Gulf of Mexico and finally a visit to the extraordinary and unique Museum of local artefacts from the last century.
A lovely warm sunny day in beautiful surroundings - a superlative full day enhanced totally by the professionalism and knowledge of Zach.
A 5star experience everyone should have if they have the opportunity. Thank you Zach you made our day.

We had an amazing guide full of info - don't expect long silences Unless you request it - because there isn't enough time in the day for the information you can learn from Marc! He would easily answer any questions thrown by my daughter and myself. We had a wonderful experience of being the only two on the journey.
The airboat tour was good - missed the private feeling of the rest of the tour, but it was good to experience. I want to go back and try a smaller airboat experience now. The boardwalk was fascinating - so much to learn from these ecological treasures!
The boat ride my favorite part was wonderful with as experience captain who was able to show us a good taste of the area - we didn't see dolphins or manatees on this trip but many beautiful birds and islands that were fascinating. We were not disapointed and it leaves something to experience next time! Marc came along since there were only the two of us - so I cannot say how the boat tour would be without our personal guide in regards to commentary - but I bet it would be wonderful regardless. The stop at the museum/store was fascinating and I am so glad the hurricane didn't hurt it too badly.
The lunch stop was tasty and fresh - quite lovely and ready for when we arrived. The area has been savagely hit by the hurricane - we saw lots of evidence and it is very heart warming to see things are carrying on. My heart breaks for those with condemned homes and businesses. I want to come back to this corner of the world to experience more, this tour gave us a very good view of what is available.
I will add pictures later - we have many amazing and wonderful shots from our long day of experiences. Thanks Marc! We definately recomend this for anyone wanting to really see the Everglades!
