We were not sure what to expect on this adventure. What we got was one of the best days of our lives! Driving around in a luxury bus with continuous stops, boat rides, nature walks, lunch, all with a knowledgeable fun guide named Zak. We were so close to gators and dolphins we could have touched them. Anybody who books this will not be disappointed!!

All I can say is amazing!!! Marc was our over all tour guide and was honestly awesome! Very attentive to everyones needs, and very very knowledgeable and really a great tour host! Although we didn't see a ton of animals because of time of year we still saw some and the knowledge and boat rides/walk were entertaining by themselves. If you are that person that wants everything perfect and to see a million animals don't go, don't be that person that is going to leave a bad review because of things out of human control. The weather was going to be iffy so we got to carry ponchos with is but it never rained on us while we were outside of the van or restaurant eating. This was seriously a great day! I learned so much! BRING CASH TO TIP ALL OF THE GUIDES! They try really hard to look for animals or at least give you some local knowledge. You will have your van driver as a guide, the air boat guide and the last speed boat guide. The food was included in the tour but tip your waitress a little extra too! I can't fit more photos in this review but I think you get the idea.
