Our guide was Garl, the Steve Irwin of the Everglades. He took us to places we would not have gone by ourselves. If you want to know ANYTHING about the Everglades or the wildlife, Garl has the answer. He showed us baby alligators, an owl, a 15'/5m Crocodile, an alligator that ran towards Garl as he was picking up a plastic bag (which was the only piece garbage that I saw), frogs, spiders, lizards, air-plants, Roseate Spoon Bills, Osprey, Snowy Egrets, Great White Herons, fresh water turtles and countless other things. My wife saw a Sawfish which I am upset about, because I want to see one. But at least I got to see the Bobcat and she didn't! We will be going again! It felt like we were on a safari in a different country. It is a great way to enjoy the day in South Florida.
