Time was short, so we went on a half day trip with Garl in the Everglades. We kayaked, walked back into a swamp, and took a night walk. Garl is a wonderful guide, and knows so much about the Everglades. It was simply amazing, and I learned so much, and saw so much more than I would have on a self guided tour. My 20 year old son was with me, and he loved it too. Garl's kayaks are first rate, he didn't 'cheap out' on them, they have the comfortable seats that you could ride all day. We even had a glass of wine on the water at sunset, great way to end a fine kayak ride. This was well worth the money! I plan to return with photographer friends and do a longer trip that he taylors just for photographers.
