I researched several Everglades tours for my grandsons (ages 9 and 14) during vacation. So glad that I chose this one. It was fabulous! We saw gators, birds, animals, plants & learned a lot!
They have so many boats that the wait wasn't more than 20 minute or so. We used that time to look around and take pictures. Before boarding the airboat, they take a free picture of your group. And, your group can get a free pic with a small gator too.
Airboat was covered. Our guide turned the boat around each time we spotted gators or other things so everyone could see. And, she talked about Everglades history in a way that was interesting to kids and adults. Water rushes under your feet when the airboat stops on longer runs, so remember to pick up your feet if you don't want them wet.
We went to the gator show after the airboat ride. Very interesting, and the narrator pointed out kids in the audience that made it fun for them. I recommend waiting to catch the next show if it is full so you can get covered seats. We arrived after the show started, and it was really hot sitting in the sun.
There are a couple of places to eat lunch off this exit, but I would have stopped at a different exit with more choices if I had known that restaurants were limited.
It was a great afternoon all the way around for everyone! I highly recommend this Everglades tour!
