Nature Walk led by a Naturalist in Everglades National Park
Join us on a 1.5-hour nature walk led by a master naturalist in an ecosystem like no other in the world. Rated as easy, this extensive dry walk offers the opportunity to see large alligators, baby alligators, turtles, a vast array of bird species, and much more! Unlike other tours, we never visit places with animals in cages and pens. Instead, experience wildlife up close, in the wild! Learn from the naturalist guide about the unique ecosystem and why Everglades National Park is the only UNESCO World Heritage Site in Florida. Understand the critical role of water flow in the historic Everglades and current conservation efforts.
1-Hour or Longer Air Boat Ride in the “River of Grass”
Experience a unique airboat ride way out in the “River of Grass” region of the real Everglades. We partner with a Native family company guide to explore far from land and immerse ourselves in this vast wilderness. We’ll stop at a Native tree island or two to explore and learn about the Native peoples’ way of life. On this National Geographic-like trip, see all kinds of wildlife, including large and baby alligators, a wide array of bird species, and perhaps even the critically endangered Everglades snail kite!
Other Aspects of the Trip
You’ll have time to explore on your own in the National Park and visit the National Park Visitor Center. Visiting Everglades National Park is a bucket list experience, especially for those who have visited other national parks but haven’t yet visited this iconic one.
