Great guide . Interesting places . Lots of animals that you could observe - alligators , dolphins and others .
the boat rides were excellent. Mark was very informative although at times took on thevrole of preacher. The walk was disappointing, it was not long enough. Mark was great at pointing out the big animals and birds but could have been better at naming some of the smaller birds. Lunch was OK but the vehical could have carried some water.. All in all a great day out.
Nice guide who provided many details and comprehensive overview
With a small group the whole day under the roof, where the beautiful nature of the Everglades gets ample attention. Led by an expert guide and a well-prepared lunch.
loved that we were never rushed. learned a lot and not only was our driver/guide excellent, but our airboat and dolphin watching guides were great as well!
Punctuality, very talkative guide, everything went well.
Saw aligators in their natural habitat, as well as dolphins and spoonbills.
Exciting and informative visit with a passionate and fascinating guide. Breathtaking scenery with a variety of activities. A good meal. A top organization. Very good value for money. A good level of English is necessary to fully understand the visit.
We loved the sea trip to drive the dolphins… it was magical
