On this day trip, we'll discover the Everglades, the wildest region of Florida, passing through the swamps in a hovercraft and seeing a crocodile show.
Standard Day Trip
At the designated time, we'll leave the location in the center of Miami that you selected during the booking process and hit the road East to the Everglades. During this 40-minute journey, we'll listen to interesting facts about the Everglades, one of the most famous wetlands in Florida.
Once we arrive at the vicinity of the park, we'll tell you how to reach the boat in the Everglades, and you'll take a hovercraft to explore the swamps, where the shallow depth of the water makes it impossible for other types of boats to pass: all the while on the lookout for crocodiles, caimans, and turtles.
After the hovercraft trip, those who want to will enjoy a thrilling crocodile show, getting up close and personal with the animals, and where the bravest will be able to take a photo with them! If you don't want to see the show, you'll have free time to grab a snack or visit the gift shop.
With the show over, the group meets up again, and before returning to Miami, there will be free time to relax, buy souvenirs, or try the delicious food made with the local produce!
Finally, between 4 and 4.5 hours later, the tour will return to Miami.
VIP Day Trip
If you prefer to embark on this day trip in an exclusive way, you can book the VIP tour of the Everglades.
This tour departs from Miami in a smaller, more comfortable vehicle, traveling with a small group. Please note that this small group size applies only to the vehicle portion of the tour, not the airboat ride.
Unlike the standard tour, which is less expensive because it takes place in areas of the Everglades outside the National Park boundaries, this VIP tour explores the interior of Everglades National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Since this is a protected area, you will not see crocodile shows.
Another benefit from the VIP day trip is that the hovercraft used will always be an open-top one, and you'll have a guide driver who will share the park's secrets as you glide.
Private Day Trip
If you'd prefer to tour the Everglades with an exclusive guide just for you, you can book our private tour of Miami and the Everglades.
Wildlife Spotting
Everglades National Park is home to a large colony of alligators and other wildlife. However, please keep in mind that animals are unpredictable, so sightings aren't guaranteed. Whether you see a bunch of them or just a few depends on things like the weather, breeding seasons, or the current state of the wetlands.
