From Miami: Everglades Airboat, Wildlife Show & Bus Transfer

2.From Miami: Everglades Airboat, Wildlife Show & Bus Transfer

★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 8,622 reviews · 5 hours · from $49

Travel by air-conditioned bus from Miami to Everglades Holiday Park, then ride an airboat with an expert captain such as Kyle, Jose, or German. Look for alligators, turtles, birds, and vultures before an alligator show and free group photo. Bus commentary is available in English or Spanish, but the Everglades portion is in English only.

“Everything was great. It was just the time that was a bit short. One more hour would have been enough for everyone to take a picture with the baby alligator without being rushed by the guide to hurry, as well as eating something outside instead of gobbling our sandwiches in a rush in the bus on the way back.”

“The boat was cute, clean and comfortable and the crew was friendly We saw multiple dolphins in the harbor area and out in the gulf. It was cool to see them jumping the boat wake like we were part of a show at Sea World! However, the experience would have been enhanced if we had learned more about the area and marine life along the way.”

“The taxi schedule was pretty easy to figure out and the trip up and down the waterway was really cool. The guys with the mics were funny and informative. If we knew the area better we’d have hopped on and off more to go do things but we didn’t so we just rode up and down and that was pretty fun for a cheap ticket.”
