Description

With your expert naturalist guide, head out on an amazing nature walk in Everglades National Park. Immerse yourself in the beauty of different ecosystems in the actual National Park. View a wide variety of birds, alligators, and other wildlife up close! And where it should be experienced, in the wild! We never go to places with animals in cages and pens. With your master naturalist guide, discover the flora and fauna of this wetland wilderness, and the role of water and conservation in this unique national treasure. Then go on an exhilarating 1-hour air boat ride way far out in the River of Grass. This is no touristy type of trip. Become immersed in the fascinating native culture as you visualize their beautiful remote way of life. You can only get there by boat and on this tour! There is time to explore a bit on your own as well. And take in a scenic narrated drive through the Everglades, led by your master naturalist guide.
