The guides are assembled from a truly remarkable group of naturalists,
doctors of ornithology and world renowned herpetologists to escort you
into one of the most beautiful and unique places on earth - The
Everglades.
The Everglade Day Safari is a full day of adventure and includes:
Airboat Ride - Take a ride on the wild side! Explore a 1500 acre
inland lake where more alligators per acre reside than anywhere in the
world. For one hour you will be surrounded by more wildlife than you can
ever imagine. It is a remarkable ride.
Wildlife Drive - This part of the tour takes you along back roads into
Big Cypress Preserve, the 780,000 acre national park which was purchased
by the federal government in the 70's. This is primarily a fresh water
area and home to a vast array of plants and animal wildlife. You never
know what will show up!
Southern Lunch - This great Southern lunch is consumed with gusto at
the Seafood Depot. This 1928, Spanish-style stucco structure began as the
old Everglades train depot. The building has housed numerous restaurants
and appeared in the movie 'Winds across the Everglades'. You are sure to
enjoy the food and the atmosphere. Fodor's has given the Seafood Depot an
excellent rating of 5.
Boat Ride - This relaxing 90 minute boat ride departs from Everglades
National Park and works its way through the 10,000 Islands to the Gulf of
Mexico. On this fully narrated ride, dolphin, manatees and many shore
birds are usually seen. The very important ecosystem - the mangrove
estuaries - is discussed at length.
Nature Walk - These walks are leisurely strolls into the cypress swamp
area of the Everglades. These are fresh water areas which are home to the
very rare Florida panther, bear, otter, mink, deer and feral pigs. Old
growth cypress trees, ferns and bromeliads abound.
