Review of Miami’s 3-in-1 tour with a city bus ride, Biscayne Bay cruise, and Everglades airboat adventure, including honest planning tips.
“The location where tour starts is an unorganized mess! No one is really in charge. They’d rather be snacking on food and talking! They never clearly explained how we were doing all three tours. It was piecemeal information and all tours started late. We did not see any alligators on Everglades ride except the caged ones! Bus tour was hard to understand guide as she had three different languages she was using and had a strong accent herself. Besides having 30 kids on bus yelling and screaming to people on the street! Boat tour was ok but didn’t show much! Boat was playing rap music so loud!! Get a different…”

Review of Miami’s Everglades airboat tour with hotel pickup, a 60-minute ride, wildlife show, guide tips, pricing, and honest drawbacks.
“Our Driver/Guide Dominick was very good, pick up from hotel and communication etc was faultless. Plenty of information about Miami in general which kept us entertained on the outwards journey.

“The bus ride was comfortable, and the driver was very friendly and provided us with very clear tips and directions for the tour. Once we arrived we went to the boat, and Captain Andrew was our tour guide. We had a lot of luck with the weather because it was sunny and not too cold, but we definitely recommend long sleeves for the wind as the boat speeds through the canal. Captain Andrew spotted 4 alligators for us, we got close to them and took many pics! He had a lot of dad jokes lol and answered many of our questions about the reptiles, which made the boat ride super…”

Review of a Miami Everglades tour with a nature walk, airboat ride, Miccosukee village visit, wildlife, snacks, and hotel transport.
“We‘ve booked the half day tour in the Everglades. It was a great expierence and we really appreciated our guide Elijah. He has so much knowledge about all the animals and history of the Everglades/Natives. We saw a lot of gators, birds and fish on the walk and the ride. The small group of 8 people made it also feel super relaxed. The boat ride was very scenic! It was topped of with a short visit to a Miccosukee village. The only little negative point for us was on the boat. We had the feeling that the alligators were rather scared and stressed by the boat. But of course that…”

“Very disorganized from the moment we arrived! The best thing was that the bus allowed us to nap after the Everglades visit...BTW isn't there a better park in the Everglades besides Holiday Everglades Park? Not what I expected at all,,,so lame although we did see a few gators on the air boat ride. If I could do over I would avoid purxhasing the this tour and buy tickets on my own for both outings!!”
