$32 boat trip. Guide from the Caribbean. I could only understand about 1/2 of what he was saying, heavy accent, very frustrating. He seemed to know a lot, but also seemed sarcastic and not too friendly, although not shy about asking for a tip at the end.

This was a very interesting and personal tour led by a guide who has grown up in the Everglades. We learned all about the Everglades ecosystem and got up-close-and-personal with both the vegetation and wildlife. The day was perfect, that is, sunny but not too hot. For a very reasonable price, we saw more and had more fun than we... More

We visited the Everglade NP, driving in from Florida City. Best part is the first turn off, Royal Palm. The rest was more of the same and less to see. We decided to do a boat trip, mistake. Save your money and stay at Royal Palm. We tried to get a coffee before the trip, a dozen or so boat... More

We took the Mangrove Wilderness Tour in April 2013. I understand that each one has a different experience and if your kid sees a Dolphin the whole trip might be seen in a different light - and what looks as the worst thing ever become a WOW. So, I'll try to eliminate those to let the reader make an intelligent... More

I did all my research online & wanted to take this tour especially because it was the only approved tour to go into the Everglades National Park. I traveled from St Pete to meet family visiting from Norway that were staying in Palm Beach, FL. They really wanted to see the unique beauty of the Everglades and I thought this... More

I took this trip while I was on Spring Break with the family...I honestly was not too excited too leave the beach for the day but, I was pleasantly surprised!!! We took the 10,000 islands tour and saw lots of dophins and several different species of birds. Our captain and deckhand were very informative. We also had a park ranger... More

Reserved the mangrove boat tour for our family of five. We arrived about an hour early and there is a decent mini-exhbition/museum on premises that's interesting and explains a lot about the area and what you could see in the the Everglades. There's also a small souvenir store as well as a small concessions area. Both tours, mangrove and 10000... More

The centre does boat trips out around the islands which we would highly recommend. As it is in the National Park no other boats are allowed where you go so it is all really natural and no noisy motor boats whizzing around. Its lovely to get in amongst the islands in the small boat and we saw lots of birds... More

We took this trip as our introduction to the area and it was great. We helped out with a bird survey and were lucky enough to have park rangers as well as the captain and crew. We saw lots in our 90 minute trip and really enjoyed it.
