Excellent tour and first rate crew - We just left the tour with Captain Donnie and Peyton. We saw several dolphins, some egrets, cormorant, stingrays, and a brown pelican. They are locals who know the area well, and provided lots of interesting information. We highly recommend this tour and the first rate crew. They knew how to steer an excellent outing.

Great learning and seeing trip - It was a great trip!! Saw dolphins and learned about the Everglades. Well worth the money and time spent!!

Barrier adventure - Totally different from what we were expecting, which was a trip through reedy channels that had alligators on each side!

Picture Perfect Evergales Experience - Captain Donnie and First Mate Peyton were wonderful tour guides. They know the Everglades and care deeply about the environment within and outside that affects this fragile ecosystem. Folphons chased our tour boat and we saw several species of birds in their natural habitat. A picture perfect day on the water.

Very informative and nice... - Very informative and nice scenery. Louis our boat caption was knowledgeable, witty and fun. Saw a dolphin and various birds. Well worth it to get a feel for the Everglades.

Everglades Boat Tour - Great tour guides and very informative of the 10,000 islands/Everglades. We saw wildlife throughout the tour to includes multiple dolphin within a few feet of the boat.

Fun tour in the Everglades - We booked this tour based on the positive reviews and are adding another one! What a great tour - we got lucky and saw some dolphins swimming near the boat right away which the guide says doesn’t always happen. He pointed out birds and other interesting sights and told us a lot of interesting history and information. The highlight of the trip was about the turn around point where they drove the boat faster and dolphins played in the wake of the boat. We could see them so clearly. It was amazing! Our boat wasn’t full and we were encouraged to get up and move around. We really enjoyed this tour! The only hiccup we had was our GPS told us we had arrived and we hadn’t quite. I quickly called the phone number because we were running late and the young lady who answered helped us out. We were just down the street so made our tour on time!

Great excursion! - Our driver & guide was wonderful. He pointed out which direction to look when dolphins were spotted, and knew what speed to drive the boat to allow them to swim/jump alongside our craft. He was also very good at spotting/identifying shore birds. All the time telling us all about mangroves & how the islands were formed. Great excursion!

Very comfortable and scenic ride with lots of interesting information. - My first experience with 10,000 Islands

10,000 Islands ONLY - This is a 10,000 Islands boat ride, full stop. You may see a few dolphins and some birds. I booked this one after asking specifically if it was the islands only and being told “we use the water entrance to Everglades.” The cruise goes around the islands inside the boundaries of Everglades National Park, on the gulf side. When I asked, the description I got included mangrove tunnels, alligators, possibly manatees, so I assumed this meant inland waterways. Nope. I also booked this over other airboat options because I was looking for the kind of tour you get with park rangers - info on history, ecosystems, etc. Nope. The guys who drove the boat couldn’t have been nicer, to be clear, but it was a matter of finding some dolphins and coming back. We drove forever to do this before a flight from Miami. I could have saved myself hours, just done an airboat ride and been much happier.
