Everglades - Upon reaching the Indian reservation, you’ll be warmly welcomed to a Miccosukee family-operated airboat base, away from the bustling tourist parks. Here, the highlight of your adventure begins: typically, your group will experience a private one-hour airboat ride.
Board a small, open-air airboat with elevated seats designed for panoramic views. Guided by your captain, glide across miles of untouched wetlands, passing through sawgrass prairies, cypress forests, and mangrove corridors. Keep an eye out for alligators, turtles, and vibrant birdlife along the way.
The experience also includes visits to two private islands (hammocks). The first island is home to rescued alligators and turtles cared for by the community. The second island holds special significance: once the village where the Miccosukee family resided until 1962, it now serves as an educational site. Here, you might encounter the legendary “Papa Alligator” or “Mama Alligator,” and you’ll have the opportunity to stroll along a short boardwalk. - Miccosukee Indian Village - Visit the Miccosukee Indian Village Store (except on Monday and Tuesday, when an alternative stop is provided). A brief driving tour of the Indian reservation will follow.
- Miami - Return to your hotel or be dropped off at any other location in downtown Miami or Miami Beach.

⚠️ Important Seasonal Update
Due to significantly low water levels in the traditional Miccosukee airboat regions north of Tamiami Trail, all airboat operators in this area have temporarily halted their marsh operations. Currently, one operator is offering limited canal rides only.
Starting March 10, 2026, the tour will be conducted at an authorized airboat facility within Everglades National Park.
The experience features a 40–45 minute shared airboat ride on a large open airboat, an alligator presentation, access to a nature trail, and free time to explore the gift shop and snack area.
All entrance fees to Everglades National Park are included.
This Everglades adventure is unlike the crowded parks or large boats most agencies provide.
Within the Indian reservation, guests can board a small open-air airboat with elevated seating—offering a more personal experience than the 50+ passenger boats. Glide across untouched wetlands, from sawgrass prairies to cypress swamps, and visit two private islands.
