Well-organised and informative - I recently joined a small-group Everglades airboat tour and had a wonderful experience. Walker, our guide, picked me up from my hotel, making the journey to the Everglades both easy and informative. The airboat ride was a highlight, getting close to the habitat. We had the opportunity to observe several alligators in their natural habitat, which was exciting. Additionally, the birdwatching was exceptional, with sightings of various species adding to the richness of the experience. After the ride, Walker ensured we had a comprehensive understanding of the area by guiding me through the reptile exhibits and sharing insightful information about the local ecosystem. For anyone seeking a well-organised and informative tour of the Everglades, I highly recommend this experience.

best decision, airboat, pick up Miami Beach - my wife and I were picked up on time by Walker Harris at Miami South Beach. We had informed ourselves in advance and definitely did not want to go to HolidayPark. This tour leads to Safari Park, which is much more in line with our expectations, as less touristy. Walker is an excellent TourGuide, and he can communicate with good easy English. We didn’t really realize it was an exclusive transfer due to the tour description. We were the only ones picked up by Walker. The hour's drive passed very quickly, we had good conversations with the guide. The airboat trip met our expectations: about 10 alligators in March and sometimes fast-paced trips over the Sawgrass. Afterwards, we went to eat Cuban Frita with Walker. By the way: This food was our favorite during our three week stay. So: If you want to be picked up from Miami Beach and take an airboat tour, you should definitely book this tour. Because she was suuper, we couldn't have imagined better. One of our highlights of the holiday, we are thrilled, also because of Walker.

Excellent day out; very personal approach. - We picked up from our hotel in South Beach and our Walker guide was happy to talk to us about the history of the area and give us lots of interesting information. It took about an hour to get there but it was a lovely journey in an air-conditioned car. There was a short introduction to the park, an alligator info session and then a 50 minute air boat ride. Ride was wonderful, we saw lots of interesting wildlife including alligators. We did the wildlife trail which was really nice. On the way back we stopped at a Cuban Café that the guy recommended and had an amazing lunch although this section was completely optional. Overall, a really brilliant day and well worth choosing this company.

Fun day in the Everglades - The driver/guide was friendly and knowledgeable. He picked me up and dropped me off at my hotel, which was very helpful in a big city with expensive taxis. I rode in an airboat and saw birds and alligators. The scenery was incredible. It was an excellent experience.

Amazing experience - It was great. The driver who picked me up from the hotel was amazing. He gave me a lot of advice to make sure I would enjoy the tour. The various tour guides were also awesome. We could feel the love for their alligators and the Everglades in general

A bit more for the price would be nice, but is still in the frame. - Picking up in Miami was straightforward and the tour guide was very friendly and we were able to talk very well during the ride. I also liked the airboat ride, but could have been a bit longer for the price. Overall, however, I was satisfied.
