Hi all, We would have loved to book a tour with you on Sunday, but I just found out you are net doing any tours on Sundays. We only have Sunday as we are traveling onwards. Can you, by any chance, recommend another tour which operates under the Same conditions (price, quiet tour, animal sightings, eco friendly)? Thank you so much. Ramona

Hi, Do you have a pick up/drop off bus from Miami downtown to your attraction. Also do your smaller airboats (4 of us in our group) travel through the grasslands??We would like an hour tour at least and then is there a show as well? Cheers Colleen

Miami is probably a good 2 hours away from this area. I would suggest concentrating on the airboat tours that are closer to Miami. As for your other questions, no, there is no show and any place that would have a "show" is probably pretty tacky. All the airboat tours I've taken on the west side of the everglades are in mangrove areas, not grassy areas. Unless you want to spend a lot of time driving, try out the areas on the eastern side of the Everglades. About the farthest I would go if I were driving from Miami is to the Shark Valley visitor entrance and I would suggest taking the tram tour. It is a good tour, with competent, knowledgeable guides, and you see a ton of wildlife, far more than on the airboat tours. I would also comment that most of the airboat "tours" that I've seen are not actually tours, but more like airboat "rides." If that is what you are looking for, that is one thing. But if you really want to learn something, take a real tour instead.
