My sister and I had a wonderful time on this tour! Our National Park Tour guide was engaging and knowledgeable. He (Bobby?) kept his 'eye on the sky' as foul weather was suspect, while maximizing our wildlife sightings. And he waited until he was certain before identifying a specific bird species, or water creature. He slowed/turned the boat to ensure every passenger was given an opportunity, shared the positives and challenges of the Everglades and the various regions/habitats, and entertained specific questions while ensuring the safety of our tour. We were rained upon and did not care! Mosquitos were manageable out on the water (plus there was a nice breeze). We would highly recommend! Downsides? He was strictly speaking (as advertised) so a couple of guests were a bit lost, and he did not introduce the "guide in training" who was on the boat with us which I thought was a bit odd since she was wearing official NP uniform.
We very much enjoyed the boat tour. Our guide, Bobby, was passionate about the Everglades, and it showed. We found him very interesting, and also got to see crocodiles, orchids, ibis, egrets, and many more species of trees and birds. A great tour!
When you get to the Flamingo Tour Area the first thing you need to know is even if you have the virtual voucher you need wrist bands for your entire party. The "booth" for that is behind the pink general store. Also, if you are going in the heat of summer... BUG SPRAY! I CANNOT stress that enough! The general has snacks and souvenirs so check it out! The guides are very knowledgeable and are very informative. They are also more than willing to answer any questions you may have. During our tour we saw different species of birds, we saw sharks, manatees, and salt water crocodiles. There are also varying plant species that you will learn about should you choose this excursion. I would do this tour again; however, I would prefer a cooler time of the year!
Capt. Nick was great. Our tour guide Finn was very knowledgeable. Enjoyed the trip.
Thank you for the great review! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the trip. Captain Nick and Finn make a fantastic team, and we’re glad Finn’s knowledge helped make the experience both enjoyable and informative. We appreciate you joining us and hope to welcome you back for another adventure on the water soon!
Really enjoyed the trip, and lucky to see all the key creatures. The trip is definitely worth the $100 for the couple, but the $235 entry fee to the park makes it expensive and probably not worthwhile. The good thing is the park entry is valid for a week, so would advise sharing that cost across friends and then definitely worth it.
Thank you for your review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the trip and were lucky enough to see many of the iconic wildlife species that make the Everglades so special. We appreciate your comments regarding cost. Just to clarify for future visitors, park entrance fees are set by the National Park Service and are separate from the tour. We’re happy to hear you found the tour itself to be a worthwhile experience and that you were able to take advantage of the park pass validity period to get even more value from your visit. Thank you for joining us, and we hope to welcome you back for another adventure in the Everglades soon!
Excellent way to see the southern end of Everglades National Park. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. We saw many birds, some snakes, and crocks.

The boat trip was excellent. The tour guide actively sought out and identified wildlife and plants on the trip. He was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions in detail. He also described the entire environment of the Everglades and the challenges it faces.
Thank you for the wonderful review!

We truly appreciate you joining us and hope to welcome you back for another memorable adventure!
Great guided boat tour of the backwater in Flamingo in Everglades National Park. Admission is reasonable if you have a NPS park pass, otherwise a bit pricey to get into the park and take the boat tour. Saw a lot of crocodiles and birds, along with a few manatees.
Thank you for the great review! We’re glad you enjoyed exploring the backwaters of Flamingo in Everglades National Park and had the chance to see such incredible wildlife—crocodiles, birds, and even manatees are always highlights. We appreciate your note on park admission as well, and we’re happy you were able to take advantage of your National Park Service pass. Thanks again for joining us, and we hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon!
The tour was great, but would not recommend booking through viator. Knowledgeable and friendly guide and captain. Saw a lot of animals, including multiple crocodiles and a variety of birds. The downside was when booking kids tickets, viator did not book tickets, just left a note as children under 5 are free. When we arrived they were not on the log and it was a full boat. We were lucky because there were 2 no shows. Book directly through the tour company.
Thank you for the detailed review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the tour and had the chance to see such great wildlife, and that our team helped make it a positive experience. We also appreciate you bringing the booking issue to our attention. We’re sorry for the confusion and stress upon arrival—that’s certainly not the experience we want for our guests. We’ll continue working to minimize situations like this. Thank you again for joining us, and we hope to welcome you back for another smooth and enjoyable trip in the future!
