We went on a 2-hour night safari poleboat tour with Guy, who was very knowledgable about the Everglades’ ecosystem. We saw a lot of wildlife, and were even able to do some stargazing as we glided through the mangroves. It was a truly unique experience that I’d highly recommend!

This place was amazing. Pole boat tour for the kids 18th birthday. All the staff was very friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. Loved the gift shop, and even took home one of their beavercraft knifes. Would recommend if you're in this area. We drove from brevard county for this tour and did not regret it one bit.

A bit disorganised, but to be fair we wanted to book a kayak tour the same day and called early in the morning. Ended up just renting kayaks and going by ourselves. Great experience! Kayaks were great, amazing nature and saw many alligators!
