Family oriented, and too short
Michelle_W
, Jan 2021
To be frank It was a let down. Too short and anticlimactic for the drive to be worth it. It would have been more enjoyable if it was a longer and more private tour.

It was an all around great experience. We learned so much and had fun doing it. Great captain, funny, educated about environment, and even had all the wild aligators named out in the swamp.

Avoid. Schedule, boat and Covid safety not as advertised
oliver_m

Bus ride there took 1.5 hours even though we were second to last pickup spot. Most of that time spent sitting at last bus stop while our double-decker bus was filled to capacity. No open windows and many passengers removed masks during the journey. Asked driver to ensure people wear masks on return journey to which he replied "not my problem". Park itself looked like a construction site and both the show and boat tour had been clearly oversubscribed. Boats are much bigger than pictured, looked like they held closer to 20 people in 5 closely packed rows, also had a low roof, again hardly "good for avoiding crowds" as advertised on website. Huge line of people waiting for boats and at least a 30 minute wait for the wildlife show afterward. After 45 minutes of waiting for boat we gave up and elected to uber back (another $50 on top of $99 per person booking fee) to avoid further waits and the overcrowded bus journey back. Relayed all this to Viator afterwards, they replied "Unfortunately during high season the Everglades tours are very popular. The tour was however conducted a per description" and no refund given just a $25 discount on future bookings. This tour was clearly overbooked, with scant regard for Covid-19 safety. The schedule and boat are NOT as described on website. Avoid.

I went with JP and he picked me up in downtown Miami. I thought it was a great experience because, not only did I get to go to the Everglades, but he told us all about Miami too. He pointed out different places and had so much information to tell us. I highly recommend him! The Everglades boat ride was wonderful and very informative too, and also the alligator show afterwards. I thought it was all great value for the money.
