We realize that while everyone may wish to experience the Everglades on a more in-depth, up-close-and-personal level, we recognize that a full-length tour is not right for everyone. At the suggestion of some of our senior guests, we have developed these alternative, shorter versions of our tours. Guests will enjoy the beauty of the Everglades while learning about the unique culture and history, and the diverse plant and animal life, that call this wondrous place home.
