    Excellent tour with exceptional guide. Tammy was knowledgeable and keen to give everyone the best experience possible. The nature walk was fabulous and we saw many gators, turtles and birds. Wonderful airboat ride with Miccosukee guide was a bucket list activity for me. Loved it. Pickup and drop off to our door made this an easy and very pleasurable tour.

    Great trip

    We were two in a group of 8 people with a guide. The shuttle picked us up at the airB & B and drove to the Everglades. There was snacks and sunscreen for all the water. We started with a walk on one of the available trails through the NP. Right at the beginning we were lucky to find some baby alligators. The walk was really great beetle birds alligators with it all. The guide has also explained some of the plants and history. After that we went to the airboat after a short break. A little fun with fresh breeze also there we have seen a lot. A small stop on a platform was also there, we have seen an alligator lady from the near. Then it went back. It was great for a half day trip! We were excited and really satisfied. The Gudie was super friendly, funny and just great !!!!

    Since there were not enough registrations for this tour, Wild Lime Adventures offered me WhatsApp a full day tour the day after tomorrow for a slightly cheaper fare. I had to pay $ 50, but would have the money back without further ado. But it was worth it. Everything was perfectly organized, pick up at the hotel and drive to the airport, drinks, food, sunscreen, ear protection ... Right at the beginning we could observe at least 6 alligators from a boardwalk. Have then made a nice walk on a boardwalk in the forest thicket, get lots of explanations about plants and animals. Beautiful was the airboat ride in the evening sun with a visit to a former Miccosukeeunterkunft. The highlight was an unpredictable encounter with a pack of dolphins during the boat trip in the area of 10,000 islands. They swam among us, made aerial leaps and followed us in the wake for a long time. That was more than I expected.
