Mangrove Wilderness Tour +5 Stars - The Mangrove Wilderness Tour from Everglades Florida Adventures was a wonderful experience. The folks at Florida Adventures were welcoming and accommodating. There welcome center has a well-stocked store, which was helpful because I forgot my sunscreen. The Mangrove Wilderness Tour is a trip through the history and the natural beauty of the Everglades. Our tour guide Bobby led us through the backwaters and less traveled regions. The highlight was the Mangrove Tunnel down the Secret River. This is not a thrill ride it is an immersive experience of the natural beauty of this corner of the Everglades.

Best boat ride - It was amazing! My parents and siblings saw dolphins, manatees, and pelicans up close. The dolphins swam with us. The captain Lyle was very nice and he can tell you anything about the Everglades. We went through a mangrove forest where it was really shallow and you could touch the trees with your hands. There were little tree crabs. It was the best boat ride I ever did. Anouk 11 🐬🐬

Incredible experience - It was an incredible experience! Bobby, our guide, was outstanding—his love for what he does and his deep respect for the animals and environment truly shines through. As we navigated through the mangroves, Bobby shared fascinating insights into the Everglades’ unique ecosystem and helped us spot a wide range of wildlife, including several bird species and even dolphins! One highlight was visiting the fascinating island made of coral rock. Highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting an authentic and respectful Everglades adventure. Thank you, Bobby, for an amazing experience!

Amazing experience! Highly recommend! - My husband and I went on this boat trip today and I had to write a review right away. It was one of the best boat rides that we’ve been on because it was a combination of the stunning scenery, and our tour guide Lyle, who was exceptional. He was so interesting and answered any questions we had about the Everglades. Amazing experience from start to finish and we can’t wait to bring our kids and friends to join us next time! Thank you!

Fantastic tour - Having done an airboat tour before at Everglades city, this was by far the best way to see the wildlife and surroundings. We had a fab tour guide called Lyle? (we think, apologies if wrong?!) who went above and beyond to answer our many questions. You could hear his wealth of experience and his love and kindness for the area he lives and works in. It was great to hear about all the animals and birds and we even managed to find dolphins! I would highly reccomend this tour and guide. Hopefully one day we will get to come back to the Everglades!

Couldn’t have decided for a better tour! - We saw right at the start an alligator and we didn‘t have to wait long to see two dolphins! 🐬 For the rest of the tour we saw a baby raccoon and lots of different birds and crabs. The boat was very comfortable and Lyle, the captain told us a lot of things about the area and the animals. He could see a animal from far far away! All together was the trip really worth it.
