About this experience

If so, please join us in our 17th year of business on our award-winning 2 hour kayaking adventure with the most comfortable and stable boats on the market. This Everglades Safari/ kayaking adventure is best location for a great introductory paddle into this mesmerizing freshwater ecosystem and the mangrove tunnels. Our Professional naturalist guides will take you to seldom seen parts of the Everglades where you’ll paddle past cypress trees laden with dangling Spanish moss, alligators sunning on the side of the river, and birds looking for lunch. This freshwater river is, hands down, the best place to see wildlife in Southwest Florida with three different ecosystems in one tour. This trip is an excellent choice for families with younger children, people in a time crunch for dinner plans or longer drive back to Miami or Naples, and people that can't sit down for more than two hours.
