Moerasbootsafari door de Everglades

Great guide and we got VERY close to a couple of alligators that were used to being fed from the boat captain. They provide ear protection {thank goodness} and make the traveling fun, including some "drifting" at good speeds on corners. Might have liked the ride to be a bit longer. Well done show afterwards which is worth taking in. Nice store, albeit a bit pricey. It was so hot that we didn't mind the $3 water.

Exept the Bus-Transfer to the (wrong) Alligator Camp, nothing worked out. No one was aware about our booking for a private tour. We paid a Transfer to another Alligator-Park (based on Infos given by first park) and also there, no one knew anything about our Reservation. Contacting your Office by mail didn't help either: "everything is fine, you just have to go to the bus-Station" which was 1 hour back to Miami. We paid the whole private tour again directly in the second park and waisted several hours. It was an waste of Money (paying double) and a waste of time, as we lost the whole afternoon on this Holiday, which was actually planned for another Event - NEVER AGAIN!!

The airboat Safari was really fun and is a must see if you go to Miami. But you do not need to book it through Viator who uses Miami Double Decker, who were terrible. The Everglades is only about 35 to 40 minutes south of Miami so if you are renting a car, go there yourself and book the safari with Gator Park directly. The tour consists of an airboat ride with an informative local guide and a gator show at the end. The bad review is for Miami Double Decker. All they provided was the ride to Gator Park. We were told to check in at 1:00 pm for a 1:30 pm trip. We showed up much earlier, checked in. Then the bus was very late, did not show up until 2:15 pm. We stood in the rain for over 1.5 hours. Finally we were all loaded onto the bus, then the bus went all around town including the cruise port to pick up more passengers. We finally reached Gator Park after 4pm! The guide on the bus kept blatantly asking for tips and all he did on the ride over was point out Miami Airport and the Baseball Stadium. Everglades is a must, but skip this excursion and go yourself. You will save several hours of frustration and being treated like a dumb tourist.

A great experience and a good value. The tour bus takes you from Miami Beach to Gator Park, about 45 minutes west. We took an airboat tour and saw several alligators. Our guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining. The animal show was fun and engaging. I definitely recommend it!

This was a fun trip and well organized. We saw about four gators on our boat ride, one of which swam only a few feet away from our boat! The boat ride through the Everglades was very enjoyable.The alligator show was very informative and the crocodiles in park confinement looked well taken after. All the staff were entertaining and professional. The double decker bus ride was comfortable and provided great views of the city. The drop off back at the hotel could have been better arranged as there was over an hour to wait for a ride- we ended up taking the free city Trolley instead.
