We had a very friendly guide who knows a lot about the alligators and the local history. Also the alligators and the park were very beautiful. We also got a lot of useful information on the wildlife show. They have good icecream too. It was a unforgettable experience.

Our guide Walker picked us up directly from our hotel, and he was an excellent guide from start to finish. He is very knowledgeable about the Everglades and shared a lot of interesting information with us during the drive and throughout the tour. The entire experience was smooth, informative, and enjoyable. Highly recommended!
