    by Katmosphere
    The Everglades are a really unique enviornment, hike on one of the nature trails and see an amazing amount of alligators and birds. The Indian villiages are also nice places to visit, native crafts and an interesting insight into their heritage. An airboat ride through the glades is a must for anyone visiting the Everglades.

  • For tourists wishing to catch an insiders glimpse of Miami and it's outlying areas and, with limited time on their hands, this company offers a variety of tours, including Coral Gables, Ft. Lauderdale, Viscaya, Coconute Grove and the Everglades.
    Albeit, hurried and fast paced, it is good at giving you the highlights and offers good guides with good knowledge of the area.

    They also offer a popular combination tour which offers the highlights of Miami as well as the Everglades.
    At USD $70.00 (approximately), is a good bargain, considering the every rising costs of entry into the Everglades National Park!

    Coopertown-Florida Everglades
    by maryellen50
    I booked an afternoon trip to the Florida Everglades at a location approx 1 hour from downtown Miami called "Coopertown". This was the highlight of my Miami layover. This location does only small groups on the airboats. Guide was extremely knowledgeable about the flora and fauna and animals of the Everglades. We saw several adult and juvenile alligators along with many birds and various turtle species all within a short area. It was wonderful!

    I suggest that you will go to watch this man put his hand on the tongue ('tung' like 'fun') of an alligator. It is very fast and strong. I liked the show because the show was risky.. maybe the man will lose ('luuuuz') his hand. Maybe the alligator will break his hand or bite him.
    The show is exciting. There is a risk that a man will be hurt. It is fun to watch!

  • Directions: It is in Florida City, which is near the bridge for the Keys. It is about 40 km southwest from Miami.

    Take a ride south to Everglades National Park. Drive through the park, stop at the viewpoints and walk through the swamp. Perfect location to watch animals like alligators or birds.

    The tour after you go to the alligator show is great. The airboat guy will take you to see the flat grass of the Everglades.
    The speed is terrific.

  • Directions: Southwest of Miami, near Florida City, ... just ask for the Everglades National park. The airboat ride is near there.

    The Everglades: Awesome!

  • Well-worth the trip! Amazing place... wow! We saw manatees, dolphins, alligators, birds, and turtles! Such a neat place. The kids loved it. We took an airboat ride thru the Everglades. (We've done it several years in a row now) The tour guides are very educational the most part and we always end up learning a lot. Bring a camera to film the wildlife and your family's smiling faces! Usually the tours offer snacks and drinks on board, as well. If you love nature, you'll love the Everglades! It's much better than going to a zoo or aquarium!
