Miami: Everglades Airboat Adventure Tour + Biscayne

Set out from Miami for an Everglades adventure that combines the wild beauty of Florida’s wetlands with the excitement of an airboat ride. This shared tour is ideal for travelers who want to experience the region’s rich ecology without venturing far from the city. Round-trip transportation is provided from select Miami pickup points, making it easy to join whether you’re staying in Miami Beach or Downtown.

You’ll begin with hotel pickup on Miami Beach’s Collins Avenue or at Bayside Marketplace in Downtown. A knowledgeable local guide will provide commentary in English and Spanish during your drive, introducing you to the Everglades’ importance and setting the stage for your visit. The journey takes you west toward the edge of this vast subtropical wilderness, where your adventure in the park begins.

Upon arrival at the Everglades, you’ll meet expert Native American guides who will lead your group on a 30 to 40-minute airboat ride through the winding waterways. As you glide over sawgrass marshes and through open wetlands, your guide will point out alligators, native birds, and other wildlife that thrive in this remarkable ecosystem. You’ll learn about the Everglades’ unique habitats and the animals that inhabit them, all while taking in the scenery from a thrilling vantage point.

After your airboat journey, the experience continues with an educational crocodile wildlife show. Here, you’ll get a closer look at some of the park’s most famous residents while hearing about the conservation efforts that protect them. The tour wraps up with time to absorb the atmosphere of the park before boarding your transport for the return trip to Miami.
