The Everglades is the largest remaining natural subtropical wilderness in North America. Alligators, anhingas, and even the elusive Florida panther make their home just 45 minutes west of downtown Miami. Only 150 years ago, all of South and Central Florida looked like this thriving marshland.
This special tour by Miami Nice Tours includes entrance to the Everglades Outpost Wildlife Refuge and the Alligator Farm as well as an airboat ride. Get first-hand, up close and personal contact with many native and exotic animals at the Wildlife Refuge—exotic birds, alligators, crocodiles, and the largest collection of venomous snakes in South Florida. The Everglades Alligator Farm is a real working alligator farm with literally thousands of alligators. The tour ends with an airboat ride—the only way to see this “river of grass” since normal boats can’t navigate the Everglade’s average three-foot depths.
