Your Everglades Experience begins in Miami, where you will be collected by our special Big Bus coach. You'll journey out to the Everglades Holiday Park, a 50-minute drive away within the Everglades Natural Park. First up is a journey through the famed 'river of grass' on a unique Florida airboat, complete with live guide and complimentary pre-journey photo. On the airboat, your guide will point out wildlife like turtles, birds and alligators. 

The experience concludes with a wildlife show where you will see alligators expertly handled by keepers using traditional Seminole Indian techniques.
