Explore With An Everglades Airboat Tour Miami Area

By Ladonna Franklin


You could not possibly have a vacation in Miami without taking a trip through the world famous Everglades. The Everglades National Park is one of only a few sites of this kind to be awarded World Heritage status. The only way to see what the park has to offer and its sometimes unusual inhabitants, is to sign up with one of the operators for their everglades airboat tour Miami.

Trips into the everglades are very popular with tourists. Start your everglades tour with a sightseeing look around Miami, or finish up with the wildlife show, or a visit to the farm for alligators. Choosing from the list of combined activities should allow you to benefit and save, while you have the opportunity to enjoy two separate experiences.

Particularly, during peak vacation periods the airboat trips are extremely busy. If you want to be sure of a trip on the airboat, it is advisable to book at least twenty four hours beforehand. You can book select your trip options on the internet, make your booking and pay using a credit or debit card. Alternatively, you can ask your travel agent to book your excursion on your behalf. Take note that tour operators state clearly in their terms and conditions that one you purchase tickets, you will not receive a refund if you cancel.

Always take time to read any information you receive about your excursion. The information will cover safe practices and safety precautions necessary for your trip. The majority is common sense, but it helps to have a gentle reminder, especially when it involves your child's safety. You will also find information about suitable clothing and the type of foot-wear that is not allowed.

It is recommended that you carry a bottle of cold water for drinking. Operators do carry a free supply of bottled water for passengers, but there are no other refreshments available. You are not encouraged to take along snacks, because it could encourage some unwelcome attention from the glades inhabitants.

The information leaflet you will receive for your trip on the airboat will give you an introduction to the wildlife and their natural habitat which you are about to visit. You may be familiar with many of the species, but there are a number that do not exist anywhere else. It may be your once in a life-time chance to photograph some of these unique creatures, so make sure you have plenty of spare film in your pocket.

Throughout your excursion you will be accompanied by an experienced and knowledgeable guide. They will tell you some of the interesting facts about the inhabitants and their environment. They will point out good photo opportunities and will happily answer any questions.

There is a limitation on the number of bodies an everglades airboat tour Miami area can accommodate. If you are thinking of booking a private excursion, check with the operator to ensure they can accommodate the number in your party. A private excursion will allow you to spend more time exploring this unique subtropical environment and studying its inhabitants, including those you will not find anywhere else.

  2. I am a first-time visitor on your blog, & I really enjoyed it very much. The Everglades remain a wonderful and wild place to explore for you and other Americans. The Everglades is a huge area, and part of it borders the great city of Miami, from which a number of Everglades tours can be booked or chartered. Especially popular are the fast and adventurous airboat tours.
