Laura_A, Jul 2026

Camden is terrific!

We had a great airboat tour. Camden showed us two momma alligators (I named them Angela and Gloria) both guarding their nests full of eggs. And he explained that Gloria had cracked Jimmy’s shell (a really big turtle) when he tried to get to her eggs, and then she had herself a jimmy snack. He also found a bird nest where three of the six eggs hatched just in the last couple of hours! Super cool. The entire tour was relaxing with beautiful scenery. Highly recommend the tour company and Camden. Would go again tomorrow if we could.

Well worth the tour!

We had a great experience at Everglades Holiday Park. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and made the whole visit enjoyable from start to finish. A special thank you to our airboat captain, Ana. She was knowledgeable, engaging, and did an excellent job spotting wildlife that many of us would have completely missed. She took the time to explain the animals, their behaviors, and the Everglades ecosystem in a way that was interesting and easy to understand. You can tell Ana genuinely enjoys what she does, and her enthusiasm made the tour even better. We saw alligators, turtles, and a variety of birds, and learned so much about the Everglades along the way. The combination of a fun airboat ride, great wildlife sightings, and Ana’s expertise made for a memorable experience. Highly recommend Everglades Holiday Park to anyone visiting the area.

Sunset with nature

Friday afternoon traffic “is tricky at best” from Orlando. We made it per the 1 hr arrival in advance request. Brandon and his father were great tour guides. Appreciated their efforts to stop fjr wild life and their personal history. An ideal sunset cruise and fun way to experience a airboat too! If they can make access to beverages prior to boarding an option - it would complete the “10” rating!

Wholesome exciting experience

I’m not going to lie we was nervous at first but the person who checked in was so cool he even let us hold the alligator and take pictures, he even gave us history about the waters and alligators and their upbringing it was very fascinating, to be honest I loved it. My daughter was really nervous but he made sure to make her feel very good and calmed her and she held the alligator that was really cool as well, I give this place 10 stars, also that boat was so loud but I still enjoyed it

Just Do It

If you’re thinking about visiting the Everglades, DO IT AND DO IT WITH THESE GUYS! Seriously, me and my partner wanted a short but amazing Everglades tour and that is exactly what we got. Wyatt was our guide and he was so welcoming, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable about the glades. Not only did we get to see this natural wonder, but we learned a lot too! I truly cannot recommend this experience more! Also, hot tip, if you don’t have a car or rental car — rent a car for the day to get to and from the Everglades since driving is really the only way to get there!

Excellent morning...

Excellent morning adventure! We saw a couple large male gators, several up close and personal females sunbathing and even a baby gator. Saw way too many birds to mention; except several very large great blue herons and white egrets. Our guide made sure to make stops along the way to see anything we could get closer to seeing and provided lots of information as well as answer any questions. Perfect morning and our guide was the best 10/10 recommend!!!!

Must-Do Experience in Miami

Fantastic way to get out of the hustle and bustle of Miami and to enjoy one of the most unique, natural areas in the world. The Everglades encompasses many different ecosystems, so you see a wild variety of animals and vegetation. Armando, our tour guide, taught us ecology, history, and culture, all with a great attitude and sense of humor. We learned so much, and my kids had a great time.

Fantastic Airboat Tour

We had a very enjoyable tour through the Everglades. Our tour guide Brian was very informative about the wildlife and the Everglades. He carried water on board and asked if we were comfortable with the speed. He answered any questions we had and was just very friendly. We would do this again!

Great way to spend a few hours in Miami

Great way to spend part of upgrading day in Miami, especially if you are short on time. Pick up and drop off from your hotel in a comfortable vehicle with a great guide ( we had Christian who was terrific!). The boat ride through the Everglades was amazing and the gator show was very entertaining Highly recommend!

Chris Rocks

Chris was awesome! He was incredibly knowledgeable about everything Everglades and answered all of our questions and gave us tons of info. At one point, he stopped the airboat and jumped into the water to show us a turtle! He went on to explain how he spotted it, told us the type, and told us what else we can be on the lookout for. We saw alligators, an alligator nest, a grasshopper, so many fish, birds, and more turtles. Chris also showed us where to find worms to use as bait if you were to fish when in the Everglades. You could absolutely tell he loves what he does and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Thanks Chris!
