Miami: Everglades National Park Guided Tour + Airboat Ride from South Beach

About this experience

This guided tour departs from South Beach, Miami, and combines a 30-minute airboat ride through the Everglades with a live alligator wildlife show, returning participants to their starting point the same day. Everglades National Park covers over 1.5 million acres of subtropical wetlands in southern Florida, and the sawgrass waterways visited on this tour are among the most wildlife-dense sections of the park. The full outing runs approximately five hours from pickup to drop-off. A coach collects guests from 305 Lincoln Road in South Beach and transfers them directly to the park entrance. On the water, a local guide leads the airboat through sawgrass channels where alligators of varying sizes, soft-shelled turtles, and wading birds found only in this ecosystem are regularly spotted. After the ride, a nature talk and hands-on alligator show covers the species' near-extinction and its recovery from the endangered list. Tickets include the airboat ride, roundtrip transfers from South Beach, the wildlife show, and guide commentary throughout. Gratuities and hotel pickup are not included. The tour operates with wheelchair access, and a flexible cancellation policy applies before the confirmed date. For more things to do in the wider region, see Orlando attractions.
