Everglades Day Trip from Miami
Miami, Florida Keys
About This Activity

Group airboat tours start at $29/person including round-trip transportation, park admission, and a wildlife show. Semi-private tours run ~$60/person. Spot alligators, anhingas, and wading birds as you glide through the River of Grass.
