Excellent boat tour - A two hour boat tour of some of the national park run by Captain Dan, Carl and Athena. All were very knowledgeable and super friendly and pointed out as much wildlife as possible whilst also talking us through the history of the Everglades and the ecosystem there. Athena was an excellent and funny guide and kept us entertained. We saw plenty of different birds, some dolphins and even a gator on the way back to dock. It’s a beautiful park and we had a lovely day for it too. It’s great that you can freely move about the boat to get different views and follow the wildlife - would highly recommend.

Great Boat Tour - We enjoyed the boat tour with Captain Dan and Carl. We learned a lot about the history of Everglade City and about the wildlife in the area. Saw some birds, dolphins and an alligator. Bring water or buy some in the check in area/shop before you leave.

Outstanding - We took our nine year old granddaughter on the Ten Thousand Island Boat Tour July 24, 2024.. It was absolutely wonderful. The birds were beautiful and we had the pleasure of seeing many, many dolphins swimming in and around the boat. It was a nice, smooth ride. The Captain was very, very informative and kind to everyone! We very much enjoyed the boat ride.

Lovely experience! - The tour was well organized, we left on time and the boat was spacious, with comfortable seating. You can move around, which is great when you’re trying to spot wildlife. Animal sightings are not guaranteed, but we saw many birds, a few alligators and many dolphins from a small distance. The highlight was a huge, beautiful sea turtle right by the boat. The guides went out of their way to look for dolphins when we couldn’t find them on their usual spot.

Best boat ride with amazing Captain and First Mate! Fun, funny, & great for the kids! - AMAZING! Captain Dan and Mate Carl were phenomenal! They were so kind and really funny! The kids felt welcomed and had a blast! The young lady at the check in made me feel so calm and welcomed! The 10am is the best to avoid the heat. Getting there early to sit down n the first picnic tables to be ready to board and sit all the way in the front at the front tip of the boat is the best view despite having no back support. Later you can move around the boat and enjoy all views. We spotted several dolphins, a sea turtle, pink flamingos, an alligator and more! The ride was so smooth and I didn’t feel motion sickness at all despite my sensitivity. Take my word for it!

Amazing Everglades National Park Tour - This was one of the best tours we've ever done. The entire tour, from booking to checking in to seeing a portion of the Everglades National Park, was excellent. Captain Donnie was incredibly knowledgeable about the Park's History, how Everglades City has been impacted over time, the Park's environment, and ongoing efforts to keep it one of our best National Parks. Highly recommend taking this tour.

Average experience for the NP - The view was average. The tour guides were friendly although I don't think the tour is as customised as I expected it be. There seems to be a set route, which makes sense, but one really does not expect to see wildlifes (except for dolphins) in the middle of the water...

Would not go again - May have been a bad time to go but all we saw were some dolphins and egrets which we have seen so many times at home in New Jersey for free,
