Go deep into Big Cypress National Preserve on a small-group wet walk led by a Florida Master Naturalist, then take an hour-long boat trip through the Ten Thousand Islands of Everglades National Park. With a naturalist guide you will identify plants and animals throughout the day, you’ll watch for rare orchids, bromeliads, manatees, dolphins, and the many birds that thrive in Florida’s vast swamps.

The full-day tour includes transport from greater Fort Lauderdale and Miami, making it a great way to explore Florida’s fascinating ecosystems even with limited time.
