Description

The Everglades Day Safari is Florida's premier Everglades eco-tour, providing daily excursions to the Everglades since 1992. Everglades Day Safari offers tours from the east coast (Ft. Lauderdale area) as well as the west coast (Sanibel/Ft. Myers/Naples area) of Florida. Travelers with Everglades Day Safari adventure into the four major Everglades ecosystems during their day-long exploration, including the sawgrass prairie, mangrove estuary, cypress swamp, and the savannah. Exploration is on foot, by airboat, by pontoon boat, and in air-conditioned vehicles. Hungry explorers are offered delicious alligator appetizers as well as an assortment of lunch choices during your stop in Everglades City. The trips are guided by a renowned team of naturalists, from doctors of ornithology to herpetologists who expertly escort explorers into one of the most beautiful and unique places on earth--the Everglades. All wildlife is truly wild and therefore every excursion is different and exciting. At various times throughout the year, travelers will see manatee, bald eagles, swallow-tailed kites and roseate spoonbills among many other species of wildlife. Bottle-nosed dolphins and American alligators are seen regularly and all in their natural habitat.
