I just returned from my Everglades tour and even tho it rained, I had a GREAT time (the rain made being in the Everglades that much more exciting)!! I want to thank our tour guide (i forgot his name...sorry) for allowing us to wait out the down pour & enjoy ourselves!! Even through the rain, I was able to capture some excellent shots of the alligators in the water as we passed through!! I went on this tour by myself, but will DEFINITELY be booking again when my fam & friends come back down to MIA with me. Stay blessed & thanks again. -

Hello Michelle; I‘m writing to you to tell you about my Miami Tour experiences. My wife and I took the Everglades Tour and the next day we took the Miami Tour. We had a wonderful time on each tour and found them to be very relaxing and informative. I would also like to let you know how wonderful our Miami Tour host was during the trips. In each case we had Jorge Torres. He was very knowledgeable, very personable, and tried to please everybody. I believe he made the experience more enjoyable. Please pass our best wishes to him and knowledge in front of his peers how much we appreciated his effort. We are the couple for New Hampshire. Regards

We had a great trip out to the Everglades and the wild animal park. Your tour host was fantastic, fun to visit with, knowledgible, and very professional. We highly recommend Miami Tour Company and the trip into the Everglades with the air-boat ride. This was great. -

I took the Everglades tour last week and thoroughly enjoyed the experience! The tour bus picked me up spot on time and the organization was very efficient. The airboat ride was great fun! We even saw a family of baby alligators. My driver Eddy Torres was very kind and courteous and came looking for me when I nearly missed the bus back! Very nice experience! Thank you!
