Description:

Journey into the Florida Everglades and walk in the footsteps of a naturalist guide. Encounter the variety and abundance of plant and animal life that thrive in this natural preserve.

Embark on your leisurely paced walking tour into the heart of the Florida Everglades. Following your passionate guide, explore many of the wonders that make up the wetlands. Witness the many varieties of plants and animals and discuss the natural history of the Everglades, including the last 120 years of human impact on the ecosystem.

Because each tour is unique, you may come across an endangered orchid in bloom, or even see fresh tracks from an elusive Florida panther or black bear. Encounters with white-tailed deer, red-shouldered hawks, barred owls, pileated woodpeckers, egrets, herons, alligators, and water reptiles are always a possibility.
