We had a brilliant time. Our tour bus driver was very good. He chatted to us most of the time telling us really interesting facts about the Space Centre and the space rockets.
The Everglades Airboat ride was also fun. We spotted plenty of alligators and eagles etc. A really good, value for money day out.

I had a wonderful time, the weather was nice and the tour guides were just as nice. Learned a lot about Alligator's that I didn't know. Worth doing again!

Doing what: Miami Combo Tour: City Sightseeing, Biscayne Bay Cruise and Everglades Airboat Ride
The itinerary was excellent and it provides a very good overview of the different nabourhoods of Miami. The pick-up at my hotel was also excellently done. It bothered me however that all the tour guides were so obsessed about their tips/gratuities and they mentioned that throughout the whole tour/trip!!

Doing what: Miami Combo Tour: City Sightseeing, Biscayne Bay Cruise and Everglades Airboat Ride
You get a comprehensive bus tour of the major Miami areas (downtown, Coral Gables, Coconut Grove, Miami Beach) with lots of information. Then you get a quick stop in Little Havana (we had 20 min). Of course we had to grab some food there. Had an excellent Cuban sandwich. Would have liked more time in Little Havana but we made the most of our 20 min (sandwich and potty break). After that we got a boat ride on Biscayne bay. The tour said yacht ride. Not a yacht. But it was a boat and it was a beautiful boat ride. Saw lots of celebrity homes on the bay. Then we got back on the bus for the trip to the Everglades. It poured once we got there (so bring ponchos unless you want to buy them there). The rain didn't stop us from having a blast. It started with an alligator show. We all got to see a teeny tiny alligator and then got to watch the trainer with a bigger alligator. After that, we got to go on an airboat ride that was one of the highlights of my trip. The rain was pelting us in the face because of the speed of the boat but it was still fun. The captain did turns and went fast and it was amazing. We saw 3 alligators and a snake or two. What an amazing part of the country!

Great tour. Few comments: bus was ran down, rain was pouring but - guides were great, we saw Miami in nutshell! Had blast at Everglades.
The funniest thing was that 2 weeks after we were on this tour we got a call to get outside of the hotel as bus is waiting for us! we would love to join tour again, but long time returned home.

Doing what: Miami Combo Tour: City Sightseeing, Biscayne Bay Cruise and Everglades Airboat Ride
With one full day before our cruise, we decided to get the most out of Miami and this tour did just that.. Though our hotel wasn't on the list of hotel pick-up, the CSR gave us a nearest location to meet and get picked up.. From there, we went around and pick up all other tourists and set off for Everglades.. The airboat was fun, the show was fun and informative.. Afterwards, we're taken back for the hq for the 2nd/3rd part of the tour.. The city tour was nice, as the tour guide was knowledgeable and keep us well informed and awake.. The bay cruise tour was a nice touch; the captain showed us all the celebrity mansions and pointed out all the attractions.. Overall, it's a great get-to-know-a-new-place kind of tour and 9 hours went by just like that..

Doing what: Florida Everglades Swamp Excursion and Airboat Ride
There were only 6 passengers on the trip. Our guide was very knowledgable about all the wildlife. We were lucky enough to see several alligators, two water snakes, an American Bald Eagle and various rare birds. All were seen close up.
A value for money trip.

Doing what: Swim with Manatees at Crystal River plus Everglades Airboat Adventure
We had a great time! We came in one of the best months (March) to see the manatees. The water was a cool 72 degF (22.2 degC). We recommend renting a wetsuit at the shop ($10). There were dozens of manatees to photograph and pet. The Homomassa Wildlife Park was fun to visit, and we had a great time on the airboat ride. We even got to hold a baby alligator! The bus trip to and from the different locations was enjoyable. Breakfast and lunch was included. We would highly recommend this excursion to anyone.

Doing what: Miami Day Trip and Florida Everglades Airboat Ride
This trip to Miami is definitely worth the price. The continental breakfast baggie is ample and the guide is so helpful, knowledgable and funny! I loved South Beach and the cruise and wanted to stay there longer. It's a long day but a great day. Also, the choice of movies on the bus were perfect as I hadn't seen any of them:-)
