About this tour
Trade Miami's cityscape for a full day in the wild landscapes of the Everglades. On this Miami Everglades Day Safari, a naturalist or biologist guide brings the region's waterways, forests, and wildlife into focus.
Ride an airboat through Everglades National Park, then travel by narrated van through Big Cypress National Preserve. Stretch your legs on a nature walk beneath towering cypress trees before boarding a boat for a cruise through mangrove-lined waters, where you may spot manatees, dolphins, sharks, and other wildlife. Lunch at a waterside restaurant and a visit to historic Smallwood's Store Museum round out the day. Travel between stops in an air-conditioned 13-passenger van, with pickup and drop-off from select listed hotel locations.
The Miami Everglades Day Safari lasts about nine hours. Bring a hat, sunscreen, and sunglasses, and book your place for a guided journey through South Florida's remarkable wilderness.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.81 from 21 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in Miami
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.1.
