About this tour
Set out on a guided Florida backcountry hike through a landscape of wetlands, prairies, tropical forests, and sandy trails. This five-hour trek offers a closer look at the ecosystems and scenery beyond the usual routes.
Meet your guide at the starting location, then walk to a nearby local cafe, shop, or other spot before heading to the trailhead. Along the way, explore streams, campsites, scenic vistas, and backcountry roads while your guide points out local plants, animals, and habitats. The hike starts early to account for Florida’s heat and sun. Staged water drops, extra water, and a water filter help support the trek, and your guide will share a link for real-time location viewing before departure. A dehydrated backpacking meal snack is included.
Florida Backcountry Guided Hike ends at another local hotspot or park, depending on weather and the client. Lace up for a guided day outdoors and discover the varied terrain of Florida’s wild backcountry.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 2 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 West Palm Beach
- 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 7.2.
