Everglades Express from Fort Lauderdale Tour

Experience the wilderness of Florida’s famous wetlands on the Everglades from Fort Lauderdale Tour with See Sight Tours. This 4-hour long, small group tour begins with a comfortable hotel pick-up in an air-conditioned Mercedes Metris van. From the moment your local guide picks you up from your hotel, the experience is hassle-free, allowing you to simply relax and explore one of North America’s most iconic ecosystems.

Your first destination is Sawgrass Recreation Park. The park used to be a small fishing camp but now it has become an attraction for those who want to explore the wildlife in the Everglades. It is located on the edge of the vast marshlands of Florida introducing visitors to its biodiversity and cultural richness. Once we reach the park, you will get ready for the most anticipated experience of this site; airboat ride. The ride is both exhilarating and educational as you might spot alligators, native birds, and turtles while your guide shares insights about the complex ecosystem of these subtropical wetlands.

Your airboat ride ends at the Reptile Sanctuary which is a home to over 50 rescued and adopted reptiles. At the sanctuary, you'll see various species of tortoises, iguanas, and snakes. The highlight of this site is the Florida Alligator exhibit, where you can safely observe these majestic creatures up close.

After the reptile sanctuary, you will stop for a bite to eat at The Gator Grill. It's the park’s onsite food truck serving up Everglades-themed items like gator bites, classic burgers and tacos. Right next door is the Gator Emporium which is a small gift shop offering snacks, drinks, and locally themed souvenirs to commemorate your visit to Everglades.

At the end of your Everglades Express from Fort Lauderdale tour, your guide will escort you back to your hotel in a comfortable ride, wrapping up an enriching day trip. Whether you’re a nature enthusiast, curious traveler, or just looking for something different to do in Fort Lauderdale, the Everglades Express is a well-rounded experience that offers adventure, education, and a taste of the wild—without leaving comfort behind.
