We loved the airboat ride through the Everglades! Saw an alligator and a tree filled with vultures. A fascinating area. Would definitely do it again!! more

The airboats with cover. Loved that. Especially since we wet tere in the middle of the day, and the weather was beautiful. The heat and humidy was exhausting, so we were glad we went with this tour instead of the others. The guides were very knowledgeable (one was even telling me the names of the local birds splashing around at... more

I recently moved to So.Fl and do not live too far from Holiday Park so three of us went over mid week, thinking it would be quiet. Anything but...my adult daughter reminded me that kids were off for mxas break, so maybe that is why the crowds. Checking in was very odd. As I said it was packed so we... more

A 30 min airboat tram ride and the gator show were the best part of visiting Ft Lauderdale. For anyone who goes to the area and wants to experience gators, herons, and other wildlife up close and personal this is a really fun tour. The guides are passionate and knowledgeable about the wildlife and the vegetation there. They truly love... more

Good trip to take in the middle of the day when the sun is too hot for the beach in the summer. We did see a gator up close, 1st time in 3 trips to various parts of the Everglades. Be sure to stop in to the Gator show afterwards. Some of the stunts the guys performs is downright scary. more

I did the 1 hour airboat ride and saw the brief gator show after which was ok. What made this experience worthwhile was seeing two gators in the swamp- not sure it would have been worth it had I not seen them. Otherwise, it's just a bunch of trees and birds. Didn't like that the tour guide begged for tips-... more

We went to Everglades Holiday Park looking for something different to do on a somewhat rainy day. We all had a great time, granted it is somewhat of a tourist trap, we all came away with great pictures and even better memories of this place. The guide we had was very good at finding all sorts of wildlife including an... more

It was exactly what we were looking for -- Old School Florida, an authentically funky place, and a fine value for the money. It's totally non plastic, but clean and friendly. The food shop isn't overpriced. It's a good, long boat ride, and the scenery is beautfiul. Our guide had a microphone and we could hear everything, and he stopped... more
