Wild Lime Adventures

Fun and educational day Great experience! Ryan, our guide was super knowledgeable and fun to spend the day with. The airport ride was awesome, we saw many alligators very close up. It was so fun to see them in their natural habit. I highly recommend this tour.

Amazing Experience What an amazing experience! Our guide Ryan is very knowledgeable of the rich history of this area. I would definitely do this again!

Full Service Outstanding Tour! Full service experience! Everything from hotel pickup to drop off was included. That includes sunscreen, insect repellent, drinks, snacks, admission to the park and a great tour! I highly recommend this tour. Ben and Ryan were courteous, knowledgeable, friendly and great hosts. I highly recommend this tour!

Fantastic experience Fabulous Everglades tour with Ben, who was knowledgeable and engaging. Our kids loved it and enjoyed hearing all about the wildlife and seeing gators and turtles etc. thoroughly recommend!

Awesome Everglades experience On time pickup which is always a great start. Stacey introduced us to the group and was knowledgeable, informative and engaging. We had plenty of restroom stops where Stacey answered all questions about flora/fauna. Weather hampered the end of the day but no complaints. Would highly recommend!

Excellent The tour was really good. We saw a range of different wonderful animals and it was lovely to be out in the nature. All the guides were extremely knowledgable and friendly.

Fantastic day out from Miami This was a fantastic day out. Ben the guide was knowledgeable and attentive. The hotel pick up worked smoothly and he was happy to drop us at the ball park at the end of the day. We loved all parts of the trip: the airboat ride, the cruise out to the islands, and the nature walk. And lunch was really good also! Highly recommended if you’re in Miami for a holiday.

Absolutely amazing!!!!!!! This trip was one of the biggest highlights of my vacation! If you like nature, wildlife, culture and adventure this is definitely the excursion for you! Every detail was taken care of by been our tour guide. From making sure to all of our needs being met, to being extremely knowledgeable and very personable, he couldn’t have been any better!

Awesome! My favorite part of the journey was cruising over the Everglades in the airboat. Our tour guide was educated and very informative about the history of the Everglades. If you are looking for a day excursion that's filled with a fun adventure.. most definitely pick this trip!

Incredible large group tour experience! Go! My school takes 22-30 students each year on a National Parks trip. This year we chose Wild Lime Adventures to plan and lead our tour to the Everglades and Dry Tortugas. We chose right. Ben, the owner, was very responsive as we communicated back and forth about what we were looking for. Our trip was a Wed-Mon with four full days of adventure planned.

This year we chose Wild Lime Adventures to plan and lead our tour to the Everglades and Dry Tortugas. We chose right. Ben, the owner, was very responsive as we communicated back and forth about what we were looking for. Our trip was a Wed-Mon with four full days of adventure planned.

Our guides were Lindsay and Darren. They were full service. They picked us up at the airport and stayed with us the entire tour. They each have degrees in the science and are extremely knowledgeable about the vegetation, wildlife, and parks. We had 11 people on each van and had room for our luggage. ( 1 suitcase and backpack each).

Day one: Everything Everglades. A wet walk through a cypress dome, a 90 boat ride through the 10,000 islands mangrove forest.

Day two: drive to key west. Along the way we stopped at the Wild Bird Sanctuary, Robbie’s fish camp, and Bahia Honda State park. Once we arrived in Key West we visited the Ernest Hemingway house, the African Slave Memorial and the Southernmost Point.

Day three: Dry Tortugas National Park. This is a full day experience that you should hands down try if you ever have the opportunity. The snorkeling is unreal. The water was so clear!

Day four: we drove back to Fort Lauderdale. We had a kayak tour through mangrove channels and did a 1 hour snorkeling tour of Hens and Chickens reef. The snorkeling was out of this world! The fish and coral we saw was absolutely incredible. The kayak adventure was relaxing and thoroughly enjoyable as well.

Day five: Airboat ride through Everglades sawgrass. We met “Gar” the gator and saw a lot of wildlife.

Our meals were planned at local favorites. If you are ever in Florida City/Homestead please go visit Fonda Familiar Mexican. We also ate at City Hall Bistro. In Key West we ate at El Siboney and Dante’s.

Our all inclusive experience with Wild Lime was top notch! You won’t be worry. Lindsay was my van driver and I cannot compliment her enough. She was professional, fun and informative!!! Our students had the trip of a lifetime. Darren, the driver of the other van, was kind, calm and so helpful. He always put our needs first.

They drove our large group from place to place, kept us safe, and were an absolute joy to be around. Our large group was split in half, and I had Lindsay. Lindsay was one of the most amazing people I’ve ever met, and she was so much fun to be around! The whole trip was so well organized, and we always had time for bathroom breaks, food, and fun! We started our trip with touring the Everglades, and took part in a wet walk. We also visited the beach, state parks, the Hemingway house, took a ferry to Dry Tortugas, snorkeled, kayaked, and did so much more. We got so close with our guides during this trip, and the carpool karaoke sessions were amazing! This trip was one of the best experiences of my life, and Darren and Lindsay helped that! We always felt like a family, and have so many inside jokes already. Wild Lime tour service is something I would recommend from the bottom of my heart, and you would be so lucky to experience the fun! read less

Even Dawgs Like Gators Lindsay and Darren were incredibly organized and knowledgeable guides who catered all excursions to our group’s interests. They handled every detail and were very personable and engaging. They were the best and a large part of what made the trip so awesome.

Great way to explore the Everglades This is a very fun way to explore the Everglades. We drove to the meeting point ourselves, but they also provide a pickup service from your hotel!
The walk was easy and there was so much to see! Our guide Darren was very knowledgeable and passionate about nature and its preservation.

Must do trip to the Everglades What a fantastic day. Informative and so much fun.
Early start pickup (we grabbed a quick breakfast first), we headed off out of Miami along the Tamiami to our first stop which was an airboat ride across the glades watching gators and various local bird species. We got really close to the gators and learned a little about the Miccosukee and Seminole tribes. Our next big stop was at Chololoskee island for a boat trip out into the mangroves.

Our guide Darren was fantastic. We were tired at the end of the trip but we’ll worth it. Strongly recommend. read less

Mr What a phenomenal day out. It wasn't the cheapest tour but it was worth every cent. Guide was knowledgeable and super freindly, lunch stop was great, and all the events were memorable. I got within 2 foot of a gator, and had the most amazing experience with a family of dolphins that raced behind our boat, that was magical. I learnt so much. Honestly this is the best day out I've had in the US.

Great experience! Great experience! Stacy was our guide. She was great from picking us up from the hotel to dropping us off at the airport. The connections they have with local operators who know the area for generations is unparalleled.
Highly recommend!

Highly recommended Everglades Tour What a fabulous day from start to finish! The pre-excursion experience was great, easy booking on Tripadvisor and early contact from Ben to confirm pick up location and clarify available food options. The pick up arrived exactly on time and the minibus was nicely air conditioned. The branded water bottles and chilled water, soft drinks and snacks were a nice touch.

The pick up arrived exactly on time and the minibus was nicely air conditioned. The branded water bottles and chilled water, soft drinks and snacks were a nice touch.

From the first stop we were able to see plenty of alligators in the wild, and this theme continued from crickets to squirrels. There were plenty of stops and mini excursions on the itinerary which made the day fly in.

The highlight was the cruise with Erin (?) a really interesting local captain who’s excellent navigation meant we got to see Roseate Spoonbills up-close and were literally trailed by two dolphins for about five minutes.

Darren, our driver and guide was exceptional. Extremely knowledgeable and patient, despite the heat and all the groups questions. I would definitely recommend this to anyone staying in Miami. read less

Hundreds of birds Great half day trip and guide through the Everglades. We saw herons, turtles, gators, and a huge cluster of spoonbills, storks, and egrets. This was our 3rd tour of the Everglades and Wild Lime was definitely the best experience ever.

They are the best Best I found for this type of trip—best experience for exploring the area, period. Pick-up and drop-off to your hotel/airbnb are awesome, and all the service they provide is amazing. Def recommended to anyone who wanna go to the area. I usually don't write a comment, so this also indicates how nice this is that I'm willing to comment on it.

Great experience Lindsey was a wonderful guide. Got to see wild dolphins and alligators in their natural habitat. Thanks

Wonderful day trip! It was a wonderful excursion to the Everglades. Total time investment was about six hours. The guide was a wildlife biologist and very knowledgeable. The trip was very well organized with breaks for bathroom and snacks. There is about an hour of walking on wooden walkways and pavement. If you have trouble walking, that section of the trip is not for you. The airboat ride was especially beautiful.

One awesome day in the Everglades! Awesome trip with a very knowledgeable naturalist, Darren. I thought the all day trip would be too much time in the sun, but turned out to be perfect. Two different boat rides in two completely different environments really gave my family an understanding and appreciation of the Everglades. If you want to see gators this is the trip to book!

Awesome Amazing experience are tour guide was amazing with a good sense of humor. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who wants to have fun. The tour guide was Lindsay. Also shout out to are airboat driver he was awesome. Don't remember his name but he was a big guy with gold grill

An Everglades Experience It’s amazing when you can LEARN and BE ENTERTAINED at the same time. Darren did a great job giving us lots of info without overwhelming us with facts. His passion for protecting the land and its environs, along with wildlife, made him a good ambassador for this tour. We also loved the airboat ride. The captain was good about letting us take photos when wildlife was sighted.

This well-rounded experience is worth the cost! A fantastic experience. For us a perfect balance of nature, water, interesting and educational information, thrills…and a nice lunch! Our guide Stacey was wonderful--knowledgeable, great at explaining things to us at our level, attentive to the needs and questions of everybody. Felt like having a friend as a traveling partner.
I hope the guides are compensated well, because I noticed that not everyone tips well.
Our TripAdvisor events have been consistently good. Thank you!

Book this tour over the more commercialized ones… This was great! I am obsessed with seeing animals in their natural habitats as much as possible so this tour fits the bill. I thought the full day tour was absolutely worthwhile. We saw many alligators, various bird species, snakes, sawfish, dolphins and more and learned a bit about all of them.

We saw many alligators, various bird species, snakes, sawfish, dolphins and more and learned a bit about all of them. My only bit of feedback is that I would have liked a little more patience and time in viewing the animals when we found them (e.g. just letting the boat coast a little when viewing the dolphins instead of reviving it faster immediately to see them jump by the boat, or stalling out and being silent in one place for a while in the airboat when we came across gators instead of rushing to the next thing). Then again, I could watch animals in their natural habitats in silence for hours and be happy as a clam so maybe others prefer the quicker pace. In no way does this decrease my rating for this company and would definitely go with them again. read less

We were traveling from Nebraska over spring break for a week in the Hollywood, Florida area. I chose Wild Lime Adventures based on their website description and trip advisor reviews.

They love nature!1 When I came to Florida I wanted to experience the diverse ecosystem the state has to offer, but I was concerned about how these tour companies treat nature and wildlife. Wild Lime Adventures cares about nature and respects the wildlife all while showing you everything. No archaic alligator wrestling here, they frown upon it as they should. The guide was super helpful making sure everyone was happy and had what they needed. Would highly recommend for all age groups.

Amazing Nature Tour Ben did an excellent job. He kept us informed of changes, was super friendly and gave a great tour. We were the first on and last off and he was engaged throughout. Fabian was our airboat guide and I was enthralled at his respect and love of the animals. Couldn’t have asked for more. I chose this tour over the other to see the Everglades and their inhabitants and “naturally” as possible. Did not disappoint

Great overview of the Everglades. The experiences are varied and you get to see wild Alligators up close as well as dolphins. The nature hike was hot but even that was worth it with the some of the swampland features. Lunch and transportation w

Fantastic tour experience !!! Absolutely the highlight of our mini getaway! Ben is without a doubt, the best tour guide you could ask for. We saw so many alligators and so much other wildlife - birds, turtles, even an otter crossing our path! Ben is so knowledgeable and made the entire experience unforgettable. My husband and I will definitely come back for another tour, next time we are in Florida.

The perfect way to spend 1/2 day in the Everglades/Big Cypress NP. This was the perfect way to do a short 1/2 day trip that included a 1-Hour Air Boat Ride and Nature Walk with Ben, a Naturalist, in Everglades National Park. We’d been to the park before and done the tram ride but the nature walk with Ben was so much more detailed and informative about the park, the eco-system, plants/trees, and all the animals we encountered.

Fantastic intro to the Everglades We had a fantastic day with Ben and Mike. All the logistics from pick to drop were brilliant, including navigating our trip around a sea food festival! Lot of information on the eco systems and lots of fun. Both boat trips were great, simple but very good lunch and a great walk along boardwalk. Definitely converted us to the beauty of the area and has made us want to come back. Would definitely recommend the whole day trip.

Wild Limes partners with the Miccosukee tribe for the air boat portion of the tour. Seeing the wildlife, especially alligators, on their land was remarkable. The only thing I would suggest is that the management change the paperwork regarding covid precautions they are taking. The company wasn't still doing all of what they said they were. For example, our confirmation said groups were being limited to only six people, but we were put on a van filled to capacity that held about 15 people. They did require masks on the van though. read less

We couldn't believe how much we got to do in one day! The van was comfortable and snacks and water were provided, as well as a full lunch. We really felt that we got our money's worth and would definitely recommend Wild Lime Adventures!

Full Day Everglades with Wet Walk we had an amazing day in the Everglades and Big Cypress with Stacey. Her knowledge of the flora and fauna, enthusiasm and love of the area- all were infectious. We saw alligators, dolphins, egrets, roseate spoonbills, anhingas, and wood storks. We are so glad we took the time to explore this most beautiful part of our country. So close to Miami,yet a world away. Don't miss your opportunity to do this day trip if you are in the area.

Simply Awesome! We absolutely loved our day trip with dry hike to the everglades led by Lindsey. I cannot say enough about her incredible knowledge, cheerfulness, safe driving abilities (especially in Miami) and with a mixed bag of folks (family with three kids two couples and two solo travelers) her ability to make a tour fun for both adults and children alike.

I cannot say enough about her incredible knowledge, cheerfulness, safe driving abilities (especially in Miami) and with a mixed bag of folks (family with three kids two couples and two solo travelers) her ability to make a tour fun for both adults and children alike. The tour had several showstopping highlights including the wonderfully informative dry hike (on a boardwalk so tennis/walking shoes are ok), stops at visitor centers, a historic trading post, and regular boat ride and swamp boat ride towards the end with awesome mirror like sky views on the swamp. Lindsey has an otherworldly ability to spot wildlife which led to some freaking awesome pictures. The tour itself was well planned for comfort, food (the restaurant was great!) snacks, hydration, ear protection, sunscreen, air conditioning when needed.... etc. Lindsey was energetic, witty and so informative (and truly an asset to Wild Lime Tours if I might add.) My husband and I highly recommend this tour! read less

Great Tour of the Everglades Even If You Are Not Visiting the Park for the Frist time My wife and I took this tour and we had a wonderful time. We had visited the park twice before (it is one of our favorite national parks) but our excellent guide Ben made the experience new and enriching. He clearly communicates his love for the park and he has a great sense of humor. We can not recommend this tour enough!

Authentic, Educational, and Fun We spent 10 days in Florida, and this was easily the best thing we did! Stacy was an excellent tour guide, and it is obvious she loves what she does. She has a great knowledge of the ecology and history of the area. Once Stacy found out I'm a bird enthusiast, she happily pointed out all the birds to me - we even saw a very rare Snail Kite!

One of the highlights was the airboat ride from a member of the Miccosukee tribe. Not only was this a ton of fun, but we also were able to learn the history of his tribe and how they lived in the Everglades. Overall, we learned a lot from this tour, and it was a great time! read less

Everglades Wonderful educational tour with a wonderful guide. Darren was knowledgeable and professional. Highly recommend if you are visiting Southern

Wild Lime Adventures is GREAT! Lindsay did a wonderful job of leading us on a nature walk at Shark Valley. She was knowledgeable and fun. The weather forced us to swap a full day tour for a half-day tour. Ben was very accommodating and so courteous about our circumstances. Then, I left my hat on the van and they made arrangements to drop it at a hotel near me so I could pick it up. 5 stars all the way around!

Monday Funday with Wild Lime I would recommend this tour to every person I know. The direct booking process was extremely easy.

Lindsay also managed to memorize all 17 names of those on our tour by the time we arrived at the trail which was impressive. I have been on an Airboat in the past but this one was much better being guided by a local from the Miccosukee tribe. Super memorable and wonderful day. Wild Lime does it best. read less

Wild Glades Tour Lindsay, our guide, was a joy from start to finish. Very well versed in all the flora and fauna of the Everglades. All our group appreciated her young and lovely style of sharing her knowledge and experience of the glades with us.

She even told us about her favorites animals with the promise not to tell the manatees that her absolute super favorites are the dolphins! She coordinated with Captain Gary who showed us the 10,000 island area where we spotted many dolphins and saw fish. He grew up there and he is a salty good humored and knowledgeable man with rich family ties to these islands. Lindsay saved the “Buffalo Tigers Air boat” tour for last. Captain Zach was impressive, behind his mild mannered Louisiana drawl was a young man with great respect for all the animals and they for him. Even the huge alligator, he has befriended, allowed us to take great photos which otherwise would have been impossible. In summary, our tour was excellent and Lindsay rocked it out in style. read less

Florida trip from London Oh my god, Lindsay is possibly the funniest person I’ve ever met in my life. She had me crying with laughter all day. It was just so much fun. Really enjoyed this trip which was very informative. Lindsay knew everything about the wildlife and plants which really made the trip. Thanks for a great time Omar

A great family morning We had a lovely morning with Wild Lime adventures on a hike through Shark Valley and an airboat tour through the Miccosukee lands in the Everglades.

Ben was very helpful and accommodating with trip planning and making last minute changes to accommodate my family. First we had a walk with Ben through Shark Valley. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I learned from Ben, because I have actually been to Shark Valley many times before. I appreciated learning more about birds and alligators and that he was careful to point out the native history of the area. Then we went down the street to the airboat tour. He partners with the Miccosukee guide to take us and he narrates along the way. I was surprised that we stopped at a small village way out on a mangrove island. It was absolutely beautiful. He very thoughtfully provided us water, snacks, and ear protection for the airboat ride. I have a new love and appreciation of this area and I will definitely be back. read less

Fabulous Day What a great day! The tour is well organized, informative, and fun. The lunch was delicious as was the Fry Bread we stopped for during the air boat ride. Observed wonderful flora and fauna (and fish)--a great way to experience the best of Florida. So happy w

On the first day we started early and were driven down to the Keys to first go on a special snorkel tour alongside divers who were feeding nurse sharks. We the snorkellers got to watch and even stroke them ourselves at one point. We visited two sites and then head for lunch - fish tacos for me were great, though I could have eaten twice as much. In the afternoon we went kayaking - supposedly to find manatees - but we ended up going down mangrove tunnels which was a great experience as you had to dodge the mangroves and other kayakkers. The guide - Lindsey ​- was fun and perfect for the tour, helping people on the kayaks and diving down to the bottom to take pictures for me while snorkelling. The second day tour to the everglades was even better. First a 'wet walk' into a cypress dome. I had no idea what to expect as we trudged through water which got up to our thighs at one point, but suddenly the landscape became eerily beautiful, like no other. We saw plenty of wildlife too in the canals by the car park, loads of alligators. Then we went for lunch at a wonderful cuban restaurant which had a hearty vegan option for my wife too. We learnt a lot about Everglades city and the Mikosukee Indians from the excellent guide - Stacey . Next we went for a boat ride in the 10,000 islands park and finally an airboat ride which stopped at an Indian outpost where we sampled pumpkin fried bread - a must. The tour prices were quite high - $300 per person, and normally I would have booked all these things myself and driven from place to place, but this time I think we did the right thing in booking with Wildlime and letting them do all the hard work. Maybe we codl have saved a few dollars by booking the parts ourselves - we had a car after all - but every single experience was top notch, as were the guides, and their knowledge and experience meant that we just had to enjoy ourselves, which we did. Two great trips, loads of pictures and memories. Priceless. read less

Ben was a terrific and entertaining guide. He knew all our names and thoughtfully answered every question with intelligence and a sense of humor. We left learning much about the ecosystem of Florida and how it is dependent on the health of the Everglades. We saw stunning examples of wildlife at every turn, with Ben there to identify and talk about each one. As we drove past busloads/airboats jammed with tourists, we were very happy to be in a small group. Our airboat was guided by a local from the Miccosukee tribe, who talked about his experience growing up in the Everglades. For my next trip - and there will be one - I'll book Wild Lime Adventures. read less

Wow! What an opportunity! What an amazing way to experience the Everglades and Cypress! Lindsay rates up with the best tour guides we have ever used. She is quite knowledgeable about the ecosystem and the human history of the area. Both of our boat captains were amazing as well. We highly recommend this to anyone who wants to experience the Everglades!

Well-organized, informative tour! Highly recommended! Fantastic guides! The owner of the company was just great about communicating with us prior to the tour as we had to make some changes to our reservation, and then our tour guide was both friendly and knowledgeable.

If we had just gone into the Everglades Natl. Park on our own and walked the trail there, we wouldn't have known what we were looking at, but she pointed out several plants and explained how the Native Americans used them, gave us a bit of history, had us such on sawgrass for water to show us how one can get moisture when it's unsafe to drink the water, and spotted many birds and even some gators. We had fun and learned a lot. She also made sure we had ponchos and blankets for the wind on the airboat, had water, snacks, and sunscreen handy, and took some great photos of my husband and me that Key Lime promptly sent us the next day at no extra charge. In short, everything was beautifully organized. Highly recommend this company! read less

Great Day Tour through the Everglades Loved this tour! Such a beautiful place and so much wildlife. It was a cold day when we went, but we still saw a bunch of animals. Lots of birds, alligators, a turtle swimming on the airboat tour, dolphins, and more! Our tour guide was very informative, helpful and friendly. Definitely take this tour to get an all encompassing guide to the Everglades!

It gave us a taste of the Everglades. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Darren, our guide, provided us with the ideal balance of knowledge without being overwhelming and taking away from the delight of experiencing the environment. He shared the history of the Everglades and explained in very digestible terms the ecosystem. The Everglades is not only essential to the flora and fauna that live there, but life sustaining to all of Florida including human. The airboat portion of our tour was guided by a member of the Miccosukee tribe. We learned that the Miccosukee tribe once lived throughout the Everglades in chickees and how they sustained themselves. He introduced us to “Mama,” an alligator he had grown up with since his teenage years. This tour was one of the highlights of our stay in the Miami area. Thank you very much. read less

Wet walk was great! Our Guide Darren was excellent, interesting explanation of ecology of Everglades. Both boat rides

Don't Miss This Tour! Wonderful! Worth every dollar. We don't do tours and my husband was skeptical but this was such a great way to see the Everglades up close and personal. Terr

Great day in the Everglades Ben was a great guide and we had a awesome experience on both the nature walk and air boat ride. Definitely nice to get both experiences in one trip. His knowledge of the Everglades and his partnership with the Miccosukee Tribe was definitel

Amazing Everglades Adventure Amazing tour with Ben (owner) - knowledgeable, has a passion for wildlife, great teacher (held the full attention of our teenage boys) and went out of his way to accommodate our schedule. All expectations were exceeded. Would recommend them to anyone! The airboat tour and walk were the perfect combination. Would love to go back!

The equipments looks in good condition and well sanitized as well. I would choose wild lime again for other activities if coming back to Miami. read less

Very fun and educational! Lindsey was informative and made it fun for our group! I had so much fun of the airboat ride and got to see quite a few alligators. On the nature walk we found a mama and baby alligator and then another one growled at us as we were leaving! He must have wanted us

Amazing Day! What a great all day adventure! Our guide Darren was knowledgeable and to be with. On the air boat ride we got to see an alligator eating a turtle! Crunch! The wet work was exciting and not as creepy as I thought it would be. Lunch was at a Cuban restaurant and then another boat ride in the 10,000 islands area. So many different eco systems. Lots of education and unforgettable experiences!

fun time in Everglades with Darren we loved our full day tour: wet hike & Everglades adventure led by an experienced naturalist (Darren). the highlight was Darren- an educated and enthusiastic biologist and we learned a lot, and enjoyed his company. first we admired all the egrets, cormorants and anhingas by the canal as we drove into the everglades, then the alligators! the wet hike in the cypress forest/swamp was totally different and wonderful. then we had a fun lunch at the Havana Cafe. we... read morewe loved our full day tour: wet hike & Everglades adventure led by an experienced naturalist (Darren). the highlight was Darren- an educated and enthusiastic biologist and we learned a lot, and enjoyed his company. first we admired all the egrets, cormorants and anhingas by the canal as we drove into the everglades, then the alligators! the wet hike in the cypress forest/swamp was totally different and wonderful. then we had a fun lunch at the Havana Cafe. we enjoyed captain cody on his narrated boat ride thru the Everglades, and also the air boat ride. these are people that have grown up in the Everglades and have a lot of experience there. all in all, I recommend this highly and would do another tour with Wild Lime (maybe the same tour in a different season, to see different things like blooming orchids). another plus: we had no insects!! read less

We opted for this tour as it was highly rated and seemed very up front on what to expect. It absolutely delivered on all levels and more! Our guide, Darren, was awesome! He was also very friendly and knowledgeable; due to some programs we had watched we had a lot of questions for him about local wildlife and he was able to discuss all of them intelligently. Once in the park he gave us the wildlife disclaimer, because wildlife usually doesn't show up when you ask it to. Seconds later we walked into an Alligator chilling next to the trail head. It just kept getting better from there! By the end of the nature walk, we really felt very lucky to have seen as much wildlife activity as we did! Of note: most of the walk is along a paved path that runs next to a natural channel. I saw some reviews frown at this, but i assure you that the wildlife in that channel is very wild, and you will appreciate the ease of travel versus the unpaved trails you will walk. Do not let that deter you, believe me! From there we went to the airboat ride on the Indian reservation. This was well thought out by the tour, including having vital hearing protection ready for us as these boats are LOUD!! I felt bad for the other people on the boat who were not a part of our tour as they did not have them. This was the portion of the trip which required masks (as seen in our photos) as this is an Indian reservation requirement. It was not an issue for us nor did it take away from the experience. The airboat ride was just the right length, and the tree island village was very nice. One of the best parts: they picked us up from our hotel and dropped us off at the end of the day! We did not even have to drive anywhere for the tour, which was amazing!! All in all it was money very well spent. Highly highly recommend this tour for the information and context you will be provided on everything you will see in the park, and beyond. read less

Excellent tour! Our full-day tour with Wild Lime was the highlight of our time in South Florida. The wet hike in the morning was incredible. Not strenuous or scary but immersive into the Everglades.

Lindsay was our extremely talented guide who shared her extensive knowledge about the wildlife and the ecosystem throughout the expeditions. Not only does she have a degree in wildlife science she really knows and is passionate about the environment and had so much to share. Lindsay made even the most complicated scientific concepts like water quality digestible to the entire group of folks with all different levels of understanding. On top of that, she was friendly, fun, and made sure everyone was safe and taken care of. There was plenty of water, sunscreen, snacks, and mask wearing while in the van so you are always cared for and protected! The food was yummy and prompt at a local restaurant as well. The tours themselves were fun and exciting. The boat captains really knew how to engage with the wildlife and find us rare sightings like sawfish and dolphins. A total 10/10!!!

Great Tour! Highly recommend! We had a great experience with Wild lime adventures. Lindsey was our tour guide. She was friendly and had our curiosity from the beginning of the trip. Her explanations were very informative. We also had a great boat tour guide, Gary, who shared his rich history with Everglades city. We saw a bunch of alligators, which was exciting. Would definitely recommend this tour to people who want to know more about Florida's everglades and big cypress.

Day in the Everglades What a fun day full of learning. Great for families. Exciting to learn uses of some plants and info about the area and to see the wildlife! Highly recommend. Lunch always very good at a local Cuban re

Enjoyable Everglades tour. I had a fantastic Everglades tour with Darren. He was knowledgeable and worked very hard to make sure the entire group enjoyed their day. The experience was both enjoyable and educational. I would not hesitate to recommend this tour to anyone who wants to experience the Everglades and learn a little bit about the wildlife and the ecosystem.

EVERGLADES ADVENTURE W/ WET HIKE LED BY AN EXPERIENCED NATURALISTOne of the best experiences I had in a very long time. It is beautiful and the tour guide is so knowledgeable and professional. The 10,000 island boat tour, was incredible with Dolphins all over playing around us. The airboat ride is unique and the wet walk, is something that everyone should do. So much nature!!! So beautiful!!!

My daughter and I had an amazing time. Ben and Darren where knowledgeable, professional and very friendly! We would definitely go back. The weather was perfect and flora and fauna was plentiful…beautiful birds, exotic plants, dolphins and alligators (even seeet little babies)! Totally worth it!

Amazing day What an amazing day! We started with the wet walk and what a different experience for us. This is something you could do on your own but we never would have done it because you need to know where the trails are and where to go. I also don't think you would learn as much going without a guide as the amount you learn about the vegetation and why/how the terrain changes is fascinating. After the wet walk... read moreWhat an amazing day! We started with the wet walk and what a different experience for us. This is something you could do on your own but we never would have done it because you need to know where the trails are and where to go. I also don't think you would learn as much going without a guide as the amount you learn about the vegetation and why/how the terrain changes is fascinating. After the wet walk is finished you then proceed on to the first boat ride. We zipped through the mangroves of the Everglades learning about the history of the area and seeing a lot of wildlife including some dolphins and sawfish. We were then on our way to lunch at a local restaurant in town and the food was excellent with a nice selection. One of the better lunches you could have on a full day tour. After that we went on to our airboat ride in the sea of grass. It was enjoyable and we went to an old Indian village. We also saw a lot of alligators ranging from babies to adults. I would be remiss not to mention our amazing guide Darren. The sheer amount of knowledge he provided on the history of the area, the ecology and the wildlife was fantastic. He really made the day come together and ensured it was a great experience. Can't recommend this tour enough if you want to get immersed into the Everglades and Big Cypress. It's a long day but well worth it!! read less

Everglades tour We did the full day Everglades tour with wet walk. FYI- the wet walk is not scary at all. It was an awesome day! Very knowledgeable staff, well paced, saw lots of wildlife, tasty lunch at a restaurant, etc. Would highly recommend Wild Lime for a truly authentic tour to the Everglades!

Informative and fun A wonderful day that had our group probing the nooks and crannies of salt, brine, and freshwater glades. We saw a large variety of animal and plantlife that included monstrous alligators, grassy swamps, water birds, mangrove forests, and dolphins that swam by our boat. Our naturalist guides Stacy and Lindsay were a font of information and knowledge.

We saw a large variety of animal and plantlife that included monstrous alligators, grassy swamps, water birds, mangrove forests, and dolphins that swam by our boat. Our naturalist guides Stacy and Lindsay were a font of information and knowledge. It was a well-paced tour that interspersed wildlife viewing with amusing tidbits on local history and folklore, lunch at a Cuban restaurant, highlighted with stops at the world's smallest post office and Swampape "research center." The day ended with a walk through the swamp to get close-up looks at the ecosystem. I'd never seen the Everglades and this was a great way to immerse yourself in the environment. Well worth the cost. Might be too much for young kids. Better for late teens and adults. They supply bug spray, sunscreen, and water shoes. Bring a pair of leggings or light pants for the swamp walk. read less

Great adventure with knowledgeable naturalist This tour was well-planned, delivered everything promised and more. The guide was a marine biologist who knew her stuff. She was cheery and fun and informative without ever being too "lecture-y", but if you asked something that required deep knowledge, she could always provide it. We say everything that we wanted to see, including dancing dolphins, exotic and endangered birds (roseate spoonbills, wood storks, etc.), had a brief manatee sighting, and saw some endangered fish.

Amazing views of alligators in their natural environment We did the half day everglades tour and it was great. The tour guide Ben was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. The nature walk at the beginning was well guided with really meaningful information. Gators and other wildlife were plentiful and the walk peaceful. The air boat portion was incredible, with close visuals of alligators and water birds. The experience of being on an airboat is impressive- it feels like flying over the river of grass.

The air boat portion was incredible, with close visuals of alligators and water birds. The experience of being on an airboat is impressive- it feels like flying over the river of grass. We loved that it didn't feel exploitative. There were no animals in cages. We left nothing but footprints and ripples on the water. This is one of the best vacation activities we have ever done. We would definitely do this again and will recommend it to friends and family. read less

Magical and educational Everglades experience This is an amazing trip, meticulously planned so it's all seamless. Darren was our incredibly knowledgeable guide who was also a fantastic communicator and very thoughtful about making sure everyone in the group was enjoying themselves and could ask him questions. We saw gators, dolphins, osprey, egrets, cormorants, anhingas etc (and I can now tell the difference between a cormorant and an anhinga!).

High quality Everglades tour I was looking to organize a last-minute trip to the Everglades with my 12-year old son, and luckily I found Wild Lime Adventures online. The tour was phenomenal.

The walk in the National Park was nice, but the highlight was definitely the airboat ride, which took place in an area where only Wild Lime has a permit, so we didn't see any other boats. The captain & guide, Elvis took us to an island where we encountered a big alligator who knew Elvis' voice and came over to him when he called. Pretty magical. An awesome day. Highly recommended. read less

A very great experience!!! This was really a very great experience! Ben was a very good well knowledge guide and very friendly! He picked us up from the appartment in Hollywood (FL) and had some nice talks. We had a great day, we did a walk and after that an airboattrip over the Everglades with Elvis the boat captain. We could not have a better experience than this!!!

You Can't Get Better Than This! My brother, his 14-year old son, and I did the Full Day Tour: Wet Hike & Everglades Adventure Led by Ben, one of the owners of Wild Lime Adventures on Wednesday, November 24, 2021. We met the van at the Miccosukee General Store on Tamiami Trail. Easy ride from the Turnpike @ 8:20am. There were 12 in our group. It was a glorious crisp, 65 degree sunny day.

We met the van at the Miccosukee General Store on Tamiami Trail. Easy ride from the Turnpike @ 8:20am. There were 12 in our group. It was a glorious crisp, 65 degree sunny day. I wore a sweatshirt, sweatpants, old sneakers, and hoodie with pockets and zippers to hold my valuables for our Swamp Walk. I wouldn't have picked this but my brother grew up playing in the creek in the summer looking for salamanders so I knew he would like it. Well, we all had a blast. You get wet up to your butt, but your top stays dry, and your shoes get muddy. I brought a change of clothes including underwear and shoes and used them. Do not fear the Wet Walk. It is awesome. Next up was our cruise through the 10,000 Islands only inhabited by birds, & raccoons from what we saw including a mother and baby dolphin. Our captain expertly maneuvered through the shallow water and the scenery was unbelievable. Next was lunch at the quaint Havana Cafe. We made several stops to view spectacular birds and the smallest post office before we got to our final destination, the iconic Airboat Ride through the Sea of Grass. This really was the icing on the cake of this most amazing tour that should be on anyone's bucket list. Ben and Wild Lime Adventures know what they're doing taking you to the best places in the Everglades with local experts. Thank you for making me a hero to my brother and nephew for finding this tour! read less

Fantastic! Our favorite part of the trip was definitely the airboat. The whole day was a great experience. The tour operator is top notch you will not be disappointed. Our guide Darrin was very knowledgeable and personable. Don’t think about it. Just

Excellent tour The tour was excellent and very well organised as well as very informative ! During the walk we saw different local plants as well as diffère turtles ,fish and alligators and birds.

Very awesome, save yourself the hassle and take the all-inclusive tour. Went out with Ben, owner of Wild Lime on November 23. Great Trip.

We went on a short hike, a boat ride through the 10,000 Islands and an Airboat Ride to end our adventures for the day. We also had many pit stops, a wonderful lunch and small attractions that we stopped at along the way. This was a full day of adventures and worth every penny. At the end of the day I was looking into what trips I could take on my next visit with Wild Lime Adventures. You wont be disappointed a very fun full day! read less

We had a fun boat tour through the mangroves of the 10 thousand islands and a walk through the cypress canopy in Cypress National Preserve. It was a wonderful day led by our naturalist Lindsay who was extremely knowledgeable about the natural history, eco system and historical culture of the area. We even topped the tour off with a piece of frozen key lime pie. Lindsay was knowledgeable and delightful and besides sharing her enthusiasm and knowledge of the area she made sure we were all very comfortable. I highly recommend this tour if you love the outdoors. read less

WLA people were very responsive and helpful before, during and even after the adventure. We were a group of 5 and Lindsay was our guide.

She made our day when she brought us on kayaks to a creek were we observed 4 adult and one baby manatees. The baby was playful and very curious, she was swimming along our kayaks ling time. Her mom was surely happy that her baby found a company to play with and she had some time for a short nap. Snorkeling around the coral reef in the afternoon was exciting too, sharks, barracudas, jelly fish and countless colorful fishes. read less

We had an amazing all day, wading everglades tour. It is everything as advertised. Stacy was an amazing tour guide who was very knowledgeable about the everglades ecology and culture. Can't recommend this enough.

My daughter and I really enjoyed all parts of our day excursion! We started with airboat to where our boat captain and family lived in generations past, on a simple mound of grass with huts for shelter. Then wet swamp walk, which we've been telling everyone about since! Lunch at delicious restaurant followed by boat ride into the golf to see dolphins and other wildlife. Guide Darren made it all fun!

We had a very informative tour with Darren! We heard alligators bellowing, and saw baby gators on our nature walk. The airboat ride to the tree village was amazing. We even got to meet Mama, the long time resident alligator. Definitely recommend!!

Stacey was absolutely great & knowledgeable as our tour guide & wild limes cruise, hike, airboat full day tour was an amazing way for my boyfriend & I to explore the Everglades. It was very informative, all boat drivers were skilled and professional. I loved that snacks, water, sunscreen, insect repellant, and a delicious lunch were all included. Plenty of beautiful scenic nature views & wildlife spottings. Definitely recommend this south florida experience!

Super fun and educational! Great day, would do it again!!!! Knowledgeable and helpful guides. We saw wonderful flora and faunaexotic birds, porpoises, alligators in the wild and amazing plants and trees. Totally worth it! One last note, when I couldn’t fed my wallet, they went the extra mile! So honest, kind and professional.

EVERGLADES ADVENTURE W/ WET HIKE LED BY AN EXPERIENCED NATURALIST One of the best experiences I had in a very long time. It is beautiful and the tour guide is so knowledgeable and professional. The 10,000 island boat tour, was incredible with Dolphins all over playing around us. The airboat ride is unique and the wet walk, is something that everyone should do. So much nature!!! So beautiful!!!

Great experience! The cruise, dry hike and airboat tour was great and very enjoyable. As first time visitors to the Everglades, we saw and learned so much.

We had the absolute best experience with Wild Lime Adventures. We could not rate them more highly! Stacy in particular was an absolute gem and helped us out with a sticky situation (getting stranded in the Everglades with no transportation). We would come back again for sure and will be recommending this to every one we know!

Great! We had a great full day adventure in the Everglades! Hotel pickup was convenient and comfortable. On the airboat we saw several alligators as well as many birds. We got absolutely soaked in a rain storm that popped up but it’s Florida and it didn’t ruin our fun. The ride out to 10,000 islands was also a great experience.

Nice intro to the Everglades This was an excellent tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable and gave us so much information about the plants and wildlife. Pickup was exactly on time and very convenient at our hotel. There was a small problem before our tour, as the full day tour that we had reserved in advance had to be cancelled. But Wild Lime Tours went out of their way to offer alternatives and gave us a discount on this alternative tour. …

You won't regret doing this... Worth every penny. Stacy did an excellent job of relating fascinating facts about flora and fauna of the Everglades while ferrying us from point to point. Airboat ride, cruise in the 10,000 islands and short boardwalk hike were the highlights for us. Tasty lunch was just a bonus. …

Great experience Myself and my 12 year old neice went on this tour. We had a great time the highlight for her was seeing dolphins and wathcing them swim with the boat. We had a great time and learned a lot.

Awesome tour operator I signed up for this event I thought I would like the airboat ride the best but the nature walk was truly awesome. The knowledge of our guide who was a marine biologist was incredible in depth and breath and learning about the history of the Everglades and especially the Indians who lived there was truly amazing. We will definitely do another trip with this tour group. Love the airboat ride too! …

Amazing experience ! Amazing experience ! We really appreciated the kindness and accompaniment of Daren our guide, passionate about nature, for the day. We loved the discovery tours, on foot, by airboat or by boat. An original and pleasant way to be aware of the beauty and fragility of this natural environment. …

Excellent trip to the Everglades with Darren. He was knowledgeable and informed and was also open about what he didn't know, which is always nice. We saw a lot of unique flora and fauna, including several alligators. Pickup was prompt and their office was very responsive. Highly recommend.

Excellent Great variety of activities….airboat then flat boat then walk on boardwalk Darren excellent guide and has great insight and knowledge to ecology, cultural and natural life of the swamp. Learned many bits of information from this day. Thank you! D and D from Texas

GREAT experience - book with Ben Fantastic outing. Ben (from Miami) was great. Knowledgeable, super friendly, helpful and funny. Picked us up right at our Hollywood hotel.. so convenient. Clear and regular updates for pickup/drop off. Great communication. Ben gave us a perfect tour of the everglades and made the day trip super easy -- no worries. …

so fun! loved swimming with the sharks and they were very sweet

Amazing experience. Guides were so professional and so friendly. Definitely recommend!!

The full day everglades tour was worth every penny. I highly recommend it. It is a FULL day with lunch. Ben, our tour guide, was wonderful.

Wonderful day exploring Everglades and Big Cypress with our guide Ben. He was super knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. We also really enjoyed getting to know our fellow travelers. Spotted heaps of wildlife: dolphins, gators large and small, herons, anahinga. Food, drinks and snacks tasty and plentiful. Highly recommend!

We like adventures and this was by far the best overall experience we have ever had. From the beginning all the way to the end we had a blast! Bucket list trip for sure!

My friends and I ubered to the Everglades but didn’t know that ridesharing services don’t pick up from the park, and the taxi companies that the park referred us to either didn’t pick up the multiple times we called or were extremely unhelpful/rude. We were effectively stranded until we came across a Wild Lime shuttle, whose driver let us hitch a ride back to downtown Miami free of cost!

No trip, but good customer service We actually did not take a tour with Wild Lime because our travel dates would not work with their tour schedule. However, following an inquiry regarding their tours, I received a prompt and friendly response from Ben with the information I needed and demonstrating an uncommon level of customer service.

Fun and educational Our guide Ben was excellent. We learned and had fun during this full day trip. Could not be any better. Definitely worth it and would do it again. We especially enjoyed the two boat trips. The air boat was exciting! We saw nature up front and personal. Great way to explore the Everglades in one day.

Trip is a must!! Don't miss out on this trip if you're down near Miami. Exceeded our expectations 100 fold. Stacey was the best tour guide ever. Her knowledge of the land and the native American culture was unreal.

Worth Every Penny If you're debating on whether or not this is worth the money, it is! Do it! You will not be sorry. We had such a blast. Ben was awesome, as well as everyone else. Every time we thought the day was over, there was another surprise! It is a FULL day of adventure, nature, and history. We loved every single minute. Also, these people are SO nice. They were very accommodating to the entire group.

Amazing Experience We has so much fun! We learned a lot about the history. We would highly recommend it to everyone! Must do!

Adventurous & Insightful These guys are awesome! Ben was our guide and took great care of us, always ensuring we had enough snacks, water and whatever else we needed. We learned a ton about the wildlife, saw beautiful country and made friends. We spent time with dolphins on the ocean, gators in the Everglades, and learned about the history of the people there. We highly recommend Wild Lime. They do a wonderful job.

Half-day was awesome Thoroughly enjoyed the half day tour with Ben. After being picked up from our hotel, we drove ~45 minutes out to the Everglades for a nature walk followed by the airboat ride. Ben was very knowledgeable, funny, and accommodating, even providing some snacks and drinks throughout the day. We look forward to booking another tour with Wild Lime when we come back to the area, and would definitely recommend to friends.

Exceeded our expectations Everything on this tour was done right!

The hikes, the airboat venture, the island cruise and the museums were well coordinated and fact filled. Not only did we get to see nature up close and personal, we got a good glimpse of the history of the native Americans.

Amazing tour! Best thing we did on our florida trip. The “hike” is more of a short walk down a paved path. Our guides were very knowledgable and took us to many small local museums and we learned so much about the Everglades. They picked us up and had an amazing full lunch at a local restaurant called joannas I think? I recommend the crab cakes! Overall this trip is a must do!

Must do in Everglades Loved this all day experience. Best way to see parts of the Everglades and learn about the area. Tour guides were friendly and knowledgeable.

Full day wild lime adventure Love this full day Everglades hike boat airboat & mini van tour. Well worth the price and good guide. Highly recommend it.

Highly Recommend Elijah and Stacey went above and beyond!!! They were absolutely amazing from start to finish. Dan and I did the Everglades all day tour today and had such a magical experience! We got to see plenty of gators, dolphin, an eagle ray, fish, and lots of different birds.... we also helped save a turtle from the road. Very informative and fun!

We got to experience the local culture which was awesome. Our air boat driver, Elvis, grabbed a fish and threw it to a gator who caught and ate it mid air! A fabulous life experience we won’t forget! Thank you so much for everything ! You both rock!!! read less

Want to spend a full day enjoying nature without hustle bustle of city? Book this tour. This adventure was worth every penny. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Our guide, Ben, was very knowledgeable and fun to be around with. Our Airboat tour driver was Miccosukee Native, Robert and I guess he must be over 72 years old. He took us to an old Indian village deep in Everglades where he grew up. It was very nice to walkaround that village.

Another highlight was cruising through mangroves in Gulf of Mexico where we saw Dolphins. Our boat Captain was Tristan. He shared lots of stories and we enjoyed his company. We saw lots of alligators and different birds. We even saw the smallest US Post Office in Ochopee. Overall, great experience, nice people and good food. read less

Nature nature everywhere Hard to pick one thing that was a favorite but seeing such a plethora of wildlife was absolutely amazing!! We had an excellent guide in Mike who ensured we had drinks, snacks, bathroom stops, and even pit stops for Park Service stamps.

I was alone, but mixed in with an interesting, diverse group of people, to whom this type of trip held a "back to nature" appeal.
During the course of the day, we set out on 4 walks, which were boardwalk paved. Lots of alligator sightings, with many newborns (cute when they're small)!
If you are interested in birds, it is nothing short of paradise.
We boarded a not fancy, airboat, for an hour long trip through the swamps. No other way to see that part of the Everglades.
Lunch was included, at a stone crab shack in Everglades City, complete with traps all around and wood picnic tables facing the water. What a spot! The crab cakes were huge and delicious.
Next stop was a thrill, with a power boat trip, leaving from Chokoloskee, Fl. Bet you haven't heard to it! Our driver was a young guy who was 6th. generation. He maneuvered us through the 10,000 islands region, while many dolphins swam along with us. So much history in those waters.
All in all, don't even think about going on a packaged "alligator wrestling" trip, when Wild Lime has a menu of offerings that will show you the real thing.
And, thank you Ben, for the organization leading up to my memorable trip. You really know how to run your company. read less

Great Everglades Tour. Stacy is outstanding. She was our guide and it was an amazing experience because of her. Highly recommend it.

Fun and educational Our guide Ben was excellent. We learned and had fun during this full day trip. Could not be any better. Definitely worth it and would do it again. We especially enjoyed the two boat trips. The air boat was exciting! We saw nature up front and personal. Great way to explore the Everglades in one day. …

Trip is a must!! Don't miss out on this trip if you're down near Miami. Exceeded our expectations 100 fold. Stacey was the best tour guide ever. Her knowledge of the land and the native American culture was unreal.

Easy and Fun Way to Visit the Everglades Ben was a great tour guide! Prior to our excursion there was clear communication for pick up and directions, which made our car ride very easy. We learned a lot on our nature walk and he answered every question I had (which was a lot.)

The Only Way to See the Everglades in One Day! My wife, son, & I spent a full day with Ben, who guided us throughout the park, and saw more than we would have doing it on our own. We began with an Airboat tour through the River of Grass and saw alligators and visited a floating island.

We began with an Airboat tour through the River of Grass and saw alligators and visited a floating island. Then we hiked through “Sharks ?” and Ben pointed out the many birds, alligators, fish, and other wildlife of the Everglades. Appreciated the availability of rest rooms, water, soda, and snacks throughout the tour. The visit to Everglades City was a highlight for the wonderful lunch (featuring Cuban cuisine) and the boat rides throughout the many small islands. We especially enjoyed the many dolphins that entertained us and chased us and jumped in our wake as we left. On our return, we hiked through Big Cypress and found how the alligators create holes where the water remains as the natural receding season of the River of Grass occurs creating growth for trees and water for fish and other wildlife. Ben was great at reading the group and how much to hike! We left the tour happy and tired! Would recommend this tour to anyone interested in visiting the Everglades! They have sunscreen and insect repellent as needed. read less

Everything We Hoped For We were so happy with this tour. We saw all the animals we hoped to see, as well as lots of beautiful terrain. Our tour guide, Ben, was friendly and knowledgeable, as were the boat drivers. Lunch was great (Cuban food!) It was super convenient to be picked up and dropped off at our hotel. Highly recommend this experience to anyone.

A complete Everglades experience! Our guide, Mike, made our day a relaxed, happy one. The boat ride portion of the tour was amazing! Having dolphins swim around our boat was beautiful.

Great Adventure Everything was Excellent. Our guide was Mike And he was Outstanding! The Airboat ride was our favorite but really everything was top rate.

Amazing adventure We had such an amazing experience! We got to see approximately 40 alligators, rosette spoonbills, egrets, herons, dolphins,and the list just goes on. The guides are so knowledgeable about area, the plants, and the animals. Lunch was delicious. I would highly recommend this tour to everyone ❤️

An adventure to remember Our favorite part was seeing the alligators up close and seeing the dolphins in their natural setting. If you are doing this tour bring comfortable shoes and a hat. Our guide was Mike he was knowledgeable and very friendly. He provided water, snacks and tons of insight. We even met a local Indian who grew up in the area before it was some what developed.

Last of all enjoy nature. Soak it all in.

One of the best tours ever! We have done safaris in Africa and one forgets all the great “wild nature” in the US since we are so developed here. This was a great reminder of how amazing and diverse the US is.

We finally stopped counting as we saw so many alligators and beautiful birds. The kids got to safely hold a baby alligator and see a Native American village. The wet walk in Big Cypress was one of the most unique hikes we have done.... read moreWe have done safaris in Africa and one forgets all the great “wild nature” in the US since we are so developed here.

The highlight was the final boat ride out to the Gulf of Mexico where a group of wild dolphins followed our boat for a bit. It was magical.

Ben was so informative -we walked away with new knowledge. The sprinter van was huge, clean and stocked with plenty of water and snacks.

This was one of the best tours we have ever been on in the US. We can’t wait to do another one with Wild Lime! read less

We had a blast! Highly recommended all day tour! Mike was awesome. Enjoyed all aspects of this tour. We enjoyed the nature walk and Big Cypress hike. Yummy lunch at Havana cafe. Think genuine Cuban sandwiches. Boat tour of the Ten Thousand Island was once in a lifetime with dolphins frolicking around. Airboat tour was a blast as well. An amazing day!

Fantastic tour We absolutely loved this tour. Ben was great, and even though it was unusually cold we saw lots of wildlife including plenty of alligators. The airboat was fun, as always, and we got to see an alligator up close and personal.

Real Florida Our guide Mike did an amazing job. We were picked up on time, he was funny and very knowledgeable. He took us to the right stops that were full of Florida wildlife. It was all natural Florida. No animals in cages. The boat tours they used were perfect with local tour guides that knew the area and had lived in the Everglades their entire life with great stories to share.

I highly recommend this company and Mike.

Wildlife Paradise! was visiting Florida for work and wanted to round off the trip with a visit to the Everglades, an obsession of mine since an early age.

I searched for several tours through the Everglades. Most of the search results did not meet my criteria, and/or only offered airboat or thrill boat rides. Then I discovered Wild Lime Adventures. I loved that this outfit had full and 1/2 day tours available across the spectrum, and kept the number of attendees per van to a minimum. I selected the full day tour which included an airboat ride on tribal land, a trip by van where we had lunch and then into Big Cyprus National Preserve for a boat ride through the mangroves of the ten thousand islands, and finally, last but not least, the day ended with a dry walk. Throughout the day, I saw tons of alligators, fish, some turtles, a non-poisonous snake, and so many birds I can't remember the names of them all. We also saw two manatees on the drive and we stopped for a bit to watch natures original zeppelins. It was not only the nature that made the tour, our tour guide Stacy was wonderful and they were highly organized, COVID compliant, and did everything they could to make the trip memorable. Stacy and the operators of the airboat and boat ride, were very knowledgeable about the ecosystem and surrounding nature and animals that call it home, and all of them very nice people. I would highly recommend anyone who is interested in nature, be it fish or foul, plants or animals, and about the history of the areas visited, to check it out. They have many tours available. I plan on taking a full day with wet walk instead of dry, recommended to me, the next time I am in Florida, if the season permits. read less

I highly research my vacations and usually don't do guided tours because I can do/see everything listed on the the tour cheaper and at my own pace. But due to my short time in florida, great reviews and fair price I booked this. Many place I saw wanted $100 for an airboat ride. Here you get your own personal guide for a full day AND an airboat ride late in the day when there are no other airboats running AND a normal boat ride with a multigenerational guide so he takes you to the BEST places in the 1000 islands AND see Everglades National park AND Big Cypress Preserve AND eat a high quality lunch for double that one boat ride cost. Also, all the communication with the company is AMAZING. I'm travelling solo and I wanted to do the wet tour but they let me know well ahead of time there was no one else booked on the two days I had free in Florida so I did the dry version which I was totally fine with. Communication on the meet up location was great. Our guide, Mike, was great and EXTREMELY accommodating to our groups interests. He was able to answer any question I threw at him. He was very friendly and knowledgeable. Don't hesitate to book with this company. Many of the things we saw, I never would have on our own. read less

The best part of our vacation This is a terrific tour. Ben and Stacy were wonderful, as was our boat ride with Elvis. If you want to actually experience the Everglades and see a TON of wildlife, this is for you. Highly recommend.

Gators and Dolphins Fantastic full day adventure with Ben. Started the day with a hike in shark valley and saw countless birds and alligators followed by a great lunch at Havana Cafe. Ended the day with a great boat ride in the thousand islands with dolphins jumping right next to the boat. Great day and highly recommend.

Gators and more!! The nature walk was great. Saw about 55 gators. Ben was an excellent guide. Very knowledgeable and just a nice guy. Elvis was our boat captain and he did a great job of showing us around the Everglades. Lots of fun.

The boat ride through the 10 Thousand Islands was throughly enjoyable with dolphins chasing up behind our boat. Saw an osprey nest while there. The village restaurant was very good. Visited the Clyde Buther's gallery with a little nature trail walk behind it. The visitor's center had really unique white spiders with red thorns. The airboat ride driven by an Miccosukee guide was enjoyable and fun and he even plays with an old female alligator. Noise blocking headphones are provided for this airboat ride. Seen snail kite, spoonbills, egrets, herons, alligators, fish, dolphins, osprey, turtles, bittern and frigate birds. My driver from Wild Lime Adventures was Michael and he was very friendly, accommodating and knowledgable. Highly recommend this tour, it was the highlight of my Florida vacation. Not at all physically strenuous. read less

Amazing Our guide Stacy was very knowledgeable and so were our 2 boat guides. We saw tons of alligators, 2 bald eagles , dolphins, spoonbill bird, egrets. I would do this trip again

Wonderful experience well worth the entire day for variety Stacey was a magnificent guide and naturalist who was with us all day and made everything even more interesting than we could have expected. We saw Everglades Kite, Frigate Bird, tons of alligators, wading birds. We also had a great look into Miccosukee way of life with a Miccosukee guide on the airboat. All-in-all it was a very memorable and enjoyable day. Highly recommended as a way to see the Everglades.

I loved learning about their history, and dolphins were riding the wake of the boat and interacting with us.The airboat ride at the end of the day literally took my breath away. The untouched beauty felt like we were in another world. We saw the tiniest, cutest baby alligators, and it was so cool to interact with them. The maccasukee Indians have an amazing history as well.Overall, I recommend this company to everyone of all ages. I’m not exaggerating when I tell you that this was one of the best days of my life. February is a great time to go but I’m sure it’s beautiful anytime. It’s great for people of all ages too - we were with an awesome family with kids that were 8 and 11 I think, and they had a blast.This tour not only highlights the incredible wildlife and beauty of this area, but teaches you so much about the history and culture that has shaped this way of life. Worth every penny. read less

Boat ride Awesime ride with authentic sites, didn't feel touristy.. Air boat driver was great, we got to eat some sugar cane

Book it! We had 3 young children below the age of 6 so we asked for a semi-private tour. It turned out to be a private tour. The boat rides were the highlight of the trip. Guide was knowledgeable and willing to accommodate the needs of everyone in the family. We had a great day.
