Much water. Few living things. The guides were excellent, knowledgeable, and engaging. But the route was a huge disappointment. We saw water, mangroves, a few porpoises. The rest was water for almost 3 hours. The tour description should make this clear. It sounded like a trip through alligator alley. But the boat bounced over water hour after hour. The last hour was actually painfully boring.

I am sorry that you were disappointed in the experience. It sounds as if your were expecting to see alligators and that you may have booked the wrong tour. We see alligators on our Alligators and Orchids Tour and the Mangrove Tunnel Kayak Eco Tour.
These two tours, above, are conducting in alligator habitat. The Everglades National Park Expedtion consists of two parts ... a boating tour and a walking tour on an unihabited island in the Coastal Everglades. This ecosystem is NOT alligator habitat.
This is part of the tour description from our website ...
"First you will enjoy a quiet, leisurely boat tour through the Park's Ten Thousand Islands coastal ecosystem. Your naturalist guide will be on the hunt for all types of wildlife... Everyday and every tour is different. But, depending on the season and the day's conditions, you may encounter dolphins, manatees, roseate spoonbills, pelicans, ospreys, eagles, ibis, herons, egrets, multitudes of sea and shore birds, sea turtles and other saltwater creatures.
After the boating tour and as conditions allow, your captain will lead you on an interpretive stroll on one of the Park's many uninhabited, barrier island beaches. These remote islands can only be accessed by boat so relatively few people every set foot where you will go.
Expect to see a natural, undisturbed Florida beach, strewn with shells... likely more shells than you have ever seen. There are lots of hands-on learning opportunities in and around the tidal flats, tidal pools, wrack-lines and beach dunes."
I do realize that it may be tough to remain engaged if you are disappointed.
I invite you to try one of the "alligator" tours as my guest. Please contact me to make arrangements.
Again I am sorry that you did not get what you expected.

Wir haben unseren Vormittag in den Everglades sehr genossen und kommen sicher wieder. Wir haben neben Delfinen auch Fisch- und Weisskopfadler gesehen :-)
