Operated by Open Miami · Miami Beach, Florida
The Everglades National Park, a vast subtropical wilderness in southern Florida, is home to unique wetlands, winding waterways, and diverse wildlife that make it one of the most distinctive natural landscapes in the United States. Just outside the urban buzz of Miami Beach, Open Miami offers an immersive Private Everglades Tour, perfect for those seeking a blend of comfort, adventure, and ecological insight.
This four-hour tour begins with a convenient pickup anywhere within Miami Beach, Brickell, South Beach, or Downtown Miami. From there, guests are transported in an open-top bus designed for unobstructed views of the landscape en route to the Everglades. The highlight awaits upon arrival: a private airboat ride customized for your group, allowing an intimate encounter with the maze-like sawgrass marshes, cypress domes, and mangrove-lined channels.
The Everglades is a critical habitat hosting unique flora such as the rare ghost orchid and fauna including American alligators and elusive Florida panthers. Your knowledgeable guide shares detailed commentary on the ecosystem’s fragile balance and its cultural significance to the indigenous Miccosukee tribes and early settlers.
What sets Open Miami’s tour apart is the private nature of the experience—no crowds, no rush—making it an ideal option for families, friends, or couples with a passion for outdoor discovery. The airboat’s quiet power slides you past flocking wading birds and turtles sunning themselves on cypress knees, bringing the Everglades’ raw beauty to life.
In a city famed for its skyline and beaches, this tour provides a rare gateway to wild Florida. Whether you’re here on a short trip or an extended stay, the Private Everglades Tour with Open Miami offers a hands-on lesson in the natural heritage that lies just beyond Miami’s borders, combining adventure with education and accessibility.
