About
Head out on a smaller air boat, which enables us to way out there! We stop at one or two Native tree island villages where they used to live; and that can only be accessed by boat and on this tour. Become immersed in their special customs and the authentic beauty of their remote way of life. Also go on a nature walk led by our master naturalist in the actual National Park. We are one of just a few companies permitted to lead interpretive walking tours there. We know where all the wildlife is, and we get to see a lot of it up close! And where wildlife should be experienced, in the wild! We provide transportation or meet us at the tour location or other meet up spot.
