On this audio tour of Everglades National Park, you will explore one of the country’s most unique wetland ecosystems. As you move through the sprawling marshes, the guide will immerse you in the sights and sounds of the park. Along the way, you will learn about the rich biodiversity of this UNESCO World Heritage Site, from elusive alligators to vibrant birdlife, and the gentle rustle of sawgrass will be a constant backdrop.

The commentary is designed to be informative without promising specific wildlife encounters, so you may hear about species and habitats even if you do not see every example.

You will explore the iconic Everglades National Park on a small-group adventure with fewer than 12 guests, led by a Florida Master Naturalist or a trained biologist. All guides are qualified master naturalists or biologists, and the operator holds special permits to guide in Everglades, Big Cypress and Dry Tortugas National Parks. They are also one of only a couple of companies authorised to run guided tours inside Everglades National Park. As you hike with your guide, you will move through three distinct habitats and learn about the plants and ecosystems that define them. You may also choose a boat trip that offers the opportunity to see a range of habitats from the water and to spot wildlife such as wading birds, alligators, crocodiles, manatees, turtles and fish. A picnic lunch is included, with vegan and vegetarian options, and snacks and drinks are provided throughout the day. Guides aim to offer an authentic, immersive and non-touristy experience, sharing expertise about the area as you explore.

This audio driving tour on the WalknTours app guides you along the main road of the Everglades. As you drive, the location-aware narration will tell you where to turn and what is at each stop so you can make the most of the landscape and its overlooks. Along the way, look for elevated observation towers, hidden boardwalk trails and tranquil ponds. You will hear stories about the Seminole and Miccosukee peoples who called this land Pa‑Hai‑Okee, as well as accounts of early plume hunters and the game warden who gave his life trying to stop them. The narration also explores the runways, the story of the animals here, the reasons why so many pythons are found in the area and where they came from, and the legends tied to Guy Bradley and the birth of wildlife conservation in America. The guide focuses on the sites you pass and the history behind them, helping you understand what each turn-off and viewpoint represents as you move through the park.

You will fish the No-Motor-Zones within Everglades National Park with a guide who uses a skiff as a mothership and launches a canoe from it. The canoe’s quiet approach lets you sneak up on fish in shallow water, offering a different experience from most other fishing charters. The water is generally calm, so there is hardly any rough water and seasickness is unlikely. As you move through the mangroves and flats, you may see a wide range of wildlife along the way. Sightings typically include manatees, spoonbills, crocodiles, eagles, herons, white pelicans, raccoons, deer and otters, so there is often more to look at than just the fishing. The quieter craft also makes observing birds and other animals easier than on big boats. Your guide does not only fish the no-motor areas. On certain days the skiff will run up rivers and out into the Gulf, and those trips can also be productive. Trips are generally tailored to your specific requests and interests, so you are encouraged to discuss what you want to fish for and see beforehand to help shape the outing.
