There are many reasons to come to Everglades City: the stone crabs, the great fishing, the unique history, and the great boating. However, the main attraction to those who visit Everglades City is the natural splendor that surrounds it. After all, Everglades City is located within the heart of Everglades National Park and Big Cypress National Preserve. As a result, there are a few companies in the area that offer guided tours through these national parks. Most of these companies are native owned and the people who work in them are proud of the land they call home.
These tours have gained a lot of attention over the past several years, not only by the local community, but also on an international scale. Some of the families who run these tours have been in the Everglades for many generations and all companies were given full permission by the local government to conduct business around the woods and marshes. They offer comfortable accommodations in the form of cozy cottages and small cabins for those who would like to spend nights in the reserve and they have reasonable prices too. They also have canoe and kayak rentals that allow visitors to wade through the vast marshes and mangrove forests. These boat rides are guaranteed safe for everyone and are also friendly for first-timers and children. The nice thing about these rides is that the crafts are spacious enough for you to be able to bring with you your snacks, water containers, coolers and whatever you might need to make the trip more comfortable.
There are also hikes and trails that last for several hours with an accompanied guide that takes you through the thick forests of the land. Here, you will get the chance to see the flora and fauna of the reserve as well as some endangered species like the Florida Panther. And then at night, you can go outdoor camping with your tents out or in the RV or you may perhaps want to rent out one of their 3-star cabins, complete with beds, hot showers, Wi-Fi and bathrooms. This is the perfect opportunity for you, your friends and loved ones to lay out at night by the fire and enjoy the stars on a clear night sky accompanied by an orchestra of crickets and nocturnal birds.
We invite you to come to Everglades and experience the natural beauty the place has to offer. These tours have been recognized in local and international news outlets and all have something nice to say about the place, and perhaps you might as well. So, if you are interested in exploring Big Cypress National Preserve and want to have a unique guided experience through it, make your appointment right away because slots are limited and they are in-demand all year round. Maybe book a tour and a night in one of their cozy cabins and this will surely give you a private, one-on-one experience with the Everglades that will be beyond your imagination, and one you will never forget.
