The airboat ride is disappointing. I could swim faster than the fastest moment. I don’t care what the Latin name for Lilly pads are- or the names of all the captains. Short- slow- boring

The constant bombardment of tip requests makes pricing misleading. This is not the national park, this is a tourist trap. The boat captain was far more interested in being a comedian and entertainer (he seemed to be channeling Howard Cosell of Wide World of Sports fame) than a guide. The speech pattern was incredibly annoying. Briefly saw one alligator barely peeping out of the water. Beyond that, a few birds.
The alligator show was mildly interesting, mostly for the good look at the alligators. The host claimed to be a volunteer for liability reasons and therefore paid exclusively by tips. Again, the host was more interested in being an entertainer and comedian than in education.
Even the shuttle driver had a sign with a short essay pleading for tips--indicating 15% of the total bill was customary. And he made mention of tipping on the microphone repeatedly as well.
Three layers of tipping made this not nearly as affordable as the pricing suggested.
The Everglades Holiday Park is not anywhere near Everglades National Park.

We went through Viator and reserved throught Banana Bobs boat tours. We had Christian as a driver, very informative. Was 45 mins from Miami beach to the everglades park. Well oil machine. We started with the gators with a well informed guide, very funny in the pen with the gators! The jet boat tour was about 1 hour. Ours was a covered roof, not open but the sides were. Saw more birds than anything and I think our drive tossed stuff so they would go eat and be near the boat. Was good but no snakes or gators. Got to see the everglades, was canals and grass and lily pads. Wasn't too impressed. I think maybe a different location or area of the glades would see more. Glad I went but won't go back.

I can't believe this place gets so much business and so many moderate to positive reviews. It's just simply a Tourist Trap. We had time to spare after a cruise ship completed so booked this tour through the ship as it included a transfer from Ft. Lauderdale to the Miami Airport. We stood in line, had our picture taken ( which they usually want $20 for but our tour guide got it included) then took not a '60 minute' airboat tour, but it was 15 to 20 minutes absolute maximum. The driver tried a few jokes and then changing his voice which was weird. The only birds he showed us - and truly over and over- were vultures. A couple of kinds of water plants and that's about it. We did see one alligator in the water briefly but he disappeared. Very poor narration and not informative. The driver encouraged tips saying that's how he gets paid. After that we stood in line for 1/2 hour to get to the alligator display and 'show'. The arrogant alligator guy tried being a comedian ( with flat results) and played the pity card that he works as a volunteer and, again, had his hand out. We were then walked through a couple of caged areas with alligators and exited ( but not before yet another off to get a copy of the picture for $5). I've always wanted to see the Everglades but certainly wouldn't chose this place to be enlightened.

We booked this tour based on proximity to our hotel and price. Well ,they say you pay for what you get. We got a boat ride in the Everglades!! If you are expecting to see any wildlife other than birds, forget it. Not an alligator in sight. Our ride was early in the AM and unfortunately our boat captain didn't think it necessary to clean/wipe the dew off the front windows. These boats are covered and therefore the windows were so covered we couldn't see anything. I had been wanting to do this for years, and I was very disappointed. I would for sure spend more money with a better tour operator.
