4.00This was generally a good trip. it would have been helpful if there were more than just the 2 meeting points. It was also very challenging to fit all 3 elements into 1 day. We did the Everglades followed by the boat trip and then the bus tour which we did not complete and alighted early due to the time.

Letdown by Bus service company
Hitu G,Jan 31, 2026
- Review from Viator
3.00Destinations were good but Bus company who were in charge of whole trip were big let down. - From the beginning it was totally let down. - No one was there to guide us and bus driver said there should be someone to help you. Finally he let us in and we were not even told where to get down to catch second part of tour. - When we managed to get to second part on open bus tour it was raining lightly and only space was on top deck with all the seats completely wet with nothing to wipe with, we stayed on as we had no option because our third part of trip would needed start by 6.00pm last elite for the milliners cruise slot. -No one on the kiosk to validate our ticket's, had find another booth to validate tickets. Overall all places are worth visiting but try and use different company. I even did online chat to check well before travelling to Miami that who will guide us what todo at end of each drop off, I was told there will be someone to guide you. Guess what we paid over £750.00 for our group and service was proper let down.
