We invite all our guest to visit Dade Corners Pilot Travels Center first for restrooms and unique souvenirs. The boat launch is just 1.5 miles west, where you will have free parking just a few yards away from your boat and captain. Uber and Lyft drivers are welcome, and they are typically just a few minutes away for quick and easy pickups. No long lines, long walks or crowds on this private Everglades adventure.

Take an easy step aboard a clean and comfortable airboat. Your captain will provide you with light weight noise cancelling head sets, great for keeping your hat or visor on. Be sure to bring along an extra layer of cloths, just in case the weather is cool, you will have room under the seat for your belongings. The Captain will give you a brief summary of the tour and a few rules for the ride. Sit back and enjoy this one of kind adventure where you will have amazing photo opportunities of the unique views, flora and wildlife unlike anywhere else in the world.

How you see the Everglades matters to our team at River of Grass. We look forward to welcoming you to the Everglades; see you later alligator!
