Central Florida Everglades and Safari Park Tour

Perfect for adventure seekers and nature lovers alike, the Central Florida Everglades and Safari Park Tour offers an unforgettable journey into Florida’s natural wonders. Glide through untouched swamps and marshes on an exciting airboat ride, then explore the incredible safari park teeming with exotic animals.

Dive deep into the heart of the Central Florida Everglades on an exciting 30-minute airboat ride, navigating through untouched swamps, marshes, and rivers. Get up close and personal with Florida’s natural wonders—majestic gators, vibrant birds, soaring eagles, and lush flora. Experience Florida as it was meant to be—pure, wild, and free from any human development. Trust us, you’ll love being in the middle of nowhere!

After your airboat ride, the adventure continues at the incredible Wild Florida Wildlife Park. Meet a variety of exotic animals including zebras, watusi, deer, water buffalo, emus, wild boars, zebus, and even monster alligators! Don't miss the tropical bird aviary, hands-on alligator demonstrations, and the stunning 500 ft. sightseeing dock.

Stroll through the serene Hawk Swamp boardwalk and immerse yourself in a pristine Florida cypress swamp ecosystem. Capture unforgettable memories with a complimentary 6x8 family photo to take home.

Exploring the wild can work up quite an appetite, so head over to the Chomphouse Grill for a mouthwatering basket lunch. With a variety of choices, including the adventurous gator bites, there’s something to satisfy every palate. Each basket includes an entrée, a side, and a drink.

To cap off your wild day, hop aboard the Gray Line vehicle for an exciting journey through the Drive-Thru Safari Park. Encounter over 100 exotic animals and native Florida wildlife like white-tailed deer, bison, cracker cows, zebras, Watusi, and oryx. Visit the special pond that houses "nuisance" alligators, a unique initiative by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC). Don't miss the chance to view magnificent giraffes up close at the giraffe viewing area.
