If you’re staying in Miami Beach and wondering how to reach Everglades National Park, there are a few practical options. The best choice depends on whether you want a guided airboat experience with transportation included, or if you prefer to go on your own by car.
This is the easiest way for most travelers. Our shared tour includes round-trip transportation from Miami Beach pickup areas, plus the Everglades experience—so you don’t need to plan routes, parking, or tickets separately.
If your hotel is near these areas, we’ll assign a convenient meeting point close to your location. Pickups outside these zones may be available for an additional fee.
If you prefer privacy and flexible timing, we can provide private transportation to the Everglades with waiting time included. This option is transportation-only.
Park admission and the airboat ride are not included with private transportation. Tickets must be purchased directly at the park.
If you’re driving yourself from Miami Beach, allow extra time for traffic and plan ahead for parking. Many visitors choose a route toward the Everglades area via the mainland. If you want, we can also arrange private transportation instead of self-driving.
Please message us first. We may be driving and, as a safety and courtesy policy, we do not take calls while transporting passengers.
