Beginning November 1st, we are introducing a new experience... The Fakahatchee Island Heritage Tour. Fakahatchee Island is an ancient Calusa Indian mitten that was settled by local Everglades's families in the late 1800's. Departing in a very comfortable powerboat from Everglades City/Chokoloskee Island, we travel through Everglades National Park through the "gates" to Fakahatchee Bay. Along the way, we expect to encounter dolphins, manatees and large numbers of wading birds. Learning about the rich heritage and culture of the area while standing amongst the remains of the old homes, cisterns and grave sites is quite an experience. The island also hosts numerous native and invasive species of plants including orchids, bromeliads and one of the largest "pencil trees" we have ever seen. This two-hour experience departs at 9:00 and is just $79.95 for adults. You can make a reservation directly online by clicking here.

"Great 'back-to-nature' activity trip."
Reviewed August 22, 2011, Trip Advisor
"If you want an excursion that takes you off the beaten track, away from tourists, air boats and lets you get closer to nature then this is the trip for you! ... We were a family of 5, with 3 children ranging from 6, 8 and 11 years. Everyone enjoyed the canoeing and my 11 year old daughter maintains that it was one of the best days of our holiday; we saw alligators, the elusive green heron, spiders, orchids and bromeliads and would definitely use this company again..."
