Heron Now Boat Tours

My family had a great time on the sunset everglades tour! Mike was friendly and very knowledgeable, he answered all of our questions and gave interesting information and perspective on the wildlife. The sunset was absolutely gorgeous and we saw so many creatures!! Would highly recommend to anyone interested!!

My family and I so enjoyed our sunset boat tour. As bird lovers, we were happy to learn that Captain Mike is a biologist and ornithologist - he’s so knowledgeable and interesting to talk to. We saw gators, numerous kinds of birds, and a glorious sunset. I’d highly recommend this tour, and will no doubt go again.

Absolutely beautiful! We treated ourselves to a sunset tour guided by captain Mike. He made our trip! He was so personable and engaging. He was also very knowledgeable about the wildlife and the lands and waters of Florida. The pontoon was quite comfortable as well. Highly recommend the sunset tours!!!!

We recently went on a boat tour with Captain Mike that completely exceeded our expectations. The highlight was his knowledge of water birds and their habitat was nothing short of encyclopedic. From the moment we set off, he effortlessly identified every species we encountered-herons, egrets, ospreys, and even some rarer sightings—sharing fascinating facts about their behaviors, migration patterns, and nesting habits. What made the experience truly special was how he connected the birds to the broader ecosystem. He explained how the wetlands function, the importance of conservation, and even pointed out subtle signs of seasonal changes in the habitat. It felt like we were seeing the landscape through the eyes of a true expert and passionate naturalist. The boat was comfortable, the pace was relaxed, and there were plenty of opportunities for photos and questions. Whether you're a seasoned birder or just curious about local wildlife, this tour is an unforgettable way to explore nature from the water.

Mike gave an excellent tour on the Everglades- We got to see alligators and the sunset was magnificent! It’s already my second tour- I had to bring my friends - An experience not to miss!

This is an incredible way to see a section of the Everglades on a quiet, comfortable pontoon boat captained by a knowledgeable naturalist. My 90-year-old parents had no trouble boarding and sitting on the boat. Just walked right on from the dock. We all loved every second of it. Got to see alligators, all kinds of herons, etc., etc. Magical sunset tour!

We've taken the sunset cruise with Captain Mike twice. What an incredible way to spend time on the water. Beautiful vistas and Captain Mike is a very knowledgeable and informative. We highly recommend it!

Great trip today! Peaceful quiet ride with our wonderfully down to earth knowledgeable professional, Captain Mike. We thoroughly enjoyed the ride and learned even more about this beautiful refuge everyone should see. Suitable for all ages. Easy on/off. Will ride again for sure.
