I really wanted to have a fun and sort of active day in Florida so I picked this place. The tour at Everglades Holiday Park takes you to the middle of the Everglade with an airboat which is a really cool experience itself and then there you get to see alligators 🐊 closely. After the Everglade tour, “gator boys” perform and you get to hold an alligator with your hands if you’re brave enough.
The Everglade airboat tour was a really unique experience 🚣♀️ 👌🏻
This slow moving river with these green leaves is called Everglade and it’s a national preserve.
Among the Everglades’ abundant wildlife are the endangered leatherback turtle 🐢 .

Right where we were at the airboat it started to rain. Look how beautiful it is.

After the Everglade and the airboat tour, “gator boys” did a little show of little tricks with alligators and doing crazy stuff like this picture below. If you are brave enough you would do the same thing as this guy is doing in the picture or just simply sit on its back and take a picture.
