Everglades Air Tours offers scenic 30-minute flights over the heart of the Everglades, providing visitors with an aerial view of the region’s wetlands, waterways, and wildlife. Each tour follows a single loop, flown low and slow over sawgrass marshes, tree islands, and tidal creeks. Captains provide narration during the flight, pointing out landmarks and explaining how water moves through the ecosystem. Passengers may also spot wading birds, alligators, and other wildlife.

Flights depart from Everglades Air Park aboard a twin-engine Cessna Super Skymaster, with space for four passengers so everyone has a window seat. The company’s captains hold ATP and commercial multi-engine ratings, and the aircraft is maintained to FAA regulations. Tours cost $90 per adult and $60 per child aged 12 and under; children of all ages are welcome with an adult. Guests are advised to arrive about 15 minutes early for a safety briefing. Flights depend on weather, and cancellations for safety qualify for a full refund or free rescheduling.
