(28)

Tour The Glades - Private Wildlife Tours is the Only all inclusive Private tour operator in the Everglades! Quality instead of quantity is our goal...which means our guests receive 100% of our attention. We can only do one (maybe two) trips per day which makes each one very special. This approach is better for the environment and hands down the best way to explore the Everglades & 10,000 Islands..

..just you and your own personal guide. Come with us in search of Alligator, Manatee, Black Bear, playful Dolphin and even the elusive Florida Panther! The Everglades is also a Birder's Paradise and we'll help you get your target species. We provide tours year round and all excursions are led by Local Naturalist Guides that provide EVERYTHING you'll need.

When the French were first exploring Florida, they brought along an accomplished artist by the name of Jacques La Moyone. La Moyone was to assist with mapmaking and documenting the new world of Florida for France He arrived at the mouth of the St. John’s river in 1564 with Rene Goulaine de Laudonnière, the founder of Fort Caroline on Florida’s East Coast.

La Moyone’s work is a peak into the world of the first people of Florida. He documented their customs, ceremonies, rituals, and even historic events during his travels through the state. My two favorite are the drawings depicting how the Florida natives harvested, alligator and deer. If you are a Florida historian, you will recognize his maps…..his other work is worth a closer look.

This is the elusive Sphinx Moth…. The pollinator for the equally as elusive Ghost Orchid.. considered one of the rarest orchids in the world. This guy decided to fly right into the window and pay us a visit!

If you’re not familiar with the ghost orchid, check out the book “ The Orchid Theif” by Susan Orlean….. and “Adaptation” with Nicolas Cage and Meryl Streep. Which was shot on location here in the Everglades.

We discovered this wounded alligator today. Its back left leg was reduced to a stump. I noticed other scarring around his head & neck… This was done by another (even larger) alligator!

The snowbirds are here in full force!!

These massive White Pelican migrate here each year from southern Canada and the Dakotas. They have the second largest wingspan only to the Condor, with the male White Pelican, reaching 9ft.

The fist settlers arrived in the 10,000 Islands & Western Everglades in the early 1800’s. Traces of their homesteads & personal belongings are still visible among the islands. These little clues along with some photos and and stories handed down to their ancestors, are all that remain.

Now this young man decided he wanted to come to the Everglades and catch his first snook and a python for his 15th birthday….So he did.

The python was a female just over 10ft and was sent to Florida Gulf Coast University for further studies. The snook wasn’t quite as big 😁 and was released in the 10,000 Islands. Thanks Kendra, Dallas and Happy Birthday Wyatt!!
