Everglades: Small group boat & walking tour with guideYou’ll join a small group for a quiet boat ride through the Everglades’ 10,000 Islands with a local guide who knows every bird call and dolphin hangout.

Suitable for all fitness levels and available in English or Spanish; minimum age is 12, and at least two people must book together.Is it for me?At 90 minutes, the tour fits neatly into a morning or afternoon without consuming your whole day—you see the Art Deco District and the quieter streets behind it, then have time for lunch, shopping or another neighborhood before sunset.
Anna Maria Island Boat Tour: Snorkeling, Paddleboarding, DolphinsA private boat charter around Anna Maria Island in Sarasota with a USCG Master-Licensed Captain, snorkeling gear, paddleboards and a floating water mat included. You decide what happens each trip—hunt for sand dollars, paddleboard, swim with dolphins or anchor on a sandbar—and the captain knows the spots tourists miss and where manatees and live sand dollars actually are. Alcoholic beverages are welcome; bottled water and ice are provided.Is it for me?The captain speaks English and narrates the trip as it unfolds, so anyone in your group can follow the route and the wildlife moments without needing to read a script or follow along on a map. Book this if your group wants to decide on the fly—no itinerary set in stone, no crowded boat, no rental fees tacked on at the end.
Private Clearwater Kayaking: Paddle to Secluded IslandA 2.5-hour private kayak adventure from North Clearwater Beach takes you across the Intracoastal Waterway to a secluded spoil island where you have roughly an hour to swim, search for shells, play beach games and relax. The route passes waterfront homes and local wildlife—dolphins and manatees frequent these waters. Stable, beginner-friendly kayaks and a relaxed pace mean first-time paddlers enjoy it as much as experienced ones. Towels, snacks, cold water, a Bluetooth speaker and beach games are included; the guide adjusts the pace to your group.Is it for me?Book this private tour if you want to paddle yourself rather than sit in a group, and if you'd rather spend half your time exploring an island at your own pace than paddling the whole way—the split between water time and island time is what makes this different from a continuous guided paddle.
Wynwood Walls & Buggy Tour Miami: Street Art & MuralsYou arrive 15 minutes early, meet your local artist guide, and board a safety-belt-equipped buggy for a one-hour cruise through Wynwood's outer streets and hidden murals. After the ride, you use your general admission ticket to explore 35+ outdoor murals, 12 sculptures, and 3 indoor galleries at your own pace, with three minutes of complimentary spray painting included. The whole experience takes a few hours, and you leave with a re-entry wristband and the context that turns street art from decoration into neighborhood history.Is it for me?Pick this if you want to see Wynwood's street art and neighborhood history without arranging your own transport or spending time in entry lines — the buggy covers the outer district in one hour, and the general admission ticket lets you spend as long as you want inside the museum grounds afterward.
Kayaking at sunset in Islamorada with LED lightsKayak at sunset in Islamorada, departing the marina as the sky turns pink and orange, paddling through Tavernier Creek and a narrow mangrove channel with a live guide. Once dark, your guide attaches a battery-powered LED light to the kayak's underside, casting a green glow that lets you see the water below while you navigate the calm shallows; on the return, you pass through a man-made canal lit with multicolored lights. The outing runs two hours and includes the kayak, guide, and bottled water.Is it for me?The guide speaks English or Spanish, so choose the language that matches yours at checkout. The two-hour paddle is calm-water navigation, not a fitness test, so it suits anyone comfortable sitting in a kayak for the duration—infants can ride on an adult's lap, and the guide handles the technical parts of steering through the mangrove channel.
30-Minute Ocean Drive Segway Tour: South Beach Art DecoA 30-minute Segway tour of South Beach's Ocean Drive in Miami takes you past Art Deco hotels, restaurants and ocean views with a live guide in English or Spanish.

Minimum age is 12; participants must weigh between 100 and 260 lbs. and be in good health. A $250 refundable security deposit is required at check-in.Is it for me?You're riding the Segway yourself — not watching a demonstration — so this suits anyone who wants to move through South Beach under their own control and see the Art Deco strip at a pace faster than walking but slow enough to actually look around. If thirty minutes feels too short for a full-day tour but you want to experience the neighborhood without renting a car or joining a bus, this one fits the time you have.

Arrive 30 minutes early with a valid photo ID, and bring no more than a camera bag.Is it for me?Book this if you want to see Miami's coastline, islands, and mansions from above without sharing the helicopter with strangers, and you're traveling with at least one other person. The private cabin and noise-cancelling headsets are what make the difference between pointing at landmarks and actually hearing why they matter.
