lnhoney Posted March 29, 2005 #1 Share Posted March 29, 2005 Does any one know the cost of the evrglades tour in Miami that is offered on the ship? The price is not listed like the island tours are and we have alot of time before our flight. Trying to figure out what to do besides the beach. Thanks for the help!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joedog Posted March 29, 2005 #2 Share Posted March 29, 2005 Hi, I don't know the cost of the tour but if you have the ability to rent a car there are dozens of things to do on your own in the greater Miami area. We have gone to Parrot Jungle, Monkey Jungle, Miami Zoo, Butterfly something, Flamingo Gardens, Everglade Airboat ride, Lion Country Safari, Coral Castle, Museum of Science and Discovery, Jungle Queen Cruise. You can drive out on I75 (Alligator Alley) and see hundreds of alligators right from the road. I think just about everything I mentioned above is within a 30 mile radius of the Port of Miami (give or take a mile or two). I would suggest checking some Florida tourism websites and renting a car. Hope this helps. Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueJacketsFan1 Posted March 29, 2005 #3 Share Posted March 29, 2005 If you look further into the message board you will see that someone has posted the Carnival Caper for the Valor, with prices for it's Eastern Caribbean excursions. It stated that the Everglades excursion cost $35 per-person. It departs at 8:45 a.m. and last 3.5 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGrandparents Posted March 29, 2005 #4 Share Posted March 29, 2005 We did it last month and the cost is $35.00 per person. The return time will mostly depend on the time of the first flights of the people on your excursion. Ours had us at MIA by 1:30PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lnhoney Posted March 30, 2005 Author #5 Share Posted March 30, 2005 Thank you for the replies. It really helps when trying to figure how much money we will need to have after the cruise. Our flight doesn't leave until 8 p.m. and there is only sooo much a family can do at the airport before children start to get cranky.:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisin Bee Posted March 30, 2005 #6 Share Posted March 30, 2005 The best thing about the tour is that they will store your luggage on the bus until you go to the airport. If you rent a car you will need one big enough for your family and all your luggage. We did the tour. It was a blast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bankofdad Posted March 30, 2005 #7 Share Posted March 30, 2005 We're off of the Triumph on 4/16 (port Miami), but fly out of FLL. Does anyone know if they have a shuttle that will take you to FLL after this excursion? Our flight doesn't leave until 4PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pittypat Posted March 31, 2005 #8 Share Posted March 31, 2005 We took the Everglades tour in January 2005 after arriving back from the Southern Caribbean cruise. It was a good excursion and they took us back to the FLL airport with no problem. Hope this helps. pittypat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
