2-day South Beach Getaway with Dolphin Encounter

After an early morning departure from Orlando, travel to the amazing Florida Everglades National Park and jump aboard a classic airboat for an exciting cruise through the wetlands in search of local wildlife including alligators and turtles.

This thrilling wind-in-your-hair ride reaches speeds of up to 30 miles per hour across the “river of grass”. Afterwards get up close and personal at an Alligator and Snake handling show where you get the chance to learn, hold, feel, and get your pictures taken with these amazing animals.

Continue to Miami with its Palm-fringed beaches and striking art deco architecture. Here you visit Miami’s Bayside shopping area with its designer shops, boutiques and eateries and wonderful views.

Your accommodation is provided right in the heart of the Art Deco District in Miami South Beach, just seconds away from restaurants, shops, museums, night clubs and the beach itself. Once you check-in to your hotel, you have the rest of the day and evening free to explore the area at leisure and top up your tan on world famous South Beach.

Day Two is the highlight of this fantastic excursion because its time for an amazing swim with dolphins! During your swim you get to experience a whole host of behaviors including dorsal tow pulls, belly rubs, toe pushes, handshakes and the best of all a dolphin kiss! Remember that dolphin interaction is guaranteed! The dolphin swim programme lasts around 2 hours in total and includes 30 minutes in the water with the dolphins.

Those that select the non-Dolphin swim ticket are more than welcome to accompany family members to the dolphin facility to observe the experience. Alternatively, you can stay in South Beach for further exploration. If you choose to swim with the dolphins you still have the afternoon in Miami to top off that golden Florida tan on South Beach before leaving for Orlando at about 4.00pm.
