The family and I are going on vacation to Florida in early March and want to do an Everglades fan boat tour. Can anyone recommend an guide/outfitter/whatever you call them? Or I suppose maybe more important, if you had a bad experience, share that with me? Thanks!

Everglades Holiday Park is about the biggest , they have covered boats so you don't have to deal the elements , kinda cool place all around .

Yes , but they're bigger with a top so you're out of the sun , and they stay in the canals as opposed to running over the vegetation . Lots to see big gators and birds .
Excuse the ignorant questions as I know nothing about this, but wouldn't we want to go out of the channels on a smaller boat to see things? My kids love animals, so seeing critters would be nice (gators and stuff). At this point, I really don't know the right questions to ask or how to plan this thing! I will check out their website now!

Running through the cattails and sometimes Sawgrass without a cover translates to being covered in said vegetation. It doesn't all lay down as they drive over it. Flies up in your face. Along with every insect attached to said vegetation.

Even in the channels down around the everglades there will be a lot to see.
