Thank you to our local educators for your continued support of our programming. We are currently working with teachers who submitted registrations. We will do everything we can to provide trips for as many groups as possible. If you submitted a registration, but have not yet heard from us, we will be contacting you soon.

Does your school have an alternative schedule? If you are interested in trips during FCAT testing, contact us with this form.

At Shark Valley...
Students and teachers explore the vast Shark Valley Slough on a narrated open-air tram tour. Alligators, wading birds, turtles and fish are just a few of the residents commonly encountered.

During the excursion, students learn about and experience first hand the watershed of the Everglades. Rangers challenge students to think about their own connections to this important watershed. The trip includes a short hike to the observation tower for a bird’s eye view!
