Common questions.

Spotty. AT&T and Verizon usually work, but be prepared for slow speeds. Download maps and confirm bookings before you leave Naples or Marco Island.
Camellia Street Grill, City Seafood, and Triad Seafood are all within a 5-minute drive in Everglades City. All have great fresh-caught seafood.
The Ivey House Inn in Everglades City is the closest quality option (5 minutes away). Rod & Gun Club has historic rooms. Marco Island and Naples both have lots of options 35-50 minutes away.
Small soft-side coolers fit easily in the boat. Hard coolers aren't ideal — limited deck space. Bring water and snacks — we recommend it, especially on longer tours.
Yes. Paved, well-maintained, and scenic. The final stretch across the Chokoloskee Causeway is genuinely beautiful — built up over a wetland with mangroves on both sides.

See the real Everglades.
