Great way to see some parts of Florida you would otherwise miss
Very knowledgeable guide to help us sort out the various wildlife we were seeing. While we went during the heat of the day and therefore mostly saw birds and alligators, we had a great conversation with our guide and he shared pictures from him phone of some of the other animals he'd seen on the trails. We are glad the Collier family set aside this land for wildlife and still allowed the tour to bring people in periodically to appreciate it. Very enjoyable 90 minutes!

Great Morning Adventure.
We found the Orange Jeep Tours website checking on things to do in and around Naples, South West, Florida. Staying at Marco Island we had a 40 mile drive to Ave Maria, but the hour drive was well worth it, we had booked the previous day over the telephone and we picked the 9.00am drive. The jeep was very comfortable, and we were fortunate to be the only couple on the tour, Mike our driver guide was excellent, knew the off road areas, and was full of information on the drive. The jeep tour was in an old cypress tree forest, and is only accessible through the jeep tour company, and can only be achieved by a 4 x 4 vehicle, the 2 hour drive was similar to a safari drive, looking for wildlife. We saw numerous footprints of Panthers, Bobcats and Bears, but did not manage to see them, due to the thick wooden area. We did get good sightings of various Hawks, Wild Turkeys, American Bittern, Black Racer Snake, Racoon, Alligators, Vultures plus smaller birds. It is well worth the drive, the jeep tour is great, and we spend the rest of the morning looking around the new university town of Ave Maria, a fascinating town only build 7 years ago. The cost of $35 per person for the trip was well worth it, but a bigger party (more than two) can get a better deal (maximum per jeep is 6) There are 2 cafés/restaurants in the town centre adjacent to the tours reception, so you can always get a drink and bite to eat.

This was my fourth trip with family members all outstanding
You will see so much at every turn, be alert and your trip will be awesome. Call ahead for the best time of day to take the trip as conditions can change.Plan to see Ava Maria before or after . The church is amazing as a place of worship and as a outstanding architectural design . The city is a beautiful concept and a unique layout carefully thought out with quality developers, no junk. I am an architect with 60 years experience and numerous design awards, so I know whereof I speak.
