ActiveFor people who enjoy walking as much as two miles a day, perhaps to explore historic neighborhoods or a nature trail.

ChallengingGet ready to keep up with our highest-energy group. These demanding — and rewarding — programs are for seasoned outdoor enthusiasts.

This program was excellent in every way! The perfect mix of environment, science, natural and historic information! Loved the individuals we traveled with and the small size of the group. Best of all was our extremely competent group leader, Alberto! Would definitely recommend!

it was great to be out of doors in a balmy climate after a cold winter at home. The tropics of the U.S. are facinating.

This trip was fascinating. The group of 25 was on time and great to have has traveling companions. We visited 3 state parks and 3 national parks like none other in the US! We had great weather. The free time in Key West was perfect and allowed for us to choose what we wanted to see. The guides were great in keeping the schedule on time so we didn't miss anything. Great trip.

If you enjoy the Florida encnvironment you will love this trip. Lots of national parks and state parks. Key Biscayne is just gorgeous and Key Largo too. I loved Pigeon Key and Dry Tortuga.

It's a bit too long -- shorten it a bit.

I had a tremendous time in the Everglades and Florida keys. What a great way to experience such an amazing place. My thanks to the outstanding guides and support staff who really did an incredible job.

Pick-up and return transport to airport very convenient. Tour leaders supportive and helpful. Itinerary (3 national parks, etc.) fascinating. Accommodations en route excellent. Provided meals very good (restaurants and picnics). Travel companions were a congenial group. All in all - a wonderful experience. Henry

Date attended: 11/11/12 - 11/17/12

I enjoyed the program. This was my first trip to the Keys and the Everglades and it was a great introduction. The free day in Key West allowed me to see the museums and historical sites that interested me. The trip leaders Estere and Betty did an excellent job managing the trip and the are very knowledgeable on the Keys and Everglades. The trip is rated Active (Easy, Moderate, Active, Moderately Challenging, Challenging). I think that the rating should be moved down to Moderate or there should be some hikes included of more than a half mile to bring up it to the Active level.

Julia from Wendell, NC Number of programs attended: 2
Date attended: 04/22/12 - 04/28/12

I can wholeheartedly recommend Road Scholar for discerning travelers. The combination of education with sightseeing creates a more fulfilling travel experience. We enjoyed the trip to Key West and Everglades immensely and will always treasure the trip we took to Grand Canyon when the organization was called Elderhostel. The quality of service has been superb.
