US2U Tours
Bahamas ferry products require valid passport; customs time applies.
Quick answer: US2U Tours — Miami Beach area adventure days including Everglades airboats, Key West marine activities, and high-speed ferry escapes toward Bimini or Grand Bahama. MTK Guides is an independent request hub: you send an unpaid request, we confirm the live product, then we email an invoice. No card charge on submit.

What to put in request notes
Hotel name and cross streets or cruise pier, party size, ages, language preference, must-have versus nice-to-have activities, and hard constraints such as flights or all-aboard times. Brand preference belongs in the same paragraph.
Passport ready or the ferry ends at the gate
Passport readiness is a boarding gate, not a suggestion. Expired documents end the day at the terminal. Closed-loop cruise rules do not replace a ferry passport.
Beach to Port Everglades transfer time
Beach-to-Port Everglades transfer time is real. Build customs buffers both ways. Keep evenings free after return.
Seasickness on the crossing
Seasickness planning matters more on ferry crossings than on Overseas Highway coaches. Midship seats, light breakfast, and your preferred remedy help.
Bimini is not Dry Tortugas
Do not confuse Bimini with Dry Tortugas. Tortugas is a U.S. National Park ferry from Key West with fort time — different documents and different base city.
One adventure hero per calendar day
Pick one adventure hero per calendar day. Everglades plus Bahamas ferry same day is a classic miserable stack we will push back on.
Do not assume a lobby pickup
Confirm-then-invoice only. Write transfer needs clearly so we do not assume a lobby pickup that does not exist for your ferry package.

Agent tip
For Bahamas ferry groups, collect passport last names exactly as printed. Mismatched tickets and documents waste immigration time. Tell us headcount early for transfer vans when Beach hotels are scattered.

Sample week placement
Passport ferry days need empty evenings afterward. Do not schedule Everglades the same dawn. Collect passport names exactly as printed before you request. Beach-to-port transfers deserve their own line in notes — assumed pickups miss boats.
What success looks like
Documents ready, transfer plan explicit, customs buffer respected, pay only after confirm.
Island hour prioritization
Beach club, lunch, or golf-cart loop — pick one primary. Immigration and ferry boarding eat edges. Alcohol on a rough return crossing is a personal risk if you get motion sick.
Internal next steps
Bimini ferry listing · do not confuse with Dry Tortugas.
Final checklist before you request
Passport ready for every traveler, transfer yes/no, island priority (beach/lunch/cart), and empty evening after customs. Never same-day Everglades. Names must match documents. Confirm then invoice.
Passport day logistics travelers underestimate
US2U-style Bimini ferry days are immigration days, not Keys highway days. Every traveler needs a valid passport for this ferry class — including kids. Closed-loop cruise exceptions do not replace ferry passport rules. Port Everglades timing, possible Beach transfers, and empty evenings after customs matter more than a pretty island brochure. Pick beach, lunch, or golf-cart priority before you board; free time evaporates if you try to do all three. Motion-sensitive guests should plan midship seating and remedies in advance.
Never stack this with an Everglades airboat the same day. Weather and customs can delay the return — keep evening flights soft or skip them. Cash backup helps on island even when cards work. If Dry Tortugas was the real dream, that ferry leaves from Key West on a different product path. We confirm transfer yes/no, passenger names matching documents, and the live ferry class before any invoice. This page is a request hub, not the ferry ticket window.
