Marco Island's most unique sightseeing tour!
The Marco Island Safari Truck launched its first tour in January of
2026. Our safari truck is an "open-air" sightseeing experience,
so you can take in the sounds and feel the Florida breeze. That's right...
no stuffy tour bus here! While we are driving, we'll teach you about the
history of Marco Island, point out interesting landmarks and view celebrity
homes. We'll even have the chance to see some fun local wildlife like from
the comfort of the safari truck, including: gopher tortoises, burrowing
owls, bald eagles, osprey and huge green iguanas. Kids will enjoy the on-board
scavenger hunt and try to win a prize. It doesn't matter if you're a first
timer to Marco Island or a local... This is
the most fun you can have
on land while visiting Marco Island. Sit back, relax and enjoy the ride.

Friendly, knowledgeable tour guides with a sense of humor!
Your tour guide & safari truck driver, Glenn, started visiting Marco
Island when he was 1 years old and has called it home for a long time. Shortly
after Glenn moved to Marco Island, he started
Paddle
Marco Kayak Tours. Glenn operated that company for 10 years and helped
over 100,000 customers experience the nature of Marco Island by the seat
of a kayak in the mangrove tunnels. Glenn sold Paddle Marco in 2025 and
he created the Marco Island Safari Truck Tour. Glenn also wrote the best
selling "
Goodnight
Marco Island" book back in 2021. It's the kid-friendly, adult story
time book that pokes fun at everyday occurrences on Marco Island. It involves
crazy drivers, rules, regulations, permits & people... It's trouble
in paradise and the book is guaranteed to make you laugh! You can purchase
it
here on our website or on board the safari truck
during your tour. Glenn's local knowledge and his guiding experience is
sure to leave you with lasting memories.
Involved in the Marco Island Community.
When Safari Truck tours aren't departing, you can find Glenn volunteering
as head coach of the Marco Island little league team. The Marco Island Safari
Truck Tour also gives back to the community by donating free rides for multiple
charities, including Camp Able, where disabled kids get to ride on the Safari
Truck for free and enjoy Marco Island's wildlife for a week straight. Glenn
also worked closely with local Collier County government officials to help
protect 3 parcels of land that were destined to be developed. These 3 pieces
of land are now forever part of Collier County conservation properties that
protect our burrowing owls, gopher tortoises and bald eagles and the Safari
Truck drives right past them on the tour.
