We will be arriving around 6:00 pm at MIA in a few weeks and have to be in Marco Island for dinner the following night. It seems to me that the most logical way to have time in the Everglades would be to take the Tamiami Trail to the Shark Valley entrance. I need suggestions/advice as to where to stay and get a reasonably good dinner upon arriving at MIA. If we went straight to RT41 are there accommodations along the way or should we just stay near the airport and go first thing in the morning?
