Virtual Tour - Mote SEA Trek

If you have a computer, internet connection and a webcam, we can connect to you. Our virtual tours are live, two-way, interactive experiences between your group and our laboratory in Florida. We connect your audience to our STEM subject matter experts and engage their curiosity with science demonstrations and lively animal encounters. We can see and hear your learners and they can see and hear us via private, safe, interactive videoconferencing connections.

Visit our Virtual Learning Page for more information and to schedule your program.
