What To Expect

Big Cypress National Preserve

Me and my family are 6th generation "Gladesmen" and we'd love to show you the Big Cypess National Preserve. This is the largest subtropical swamp in the USA, where plants and animals grow and live no where else in the world. See the elusive Panther, black bear, wading birds, deer, its a photo opportunity of a life time!

I was born and raised in Florida. I learned more about the Everglades in 4 hours from Steve than I could imagine. His family has been in Florida since the 17 century. Totch Brown was his neighbor. Now that's something. He can tell you stories about Totch. Steve is a big, burly guy who loves his family and what he does. Steve gave me a small discount. I gave it right back to him in a tip. I love seeing people love what they do .Enjoy your visit.

if I could leave a ZERO, I would. The buggy broke down and he stated he would refund our money then he refused!! He asked if we all wanted to crowd with another group on to another buggy that was made for 5 or 6 people plus the 4 with my group, there was NO way for 4 hours we would do that. Then he responded to me by email and was rude ... do NOT take this tour , go to WOOTENs you will not be disappointed!

You had a chance to finish your tour and not a minute late the other swampbuggy was sitting next to you. And you decided not to go so why would I refund when you could of went If someone was sick or other problems that's a difference I'm sorry you booked and could of went I have could of put other people or booked others for that tour.Sorry but I'm a small company and if you read my rules you'd understand.

My husband, two daughters (6 and 2), and I went out with Captain Daniels on a swamp buggy tour this afternoon. It was a delightful experience for us all! My whole family loves nature, we are all from Florida but Captain Daniels still taught us some very interesting things out there! He was great with the kids and everyone had the best time! Very laid back and a wonderful day spent out in the Everglades exploring and learning. We loved it and will definitely be back!!!
