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!

Went out yesterday on the buggy and had a great time! Even though its dry season Shane was sure to make it worth our while . Taking us back into the swamp showing us orchids and teaching us about wildlife. We had a 5 year old with us who enjoyed driving the buggy with his dad. Had a great time!

This tour was disappointing and not worth $123 a person. First of all, the directions states that the location was 2.5 miles after turning onto I41 from cr29. This was incorrect. I had to drive 5 miles further then 7 miles onto a gravel/dirt road before finding the buggy parked on the side of the road. The driver Duane tried to stretch the 4 hour long trip to justify the trip. In short he showed us two pools with some alligators, stopped to show us a "shy" porcupine and he jumped on and off the buggy to show us fencing posts. Needless to say, Duane's incessant country drawl chatter was hard to follow. All in all, I would not recommend this tour. Maybe it's better during the rainy season, but I'm not going to do a comparison.

The driver and guide Shane made this an outstanding experience even for my wife and a good friend who are not outdoor people. He was every knowledgeable and extremely enthusiastic. He showed us several things that I imagine most guides would not. This is a great activity for the area!!
