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!

Ashley was an incredible tour guide. We had a smaller group of 4 adults and one child (6yr old girl) and the tour was amazing. There were several alligator sightings and birding opportunities. Their knowledge of the swamp and the history of the area added to the overall experience. Ashley spent a large amount of time with the 6 yr old taking her walking through the swamp and showing her all the different plans, fish and we even found several fossils. Ashley's warmth and charm with children really made it a special trip that we cant wait to come back at a different season and experience a different tour.

We set off at 9am for an adventure in the Preseve with Captain Bill. We saw alligators, owls, birds and a hawk..Hawkins... many of the animals were hiding today. Captain Bill tried really hard to find us things to see. We saw many beautiful flowers and trees during our trip. Make sure to bring bug spray and boots (if you have them for walking off the path). It was fun being out and exploring while being covered from the sun. We had our own private tour since we had a group of 4.

Outstanding experience!! We had planned to visit Florida over the last 2 years, but COVID prevented us from coming both times. We had booked with Captain Steve's Swamp Buggy before COVID and it was one of our top bucket list things we were really looking forward to doing. Captain Steve kept our original reservation and we finally got to go this week! It was everything we thought it would be! He is personable and funny and extremely knowledgeable. The swamp buggy was very comfortable, which i didnt expect. Very comfortable seating. It rode really nice. We saw deer, an alligator, a beautiful owl and gorgeous ecosystems that changed throughout our ride. The Everglades are just gorgeous.This experience was worth the wait and I highly recommend it to everyone!!
