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!

Captain Steve took us out on the airboat! We learned so much about the area! The history of the Everglades, the plants/trees and the animals! Steve was knowledgeable and Fun! You can tell he really loves his job!! Then Shane took us out on the swamp buggy!! He also knew a lot about the area and kept us entertained throughout the trip! We were able to get off the buggy at times to look at animal tracks, alligators and plants. The equipment was in good condition and we always felt safe! These guys are the Real Deal!!!

My dad and i (59 and 24) went on a 4 hour swamp buggy tour of Big Cypress Nature Preserve today. We met up with our amazing tour guide, Shane, about 8 miles down on Turner River Road. From the start, Shane made us feel comfortable and excited for our trip! He first drove us down the road to spot some gators (which we did) and then we continued through the gates of the park. Throughout the tour we got to know each other, learned SO much about the local area and the Everglades and laughed a lot! We spotted deer, alligator babies, birds, and huge panther tracks!!! There were many opportunities to get out and walk around as well. We would both recommend taking a trip with this company and especially with Captain Shane!!! We were gone a full 4 hours so bring some snacks and drinks with you for an even better time. THANKS SHANE 😄
