Great experience for couples, families, or visitors in general! 90 minutes of experiencing the Okefenokee by boat and seeing plants, animals and nature in general. Our tour guide was knowledgeable, answered any and all questions we might have and I’d like to say that everyone involved learned a lot about the swamp, it’s history and future. Highly recommend if you’re in the area and booking beforehand is probably a good idea too

We loved the boat tour! It far exceeded our expectations! The swamp is incredible and must be seen to truly appreciate! Rhodes was our guide and he did a awesome job and proved extremely knowledgeable about the swamp and animals in it. We highly recommend this tour, it’s worth every penny.

Amazing to visit the largest black water We enjoyed our time and afternoon at the Okefenokee swamp Park. The train ride felt like a step back in time and was wonderful. The history is something everyone in the area should know.
