Overview

Capt. Steve emphasizes a quality, real feel for the mysterious Florida Everglades. He was the first to commercially guide Swamp Buggy Adventures Tours within the Big Cypress National Preserve. BCNP is a division of The Everglades Nation Park. Capt. Steve’s is never to be confused with one of the typical 30 minute roadside attractions. For starters, you’ll never have to wait in line. There are none. This personal tour caters to your family and is both exciting and educational. Enjoyed by people of all ages. National Geographic lists Captain Steve’s Swamp Buggy Adventures a “Must Do“ when visiting Florida’s Big Cypress National Preserve.

Itinerary

  • 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!

Great day exploring the Everglades!!!!

Published on Oct, 2024

What an incredible half day spent with Captian Adam in Big Cypress National Preserve. This was a birthday present from my husband and it was one of his best yet. We learned so many interesting things about the history and vegetation of the area. My husband, who also grew up in the area, and Adam had the best stories of running around as kids here. I would recommend this to everyone who wants a taste of the real Florida. Thanks Captian Adam for a extra fancy day!

An great tour of Big Cypress Preserve

Published on Aug, 2024

My wife and I did the trip this afternoon with Captain Daniel. The trip was a lot of fun. Lots to see and Daniel was great to stop and point out interesting things we would have missed. He grew up in the area and knows much about the area and people. An adventure worth taking.

This is the buggy tour you are looking for!

Published on May, 2024

Capt. Daniel was amazing. Super friendly, informative, full of stories from a lifetime in the area and loving nature. No rush; we were able to stop as often as we wanted and even get out and explore a bit with a hearty dose of "there's nothing out here that wants to go out of its way hurt you" encouragement. Can't wait to come back for our next tour with Capt. Daniel!

Research before your spend!

SUPPORT LOCALS! Some of the tourist attractions in town aren’t locally owned and operated anymore. We almost did the airboat tour today, but ran into Capt Steve, last min and changed our plan to the swamp buggy. Glad we were able to have such a private first hand look at the Everglades. This is a must-see if you’re looking for a taste of what this area use to look like from someone born and raised. Capt Sherald kept the excursion so fun for us! Bring whatever drinks and snacks you want, water is provided in a shared cooler. Tour is approximately 3-4 hours, would recommend a long sleeve you can take on and off.

Everglades like no other

Published on Apr, 2024

Captain Daniel's took us out on a half day half night ride very informative and lots of fun. We got to see what the real everglades looked like.. lots of crawfish, frogs, turtles, snake, gators, fish and much more. So many beautiful cypress trees and air plants. The star at night were awesome also. We had alot of fun and will be going again soon. If you go ask to book with captain Daniel's.
