Okefenokee Expeditions
Okefenokee Guided Paddles
Day Trips & Overnight Expeditions
Step into one of America’s most awe-inspiring wild places with a guided trip through the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge. Known for its sprawling cypress forests, glassy blackwater, and abundant wildlife, the Okefenokee offers a paddling experience unlike anywhere else!
Our small-group guided tours are designed to be both adventurous and restorative—whether you choose a half-day, full-day journey, or an overnight expedition, you’ll drift through winding channels, spot native birds and wildlife, and learn about the swamp’s unique history and ecology all lead by our experienced guides.
No two trips are ever the same, but each one promises quiet moments of beauty and a deep connection to this unforgettable landscape.

Private Okefenokee Overnight Expeditions
& Paddle Camping
For the true adventurer, our guided overnight paddle camping trips offer the chance to fully immerse yourself in the magic of the swamp!
By day, we travel deeper into the refuge—through cypress tunnels, open prairies, and winding waterways alive with birdsong and wildlife.
By night, we camp on designated platforms tucked within the swamp, surrounded by the quiet under a star-filled sky.
Meals are prepared together in the heart of nature and evenings bring time to relax, swap stories, and take in the stillness. These multi-day journeys allow you to slow down, disconnect, and experience the Okefenokee as few ever do—unhurried, wild, and unforgettable!
