Okefenokee & Satilla Expeditions LLC is here to share the beauty of Okefenokee Swamp and the rivers of the Southeast! We provide guided eco and history tours in Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge and beyond, led by Jenny Sweat, a local professional naturalist with over 16 years of experience teaching about southern ecosystems. Her family roots in the Okefenokee date back to the mid-1800s and from that heritage and her life spent in the Great Outdoors, she draws her love and passion for sharing the Swamp. We offer 2-6 hours long naturalist-led Okefenokee Swamp tours and local river tours (by motorized boat, canoe, or kayak), all-inclusive multi-day wilderness camping trips in Okefenokee and local rivers, and shuttles for self-guided adventurers! We are proud to offer local, authentic experiences and love to share our passion for Okefenokee with our guests!
We offer personalized, private guided tours for solo adventurers, couples, families, friends, groups, company retreats, and everything in between! Our Okefenokee Swamp tours explore the prairies of the two east-side entrance points and the forests of the western side. Our river trips are 2-3 day adventures on the Satilla, St. Marys, or Suwannee Rivers.
Please note- we are a mobile adventure company- we meet our guests at certain locations- we do not have a store open to the public.

Here are a few of our reviews from TripAdvisor and Google:
"The tour was amazing, it certainly exceeded our expectations. Jenny was experienced, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic. Her love of the area and what she does is clearly evident. We had a wonderful time and would go with her again and certainly would recommend others experience the Okefenokee with Jenny."
"Jenny gave us a wonderful swamp tour. She even arranged a beautiful day for us. Her knowledge of the area, clear presentation of facts, and answers to our questions added to our enjoyment. The walk on Billy's Island and explanation of its history was well worth doing. Gator watchers' paradise."
"This was an excellent kayak adventure. Although we were concerned about potential thunderstorms, the team kept us advised, and we were able to enjoy the most glorious morning. We explored the swamp and saw many birds, alligators, and interesting plants. Michael, being born and raised in the area, was a wealth of knowledge and a great storyteller. Would definitely recommend."
