Our tour guide literally quit on the day of the tour, no back up. Stacy our fabulous bus driver!, had to try to give the tour and drive the bus safely with one hand…. She was amazing and I still feel like we missed out on a lot of the reason we went on the tour. Do yourself a favor and skip the swamp tour.
