One of the biggest and most stunning swamps in the United States happens to be located right between Georgia and Florida. This 438,000-acre wetland can be pure magic when explored, especially with the chance to stumble upon tons of wildlife in their natural habitats. While taking a day tour might be the simplest way to get in the views to this swamp, we have a nighttime tour that will rival them all. Are you brave enough to take this tour in Georgia?

Okefenokee Swamp is sprawling — nearly 500,000 acres of pure natural beauty and coincidentally one of the world’s greatest wetland wildernesses.
