    My husband and I can not recommend this tour enough! It was a great price and a wonderful experience. Captain Ron truly made the trip special. As he was so friendly, knowledgeable, and full of stories throughout the trip. His passion for his job is evident, and he shares his love of the bayou and lake in such a way that will have you yearning to come back. 10/10 would recommend!

    One of the best lake tours i have done. $25 per person for 90+ mins is a steal. Do go for this tour if you are there. Captain Ron is very knowledgeable and tells history in details. He is very nice and polite and deals with kids v well. A MUST do. You may or may not see alligators but i was okay with that. Ample of parking in restaurant parking lot and near Capt Rons swamp tour office. Boat was clean and blankets were available for those feeling cold...

    If you are in Texas, make sure you take the tour on Caddo Lake. The place is so surreal , amazing and straight out of a horror movie. Captain Ron is very fun and provides a lot of info about the lake and its history. The tour is around 1.5 hrs and $25/person. Free parking Big Pines Lodge restaurant next to it Friendly staff Caddo lake state park - 12 min

    The middle of nowhere!

    If your interested in nature or the outdoors, this is for you! I thought tickets were cheap for the GREAT time we had. Fireman Ron was our captain, and he did a great job. This guy DOES like to talk! The 28 foot pontoon boat holds 16, and we had 10. Just right. Leaving from the Big Pines Lodge, we took off down the river, checking out all the great houses and docks. Yes, you need the lotto to afford one of these! Pretty soon, we entered a side channel, and within 10 minutes, we were in the "swamp". This is the largest bald cypress forest in the world, and it is awesome! Ron told us all about the trees, the birds, the fish, and yes, the alligators! The sights, sounds,and history of this place are amazing. Many years ago, this was actually a shipping channel. An hour and a half later, we were back at the dock. What an awesome adventure! I guarantee you and your family will enjoy this. I'll be back for sure!

    What a great experience! Captain Ron obviously loves his job and has a soft spot for Caddo Lake and its inhabitants. He shares his extensive knowledge of and love for the Lake with his guests while also making everyone on the boat laugh. Panda the dog is adorable! We really enjoyed her singing and how she sweetly chose us to lie next to on the tour. The Lake is surreal! It's definitely one of the most unique places you'll ever see.

    Amazing people, and beautiful scenery. Captain Ron is a great person and a wonderful represtative for the state of Texas.

    See all

    My family and I enjoyed our visit. We got to hold some animals and the guide was knowledgeable. It is worth a visit.
