Lille gruppe Laura og Whitney Plantation Tour fra New Orleans
Beskrivelse
Gå ud over New Orleans for at besøge to store Louisiana-plantager ved bredden af Mississippi-floden. På Whitney Plantation kan du se de barske realiteter og rå historiske fakta om en mørk side af amerikansk historie. Slavefortællingerne og kunstværket genskaber en verden af en sydlig sukkerplantage før borgerkrigen og et mindesmærke til ære for livet for de slaver, der arbejdede der. Tag en kort køretur ned ad Great River Road, beundre andre plantager på afstand og lær deres unikke historier. Hold pause foran Oak Alley Plantations berømte esplanade, før du ankommer til dit sidste stop, Laura Plantation. Hør personlige historier om dem, der boede der, omgivet af fejende sukkerrørsmarker og historisk betydningsfulde slavekvarterer. Denne lille gruppe tur giver et begrænset antal mennesker mulighed for at sikre en mere personlig opmærksomhed fra din guide.
Turmuligheder
Rejseplan
Din tur tilbage i tiden til Antebellum South begynder med afhentning fra dit New Orleans hotel. Rejs med din lille gruppe med varevogn langs søen Ponchartrain som din guide deler fakta og historier om plantakultur.
Den blev for nylig åbnet for offentligheden og afslører de barske realiteter og rå historiske fakta om denne mørke side af amerikansk historie. På din selvguidede vandretur vil du se slavehytter, en frihedskirke, fritliggende køkken og et ejerhus fra 1790'erne. Gæster vil bruge deres egne mobiltelefoner til at få adgang til en speciel Whitney Tour App. Alle billetbekræftelser vil indeholde et link til at downloade den. Besøgende opfordres til at medbringe deres egne høretelefoner for hygiejnisk sikkerhed.

Great experience right from the booking directly with Isabelle. Very experienced, friendly, knowledgeable professional. Very comfortable ride in a small max 6 person van (there were only 4 in the van). Informative in the car descriptions and history. The Guides at the Plantation were very knowledgeable, interesting and fun. We especially like the contrast between the Whitney vs the Laura history.
Experiences, knowledge of the Isabelle, comfort of the tour van and patience of Isabelle was top notch. I loved the entire experience. I will recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing tour of this beautiful amazing city full of rich culture and humble, polite people.
Oh wow! Thanks so much Ms Rhonda, it was truly a pleasure to give you your tour! I hope you come back down to NOLA soon! Cordially, Isabelle C.
I liked the guide at Laura Plantation. I wish Whitney Plantation had a human guide instead of the audio one.
Very good trip! Super knowledgeable and friendly. Great communication.
Excellent tour. Rene was knowledgeable I learned a lot about New Orleans history and got tips on where to go and do. He was on time and outgoing. Had a great time.
Thanks for sharing your positive feedback! I will tell Rene and we are so happy you had such a great time on our Plantation tour! Cordially, Isabelle C.
Great tour and guide. Murial was great and Isabelle tours thinks of everything. We got a nice reminder text with a pic of the tour van picking us up. Large umbrellas and rain coats were available if we needed them and we even had a group Pic sent to us after. Definately reccommend this tour and tour group.
Thank you! I am so glad you enjoyed our driver-guide Muriel; yes we text every guest a reminder with pick up details before every tour, and over the many decades we’ve being giving tours we learned such details do matter! Please come back to NOLA soon. Isabelle C.
This tour was very educational and and lightning. Giselle was an excellent tour guide and an absolute fount of knowledge about New Orleans history. Her personality was wonderful and she kept us entertained. The Laura plantation was not open so we went to the Destrehan plantation instead. I highly recommend taking this tour.
Thank you so much, Miss Keli. We appreciate you taking the time to write this awesome review. I’m so happy you enjoyed our two-Plantations tour yesterday. I Will forward it to Gisele, I know that’ll make her day! Isabelle C.
We were picked up for our Airbnb by Giselle. The time to the Laura plantation was filled in by Giselle with all kinds of interesting information about the past of Louisiana and the plantations. A great preparation for the visit itself. Giselle has been a great guide.
Heel erg bedankt voor deze zeer mooie recensie, Harry Ik zal het doorsturen naar Gisele! We hopen dat je ons snel weer komt bezoeken. Hartelijke groet, Isabelle Cossart
The company is very competent. The van arrived on time and was new and very clean. Giselle demonstrated deep knowledge, not only about the visits, but also about the history of New Orleans, in a light and fun way. I was alone, but I never felt lonely. Super recommend the company!!
Gizelle, with Tours by Isabelle, was our tour operator and was absolutely amazing. She showed us so much and had such in-depth knowledge of the area. Our tour guide at the Laura Plantation was, of all people, a nice lady by the name of Laura. She had such in-depth knowledge of the plantation. I've visited Oak Alley, and by far enjoyed the Laura and Whitney tours so much better. Gizelle kept the commentary going on the entire bus ride. She was absolutely amazing. Thank you Gizelle and Tours by Isabelle!
What a wonderful review! Gisele and I thank you for it! You make our day! I will also forward it to the Manager at Laura Plantation. Please come again to visit us soon. Cordially, Isabelle C.
