Itinerario
Visita a la plantación de Oak Alley: la casa del renacimiento griego se remonta a 1837. Ubicado en los terrenos, hay un restaurante, una herrería, una tienda de souvenirs y equipos agrícolas antiguos. Es una experiencia integral de plantación. El recorrido por la casa de Oak Alley es realizado por guías con ropa de estilo plantación auténtica. Se requiere caminar para este recorrido. La casa de la plantación del restaurante y la tienda de recuerdos está a una cuadra de distancia. Hay bancos a lo largo del camino, a la sombra de los robles.
Los barcos de la gira de pantanos de Nueva Orleans están completamente narrados y nuestros capitanes son nativos de los pantanos de Barataria con antecedentes de caza de caimanes, pesca y captura. Te entretendrán y te sorprenderán con la ecología del pantano. ¡Han vivido la vida! Aquí, los pájaros, las serpientes, las tortugas, los animales de piel y los caimanes son los reyes del pantano y se pueden ver fácilmente en primavera, verano y otoño. Los cocodrilos hibernan durante los fríos meses de invierno, pero yacen en los bancos del pantano en los días más cálidos. Entonces, incluso en invierno, nuestros capitanes nativos a veces pueden encontrar un Gator asoleado en nuestro recorrido. La lenta deriva de nuestros botes turísticos a través de árboles cubiertos de musgo y pequeñas vías fluviales, brindará una amplia oportunidad para ver y fotografiar. Su comodidad está garantizada en nuestros barcos turísticos. Tienen un techo, baño, asientos acolchados y ventanas que se pueden subir o bajar durante el clima frío o lluvioso, junto con mucho espacio para estar de pie y caminar. Estos recorridos son entretenidos, educativos y emocionantes.

I have mixed feelings about this tour. The hotel pickup and drop-off were very convenient, and our bus driver from the hotel to the plantation was wonderful. She did a great job driving while also giving us an overview of the area along the way. That said, for the price of this tour, I think there should be both a dedicated driver and a dedicated tour guide. Asking one person to drive safely while also providing commentary doesn’t seem ideal. The plantation tour itself was led by a plantation employee, so it felt like we were mainly paying for transportation to and from the plantation rather than a guided experience provided by the tour company. The highlight of the day was definitely the swamp tour with Captain Ernie. He was fun, engaging, and genuinely passionate about the land. Hearing his stories made the experience memorable, and my family specifically waited to get on his boat because we had heard such great things about him. One disappointment was that some of the promotional photos showed visitors holding a baby alligator, and I was expecting that to be part of the experience. Unfortunately, that wasn’t offered during our tour. There is an opportunity to purchase lunch and drinks at the plantation, which is convenient if you’re hungry. However, the food was very disappointing. It will do if you need something quick, but don’t expect a great meal. Overall, the transportation and swamp tour were excellent, but I expected more value for the price, especially when it came to the plantation portion of the experience.
Both parts of the tour were great. Wish we could have seen more of the Oak Alley house. The swamp tour with Captain Ernie was terrific! You could tell he knows the ecology and biology of the area. Very educational, and fun. He explained why May-September are the best months for this tour if you want to see alligators. I will never look at a swamp or bayou the same way again. The only thing I would improve on is making sure guests know that the pick-up time is a 30 minute window.
The tour was simply excellent and is absolutely recommended. Organizationally, everything went perfectly. I was the only one on the bus who booked the swamp tour after Oak Alley. I was then directed to another bus on the way, which was not a problem at all. Oak Alley was very impressive. On the swamp tour, we saw so many alligators. This is how I hoped it would be.
The plantation tour was very informative. The house and grounds are beautiful. The swamp tour was my favorite part. Our guide, Captain Bobby, was amazing. He was very knowledgeable and gave us quite the show with feeding marshmallows to the alligators, petting them, kissing one on the head, and picking up a baby gator. He’s the guide you want if you do this tour.
Despite the rain - we had a great time at the plantation. Our swamp tour was fantastic - Ernie was great - very knowledgeable and really good fun.
Long ride for a brief experience. Always a possibility of severe thunderstorms curtailing activities. Rough riding van. Bayou tour should be called alligator tour, few other animals. Guides and drivers are patient and entertaining.
Thank you for the feedback. Please keep in mind that we do not have control over the wildlife and weather.
The plantation was beautiful and the guide was very informative. The swamp ride also did not disappoint and we were able to see several gators. I traveled with my husband and brother and our only complaint was that we felt rushed at the plantation especially in the guided tour of the main house.
Multiple bus transfers, with several hours spent on buses. Little time spent at Oak Alley to fully explore site. Wife got sick on bus from lack of A/C and ha had to return to hotel missing the second part of our tour.
Thank you for your feedback. The pickup is a 30 minute window, so we do sometimes have round-up drivers to pick up guests to expedite the pickup process so that we are on time. As for the AC, we do apologize. Will you kindly please give us more information on the driver and bus that day so we can address that problem? As for your wife missing the second part of the tour, we have on file that she was checked in for the tour. If this is inaccurate, please include this in your response. Our email is tickets@louisianaswamp.com or you can call us directly at 504-689-3599. Thank you.
Excellent tour guides for both places. The plantation was beautiful and the swamp was fun. Dewey is the guide to hit up for the swamp!!
I give 5 stars for the swamp tour. Captain Dewey was wonderful. We would definitely do that again. The plantation was disappointing. We only seen three rooms and the curator did not say much about the history. The slave quarters were “recreated”. Disappointing. The ride home we didn’t get dropped off at our hotel (where we were picked up) , we were told to get out and walk two blocks.
