ニューオーリンズ発オーク アレイ プランテーションとスワンプ ボート ツアー

Amazing, great tour guide in an outstanding setting and very informative. Facilities excellent. History realistically and respectfully explained. The swamp tour was unbelievable. Tour guide was incredibly helpful informative and delivered the tour with ease. His enthusiasm was fabulous. We saw the swamp inhabitants in their natural environment. Truly worth every single penny. Exceptional value for money. Thank you for making our trip so enjoyable.

Plantation tour was OK. The swamp tour was amazing. Captain Ernie was so educational and really funny. We saw lots of alligators, which was so fun.

If you want to visit a historical mansion then this is the best tour to book. The tour guide was so good in history telling too. Nice ambience and peaceful surroundings.

Our drivers Barbara & Keith were fantastic & great drivers. The plantation tour was very interesting & informative. The bayou cruise with captain Bobby was great & a highlight. Only one thing from the whole day I’d like to see change -I found it disturbing the feeding of marshmallows to the wildlife to encourage interaction. Personally I’d prefer less interaction to protect their health, wellbeing & environment. That aside the tour was a great day out & will recommend.

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.
