ホイットニー・プランテーション＆ミュージアムツアー｜ニューオーリンズからのピックアップ

Was very educational but appreciated the go-at-your own pace. Lots of information but interesting though. Had a good driver that provided insightful tidbits on the drive there when appropriate, but not the whole way there. Also loved the fact that she was helpful in showing a sight I was looking to see en route.

VERY good AND BAD they left us stranded. they did not pick us up we waited until 9:17 AM. We could not communicate with anyone.

EXCELLENT experience learned a lot

The history and experiences on this tour were truly phenomenal. Being present with ancestral stories and learning felt deeply meaningful — the kind of immersive connection that stays with you long after the trip ends. The content itself was rich, educational, and beautifully curated. However, the logistics left a lot to be desired and significantly impacted our experience. Due to low booking numbers on our specific tour, our group was merged with multiple other tour lines without adequate notice. This caused unexpected delays as we were held to wait through tours we had not planned for — tours that were not part of our original itinerary. The timing consequences were serious. One member of our group nearly missed a flight. Only a providential delay saved what could have been a costly and stressful situation. This was not a minor inconvenience — it was a disruption that affected real travel plans. What made it worse was the lack of communication. Information was shared piecemeal and only through my friend's tour provider rather than directly with all travelers. We deserved timely, clear, and direct communication about any changes to the tour structure. The experiences themselves are absolutely worth having. We would encourage anyone to explore this history. That said, moving forward, we will be booking directly with the sites and experiences we wish to visit to avoid this kind of logistical mismanagement.

Not a true depiction of what plantation life was like for the slaves. No creativity or thought was put into re enacting the evil that took place there. An empty and awful rendition of the times. It’s a slap in the face to black people and a lie to white people. The owner should be ashamed, it’s just a money making attraction. They had a nerve to re due a slave shack with new wood as if the slaves lived in new construction. The master’s house was empty and very little items were there to represent the times. Where’s the hanging and whipping tree! Where’s the picking fields? Where’s master’s ugly face in a photo. Where’s the master’s house furniture? Where’s the whip and other hardware use to kill the bodies and spirits of the slaves. A truly horrible lack of any attempt towards the truths of this major time in history! The mosquitoes were out of control, someone should exterminate the grounds while they’re putting up their new pretty construction. Lies! Lies! Lies! Soooo disrespectful to portray a park like scene. It’s a money maker. The store was the best thing there but it was the worst thing there. This place should be free, especially to black people. Enough of blood and free labor has been paid. Shameful! I will tell everyone don’t waste your time or money! Sad injustice!

Basic but extremely informative. Timely. No bells and whistles so use a different tour if you want someone to explain it all. The plantation is very interesting. And has incredible sculptures and written explanations. The audio tour was excellent and our bus and guide, who was sweet, was timely.

The Whitney Plantation Museum Tour was an incredibly impactful experience that powerfully illuminates the deeply horrific history of enslavement, while centering Black African lives with dignity and respect. In many ways, it felt like a memorial—bringing to life a painful history that continues to shape American society. The self-guided tour was thoughtfully designed, educational, and easy to follow. I especially appreciated how the museum highlights stories of Black resistance, rebellion, and liberation—it was both grounding and empowering to witness. I would strongly encourage everyone to experience this tour.

Pick up and drop off clear and easy. The tour was amazing and informative. The whole experience is moving.

Great transportation to and from the site. The site/museum has done a wonderful job of telling the story of this place through those who were enslaved there - it was well worth the time to visit.

Should not be missed! 2nd Line Tours contacted the day of our tour and gave us an estimated time. They arrived promptly and we had commentary by our driver at times about our surroundings. The tour itself was self- guided with audio cassettes with 14 stops throughout the plantation. Gives life to the subject of slavery and life on a plantation..
