ニューオーリンズ発スワンプボート・ライド&ホイットニー・プランテーション・ツアー





説明
このツアーは、プライベートのマンチャック・スワンプとホイットニー・プランテーションを組み合わせたものです。 10年前の1752年頃、ホイットニー・プランテーションは、ルイジアナ州で唯一の奴隷制の歴史を完全に扱うプランテーション博物館として、その歴史で初めて一般公開された。 Whitneyでの体験は、自分のペースで進められるオーディオツアーです。 ホイットニーを訪れる人々は、博物館の展示物、修復された歴史的なアウトビルディング、何百もの一人称の物語を通して、ここで暮らし、働いていた奴隷の人たちについてユニークな視点を得ることができます。 その後、マンチャク・スワンプ内にある個人所有の野生動物の隠れ家まで少しのドライブです。地元出身のケイジャンの船長が、沼地探検の初期に戻る旅にご案内します。 屋根付きのポンツーンボートで神秘的なヒノキの沼地をガイドしながら、アメリカアリゲーターや豊富な野生動物を誇示してくれます。 フレニエの町の歴史やケイジャンの文化である漁業、狩猟、罠について学びます。 カメラ準備ゲイターを跳ね上げておやつを!

湖と呼ばれているが、実際にはここは淡水の川によって供給され、メキシコ湾と繋がっている大きなラグーンと汽水域の河口である。 広さは630平方マイル (1600 km2) あり、北アメリカでも最大級の湿地である。
ニューオーリンズの西のミシシッピ川下流の洪水調節操作である、放水路を眺めます。 この流出路は、開通するとミシシッピ川からの洪水がポンチャートレイン湖に流れ込み、そこからメキシコ湾に流れ込むようになっている。
この個人所有の野生動物保護区では、沼地への穏やかな旅の間、他のボートに出会うことはありません。 地元のケイジャンの船長が、彼ら自身の沼地探検の個人的な物語や、出会う植物や野生生物に関する魅力的な情報を伝えます。 苔に覆われたヒノキのトレスと豊富な野生生物の原始的な美しさは、いくつかの素晴らしい写真を保証します! オープンエアのパビリオンでドリンクと軽食をお楽しみください。

They fill the bus so if traveling with someone or a group get there early. The driver and guide were great. Captain Dustin was amazing for the boat ride
The plantation and swamp tours were great and we learned a lot, but I’m docking one star due to poor communication about lunch. We were only told upon reaching Whitney, when the guide casually asked if the group was okay skipping lunch. After 1–2 people said yes, it was assumed everyone agreed, with no real option or warning beforehand. We spent the full 9–5 day in sweltering heat with only chips and chocolate, which made the experience much harder than it should have been. Food is important on a full-day tour, and better arrangements or clearer communication should be in place.
Great day easy to find starting point Lovely tour guide and bus driver self guided tour at the plantation amazing funny boat guide on the swamp got to see gators being fed and to hold a baby gator amazing day
This tour is a great way to cover two must do experiences in one day. Kimberly was knowledgeable and engaging. She took great care of us. We learned a lot from her.
The guide is exclusively English-speaking. I am French and did not understand anything of the explanations that seemed very informative. Perhaps consider a day for a French-speaking guide. The time is too short to visit the Whitney plantation. The bayou tour is too short. We quickly turned back. The fact of feeding animals with sweets to attract them was quite shocking.
Both the swamp ride and the Whitney Plantation were really great experiences. Swamp ride was informative and the tour guide answered all questions and made sure we left informed. Whitney Plantation had me crying for all the slaves who suffered at the hands of plantation owners and the public in general. We chose Whitney for the education they provide regarding the experiences of slaves. This is a history we need to keep alive and more people need to learn! Only recommendation is that they just put a note to either bring food/snacks or be prepared to purchase at a secondary location.
Kimberly was a wealth of knowledge and paced our tour and commentary really well. She spoke on Nola history, culture, food, and drink, and she even gave out prizes and loaned power banks with various cord outlets. Definitely recommend!
a beautiful day trip! kimberly, our guide for the entire trip, was fun and engaging and shared a lot of interesting history on new orleans. the tour through the whitney plantation was very interesting and moving. a quick stop at the Oak Alley plantation (much larger than the whitney plantation) for a quick lunch and then we headed off to the swamp tour where we saw an incredible variety of animals: many aligators but also wild pigs, raccoons, turtles, birds. it was lovely. the boats have a roof too so you don't get wet even when it rains which it did occasionally on our tour.
Jane, Dominique and Thomas were all awesome! A great time was had by me , my wife, my two teenage children and my toddler.
My original booking was cancelled however I was advised in advance and was offered an alternative. We set off on time and Jane was an excellent host providing a very informative commentary on the way. As my original booking was cancelled we were actually added to another group heading to a different plantation. The coach took a short detour to drop 3 of us at the Whitney Plantation as per my original booking. I felt very looked after and fully informed of the arrangements. The Whitney Plantation was an amazing experience and worthy of being in anyone’s itinerary. It was a self guided tour and easy to follow. The only downside was a turn in the weather which meant I had to move through the areas a little quicker than I would have liked but overall a great experience. The coach came back to collect us at the agreed time and we were driven to meet the rest of the coach party at Oak Plantation where we had ample time to obtain refreshments. Onwards from there we headed for the swamp tour. Whilst the swamp vehicle wasn’t what I was expecting it was a great trip nonetheless and our boat operator was excellent . We did get to see the alligators and other swamp wildlife and a great time was had .
Nicola, we always appreciate that our guests recognize that they are special to us, and we will do all we can to enhance their tour experience. When there is an unexpected bump in the road, we try even harder. Thank you.
