Heldagstur med plantage och träsk i New Orleans

Resplan
Whitney berättar historien om de förslavade människorna som bodde och arbetade där. Den inkluderar också historien om de tidiga ägarna, familjen Haydel.
Laura är en fransk kreolsk plantage som drevs av fyra generationer franska kreolskvinnor.
St. Joseph Plantation var en bröllopsgåva från hennes far Valcour, som var en av sin tids rikaste män.
Här kommer du att tillbringa cirka 3 timmar på plantageområdet för att utforska ett nationellt historiskt landmärke. Denna historiska plats är tillägnad att bevara och tolka historien som dess invånare lämnat efter sig. Med tonvikt på sin tid som en fungerande sockerrörsplantage, är besökare inbjudna att uppleva utställningarna, gå under den ikoniska Allee of Oak Trees och besöka det stora huset. Du kommer att ha möjlighet att äta lunch på restaurangen eller deli. Du kan tillbringa en stund i presentbutiken, i baren eller bara sitta under de många ekarna på plantagen. Sedan går du ombord på bussen och tar en 35-minuters resa uppför motorvägen för en sumptur.
När vi anländer till Cajun Pride Swamp Tours går du ombord på en pontonbåt för att ta en 90-minuters tur genom träsket där du kommer att lära dig om de många arterna av vilda djur som bor där. Du kommer att ha möjlighet att ta massor av bilder på de mossdraperade cypresserna i sin majestätiska skönhet.
För att avsluta dagen tar du en 45-minuters resa tillbaka till staden på Bonnet Carre Spillway Bridge med utsikt över sjön Pontchartrain innan du går tillbaka till ditt hotell.

Perfect organization, punctual driver, friendly, attentive, and informative. The Oak plantation is not that interesting; I might have chosen another one, but it was still pleasant. The Swamp tour was fantastic.
Thank you so much for the wonderful review!
First…Kin, our experience’s organizer, driver and guide was engaging and enthusiastic, while also being generous and thoughtful with his knowledge. Kin Faulk and “K’s”are extraordinary!!! The plantation exhibits and tour were very interesting. This ongoing chapter of American darkness needs to continuously be re-examined until this sin shapes the mind of this country to truly repent. Finally, the swamp tour was probably the best one my partner and I have been a part of. It was a nice light counterpoint to the plantation. A great guide made this so as he provided much fun and insight. Also, we saw wildlife we hadn’t seen before on a swamp tour. All in all this was a truly great day. And that was due to Kin and “K’s”. Yay.
Thank you so much for the wonderful review!
K’s Luxury Transportation & Tours provided an outstanding experience. Our driver, Kindrell, was exceptional—knowledgeable, engaging, and genuinely enthusiastic as he shared information about New Orleans. He also ensured our comfort by providing water during the drive. Overall, it was a highly enjoyable and memorable experience!
Thank you so much for the wonderful review!
This was a full day tour visiting the Oak House Plantation and swamp tour. Both places were amazing to visit and Kin was a brilliant. Picked us up on time and would definitely recommend this tour.
Thank you so much for the wonderful review!
Wow. It’s all I can say about Kindrell! Ok, perhaps also amazing. ☺️ Our family’s first trip to New Orleans and we wanted to take some fun tours to learn more about the area & history, and Kindrell was an incredible wealth of knowledge! He spoke to everything New Orleans, gave fantastic recommendations, was witty & fun to be with, and an excellent host. Kindrell was so well organized and polite! He called and texted when he was on the way to pick us up in front of our hotel. He provided us icy cold waters and made sure we drank them & spoke about the risks of the heat in Louisiana. His van was beyond clean and comfortable - so much so I’m embarrassed to say that I accidentally fell asleep on the way back to the hotel! I’m sad because my husband said I missed some great content. 😢. However, that’s how comfortable I was with Kindrell - a Mother with her family, fell asleep in a tour guide’s van, her first day in a brand new place… If you know how meaningful and special that is, you know. 💯 What really struck me was Kindrell’s care for a couple of older passengers - he GENUINELY cared for them. Helped them in & out, spoke to their tour guide to make sure they were taken care of, and went the extra mile. This is just what I saw sitting in the back row with my family. The Oak Alley Plantation Tour would have been much better had Kindrell given it himself and I felt like the Slave piece of the history is very white washed. Personal opinion; I want to return to do the Whitney Plantation tour next time completely from the slaves perspective - not the slave owners with the big, pretty houses. The Cajun Pride Alligator Tour was awesome!!! Oh my gosh, my family had a blast. We saw many alligators, got up close to a few when the captain fed them, saw raccoons, birds, and even a razorback hog! Everyone got to hold the smallest, softest, baby gator too. 🥰 I can’t wait to return to NOLA and I hope to use Kindrell’s services again and would recommend him to anyone and everyone!
Thank you so much for the wonderful review! Im glad you was comfortable enough to trust me with your family. Just like our slogan.. Treati You Like Royalty, Love You Like Family.
Great Tour & Guide with clear communication around times, pick ups
Thank you for the review. I’m glad you was able to enjoy yourself.
We did a combination tour of Oak Alley Plantation and a swamp tour. Both tours were very interesting. Got to see lots of wildlife on the swamp tour. What made the day even better was our driver, Kin. He picks you up from your hotel, takes you to the scheduled tours, and takes care of checking you in. Then comes back to pick you up. Communication was great. He even called to tell us he might not make it back in time to get us from our swamp tour because he got stuck by a parade in the French Quarter. He arranged for us to go back with a tour bus if he couldn’t get there in time. He shares a lot of history on the drive back and forth. Highly recommend!
Kin, the initial tour guide & driver was fantastic and knowledgeable. We went to Oak Alley plantation as well as Cajun Swamp tour. Both tours were fun and a great learning experience about Creole & Cajun culture.
10/10 tour shout out to our tour guide Kin he was the best!
All very well organized, the guide great and always willing. Also doing the 2 excursions the same day was a success! To repeat!
