Oak alley is steeped in history! The grounds are absolutely beautiful and a must see. The only downside I would say is that you can’t take pictures inside the house

I loved this tour and our guide and its authenticity
A big thank you to our guide Chris who was very welcoming and gave us all his energy and enthusiasm during this excursion. He's passionate about his job and it feels good. He shared with the group a wealth of interesting information about Laura and Oak plantation. We visited the beautiful Laura Plantation with the guide Krystin on site who took over. The Laura plantation tour focuses on the family history and that of the slaves and their life on the plantation. This experience was very rewarding from start to finish. I highly recommend this provider.
