The Airboat ride into the swamp was awesome! Our Captain, Duey, was knowledgeable and entertaining!! He was great! We saw alligators and water fowl. I loved that! The plantation tour was nice but was too short at the late afternoon tour. We had only 40 minutes to tour the house and grounds.

Ride over - great! Plantation tour - great! Airboat swamp tour - more than great! Ride back - not great. Driver asked US how to get back to our hotel. I’m like bro, we’re tourists, we don’t know where the heck where going. So he literally just told us to get off the bus about 9 blocks away and pointed up the street and said I think you’re up that way and drove off. Perfect day right up to the last minute. That was not cool.

Ok, this was the Highlight for me in NOLA and i really recommend the Airboat Tour to everyone visiting! I specifically did the later tour with a small airboat (10.45) because I wanted to get the full experience on the airboat and the plantation was just a plus for me. The Airboat trip was awesome, we learned alot about the swamp and marshlands, the animals there and the economy. We discovered a huge Alligator quite quickly and had some close encounters with smallers. The guide made sure we all got our share of gator experience as well as nature and wreckless airboating, also the guide made sure we had a great distribution of people on the boat, as some people really were obnoxious. Very cool dudes. We then went to the plantation which was a bit chaotic The driver gave some instructions no one could hear, as he had no mic. Then he let us wait in front of the plantation wondering what' up. We had not enough time at the plantation considering we wanted to get snacks, souvenirs ...
