Itinerary

This tour combines a boat ride through the swamp with a tour of a remarkable plantation home. Pick-up service (at most New Orleans, Metairie and Kenner area hotels) begins at 10:30 am and 11:00 am. We normally return by 6:00 pm and 6:30 pm. Our first stop is the beautiful, privately-owned Manchac Swamp, frequented only by Cajun Pride boats, which means fewer distractions during your tour and an impressive number of alligators and other bayou wildlife. Our boats offer protection from the elements as well as high visibility for more photo opportunities and an unobstructed view of swamp flora and fauna. Once back on dry land we'll take you to the plantation of your choice: Laura Plantation or Oak Alley Plantation (please leave your preference in the comments section of the online booking system). Oak Alley Plantation is famous for its 28 evenly spaced live oak trees - believed to be at least 300 years old - comprising the alley leading up to the big house. Built in 1805, Laura Plantation offers insight into the lives of the Creole men, women, slaves and children that lived and worked at the farm, which has continued to produce sugar up to the present day.
