Great combo! Convenient tour!
Take the tour! So convenient- hotel pick up and driven to both locations, plantation and swamp tour. The muffuletta and mint julep at the plantation was great. The plantation tour and exhibits were educational. Captain Bobby, our swamp tour guide, was awesome! He pointed out the eagle’s nest, a yellow footed egret, and lured alligators with marshmallows. Got to hold a tiny baby alligator. Great experience!

Must do.
By far my favorite activity of the whole trip. Got out of the city and saw the other side of Louisiana. The swamp was beautiful. Our guide was awesome. We saw many sizes of the alligators. The boat ride was much smoother than I expected. Be prepared for weather. This is an outside activity.

Tour was cancelled but still giving 5 stars
Odd leaving a review because we got thunder/lightening stormed out and it was cancelled. I can not say enough about the communication and thought for our wellbeing that went into the decision to cancel. I highly respect the people running this tour. Our money was returned within an hour. We will try again next time in NOLA.

Oak Alley Plantation is...
Oak Alley Plantation is beautiful. The grounds are lovely. It seems funny to mention this but the public restrooms are the cleanest I've been in. The Best part of the tour was the Airboat ride. Rocky, our guide, was amazing. He got us up close to gators and let us touch a baby one. It was awesome. I would definitely recommend.

Don't ride the big lizards.
Had a great time!
Driver called us at our pickup as he pulled up, made it very easy, and we didn't have to worry whether we had the right bus.
Drive was comfortable and cool.
Pontoon boat was in good shape. The captain was knowledgeable, funny, and knew what he was doing. We saw gators, birds, and turtles, would've liked to see more, but that's how it goes.
It was a bigger operation than I expected with so few reviews on Viator. They had a gift shop, but shaded waiting deck, a bar with canned beer, mix drinks (canned) , and slushies, clean bathrooms, and an albino alligator.
Would definitely recommend.

Fantastic Day out!!
We really enjoyed this tour. Giselle was our tour guide and was fantastic. She was very informative all through the tour even we while we were travelling between locations she continued to tell us about the history of New Orleans. We started the day with an airboat ride where we met many of the alligators inhabiting the swamp and our operator was very entertaining and informative. We learnt a lot about the swamp and experienced a fun ride as well. We then headed to Laura plantation where we had a lovely guide who was extremely knowledgeable, and we learnt a lot about Lauras family history and their life on the plantation as well as some of the known history of the slaves who lived there. Houmas house was our next destination where we had a lovely buffet lunch where I (who is usually a bit fussy) was pleasantly surprised with how nice it was. The tour of the house was great which is full of antiques and interesting pieces from a bygone era. The tour guide took us through the home explaining life in this house and we then explored the beautiful gardens complete with beautiful old Oak Trees hundreds of years old and fantastic sculptures throughout to be discovered as you walk through. We even encountered peacocks, swans and turkeys along the way. The van was comfortable and the small group who were lovely was a great way to do this type of tour. We would highly recommend this tour.

Fun boat
I had a really awsome time. Our captain made my experience very fun and enjoyable. We saw some alligators, and we fed them marshmallows. The music was very good. Everyone was dancing and drinking and we had alot of fun. If u want to have fun or celebrate your birthday this is the boat for you
