All Louisiana Tours & Excursions in 2026 - page 28

Our tour was amazing! Our tour guide was Dewy and he was phenomenal! He was very entertaining and had knowledge about the wildlife at specific locations in the swamp which allowed him to personally interact with the gators and raccoons and allow us plenty of photo opportunities. I would highly recommend this tour and Dewy!!

Best Tour I’ve had in a long Time, everyone there was extremely welcoming, informative, and super knowledgeable, from our Shuttle driver, to the cashier and especially our Tour Boat Driver! My wife and I learned more about The Louisiana Bayou, & Echo-system on that tour in two hours, than our our entire lives learning and following National Geographic. Honestly! Superb!

Great Tour with professional pickup right at my hotel front and drop off. Lorraine was a very enthusiastic driver to the bayou and she gave us local insights along the way. She really seems to care about her job and the people she meets. This company has the option for small airboat tours of only 9 people on a boat and I highly recommend using the small boat option. It may be slightly more expensive, but it’s more intimate and tailored to the group you’re with plus you get to maneuver into smaller areas versus the larger boats in overall it’s just more bespoke can’t say enough about Captain Ernie not only was he very knowledgeable about the Bayou. He gave us local insights that only somebody with 10 generations on the swamp could give you in some real world facts about what’s happening to the destruction of the wetland that really make you think over the hour and a half. I was on the swamp. I saw at least two dozen gators on top of local birds and all sorts of other wildlife. The best part of the whole trip was going to the original Cypress Bayou, and seeing the stark difference between what it was and what it has become overall I felt like this was a worthwhile morning for my trip to New Orleans with equal parts, excitement learnings, and overall local flare. I would recommend this to anybody, especially a solar traveler like myself who wants to attack on something interesting to a work trip.

Ian, our airboat guide, made the trip both memorable and informative. He made several stops along the way to share interesting facts about the swamp and its ecosystem. The most exciting part of the tour was watching him interact with the alligators. He was able to get remarkably close to them, even touching some of them, and demonstrated how they are fed marshmallows. It was a unique experience that made the tour both entertaining and educational.

It's quiet a bit of walking but it is completely worth it. Public paid parking only. I had a really good time at both the aquarium and insectarium. The butterfly room was definition a unique experience. During my visit I was also able to both pet a ray and watch the penguins get fed.

We enjoyed our visit .Every detail for each exhibit was throughly thought out with care. The attention to each piece of information was very important to preserve. The experience was well documented. The history of all of these events are very important to remember. These lives of all individuals that were lost should be remembered and never forgotten. Thank you and God bless

Edward was courteous and provided lots of interesting tidbits about New Orleans/Louisiana during the drive with opportunities for photos. Whitney Plantation was one of the most memorable parts of our trip, presenting the perspective of a person who is enslaved. Would definitely recommend!

We really enjoyed this class. This is a full hands on class where you cook all the food, although it is pre-portioned and organised for you. This contrasts with the demonstration class which I have done before, where you watch the chef cook. We had Chef Lynne as our instructor who was wonderful. She explained everything clearly and constantly helped all the class members. Our menu was chicken & sausage gumbo, shrimp & grits, and bananas foster crepes. This included making a roux for the gumbo and flambé for the banana foster which was fun! I recommend this class and would do it again (worth a different menu) the next time I’m in NOLA.
