What You Can Expect
Destrehan Plantation
First, you will ride out to the quaint and remote Cajun Village close to Paradis, LA for a thrilling high-speed ride onboard 7-passenger airboats, comfortably gliding over marshes, deep into secluded bayous for approximately 2 hours. You may even get to hold a baby alligator, feed giant catfish, or meet a nutria face to face.
Then, travel to the Destrehan Plantation for a guided tour. This historic plantation, on Louisiana's Old River Road, is a lavishly restored Greek Revival antebellum mansion. Here you will have free time to enjoy lush gardens and majestic live oaks.

We have gone on several of the swamp tours, at all different times of the year. May is a great time to go to New Orleans. It was just a little humid, no rain and the sites are always interesting-gators and all. We had a larger air boat, and it didn't go quiet as fast as we like, but the guide was great and we enjoyed the company.
