What To Expect

Mississippi River

Travel along the river to reac yur destination in the swamps.

Barataria Preserve

Board the 6-passenger airboat where your licensed USCG captain is awaiting your arrival. Each captain is a native of the area and will entertain you on this 1 hour 40 minute airboat adventure. The trip is part ride and part tour, where your captain stops to talk about the wildlife and flora of the swamps. You will get close to gators during the warmer days of the year. Yes, gators do hibernate, but in warmer days of the winter they will often be caught sunning themselves on the bank. Each trip is different and unique; you never know what you will view along the way. During the trip, the captain will supply the group with Champagne and flutes for the group to celebrate their experience. As the captain returns to the swamp tour dock, you will get 15 minutes to stretch your legs, use the restroom and visit the gift shop. Your driver will be at the dock awaiting your return back to your original pickup location.

Chaz was our tour guide for our group of 9 and let me just say, we ALL had a great time! Knowledgeable with some good laughs, we couldn't stop talking about this afterwards. We all agreed, this was the most fun and that we'd all love to come back and do it again. Thank you Louisiana Swamp Tours for a great time with my family. We had an amazing time.

Our guide, Dewie was absolutely excellent and really fun. We got to see about 6 alligators despite the cold weather. Dewie was informative and able to show us so many different areas of the swamps. We would recommend that everyone does this on their trip to New Orleans as it’s totally different but really good.

We had an amazing experience on our fan-boat tour of the swamps. I had no idea how beautiful the estuaries were until we were cruising along the water. If you have a choice, Captain Ernie is phenomenal. If you want to learn a thing or two about 'gaters, swamp lands, local history, reptiles in general, and science. Despite it being early season, we saw lots of 'gaters, turtles, cranes, and other beautiful wildlife. It was simply amazing. The bus portion from NOLA out to the boats was perfect - fun knowledgeable driver and a comfortable ride. Thanks guys!
