Are you ready to experience one of the best excursions New Orleans has to offer? Adventures of Jean Lafitte offers personal Alligator Tours through Louisiana’s beautiful backcountry. Gather your whole crew and come experience the “road less traveled”!

You’ll be touring 20,000 acres of tidewater cypress swamp. During your 1 hour 30 minute tour you’ll have opportunities to see alligators, snakes, turtles, egrets, herons and ibis, and we sometimes see hawks, owls and bald eagles.

We are approximately 35-45 minutes from New Orleans. Both self-drive and hotel pickup options are available, and hotel pickups begin 75 minutes prior to tour time.Because we are located about 40 minutes outside of New Orleans, cab and uber services are not available.

This was absolutely the most boring tour ever. It's just a slow boat ride on a very crowded boat with music. I was expecting some narration, animals, etc. Not really any interaction with the only staff piloting the boat. We did stop and watch an alligator some other boat had fed. Altogether, it was just boring.

We had a great time. It was so much fun and so cool. Our guide was funny. It’s a beautiful location and we saw quite a few gators!

The communication was unclear, causing us to miss our first tour. When we called to re-schedule we were treated very rudely and hung up on. The tour was great, the customer service, not so much!
