New Orleans Swamp Tour Boat Adventure With Pickup

Overview

See the Cajuns of the Bayou living and surviving in harmony with the swamps. Here, the waterways are their highways. From the relaxed comfort of our covered New Orleans Swamp Tour Boats, you will drift slowly past a 2000 year old Indian Burial Mound, a Cajun cemetery and a fishing village! You'll admire the wildlife that made the Barataria Swamps the Crown Jewel of the Louisiana Purchase. Here, birds, snakes, turtles, fur animals, and gators - the king of the swamp - are easily spotted in Spring, Summer, and Fall.

Super fun experience on the swamp! Both the bus driver and captain of the boat were friendly and informative. We got to see plenty of alligators and up close. Highly recommend!

Absolutely amazing experience with prompt and convenient pickup from our hotel. We saw lots of gators and got to pet a tiny gator on the boat. The bus driver and boat tour guide were fun, kind, and delivered informative content. We had lots of laughs and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Top marks!
