Oak Alley Plantation Tour from New Orleans

Overview

Oak Alley is one of the most magnificent plantation tours because of the 28, evenly spaced, huge Oak Trees that go from the river road to the Plantation House. Built in 1837 using Greek Revival architecture, and restored in 1925, this house could to be straight out of the movie “Gone with the Wind”. In addition to antique farm equipment, the twenty-five acre grounds also feature a restaurant, blacksmith shop and a souvenir shop, of which you'll enjoy some free time to peruse at your leisure. It is a comprehensive plantation experience.

What To Expect

Great River Road

You'll be driven to the Oak Alley Plantation House, located about an hour and a half outside the city of New Orleans.

Oak Alley Plantation

The tour of the Oak Alley house is conducted by guides in authentic plantation style apparel. Walking is required for this tour. The distance from the plantation house to the restaurant and souvenir shop is about 1 block. There are benches along the path, shaded by the Oaks. The guided house tour will be about 35 minutes in length. The remainder of your time will be spent self-exploring the grounds. If you use your time wisely, you can grab a sandwich at the gift shop for lunch and still have time to walk the grounds.

Transportation pick up was great. Pick up window is 30 minutes from the start time. The house was beautiful

Bus trip is shared with travelers continuing on for a swamp tour. That makes the return trip to New Orleans longer. Also, the bus ride was rough and noisy. Seemed like one or more wheels were seriously out of balance.

Thank you for your feedback. The shuttle bus does make a quick stop on the way back to the city, and it does take about 10 minutes at most to get everyone off for their combo tour before returning to the city. The roads are not in the best condition, so we can understand that it can be a rough ride at times, but that is out of our control.

Take time to allow the lessons to become part of the way you make your decisions. Many people need to learn to change their mindset about their history.
