This is about the tour part not the plantation itself. We were picked up by a different company than we booked with, assume they didn't have enough people for the day and gave our booking to another company. The driver/guide was knowledgeable and I thought he was great telling us a wide range of things. However it was at times hard to hear him through the speaker system. My mum who wears hearing aids really struggled. One of the seats was really uncomfortable, something was definitely wrong with it and I was really stiff and sore after long drive. It also didn't have a seat belt. There was a point I didn't think our van was going to get up the hill it was making such a racket. The whole trip door to door was 4.5 hours. We had exactly 2 hours at the plantation.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. But I am almost reluctant to respond because this does not sound like our company. All of our vehicles are equipped with seatbelts. Also, the entire city of New Orleans is totally flat. I can only think of one incline is on the bridge and usually when the driver is going over that bridge which has a steep climb he’s usually going slow on purpose to point out where the German coast slavery revolt took place. But please understand I’m a little confused with the review.

The tour company and Brian our driver were great. The tour inside the plantation was lack luster and. Rather boring. The plantation is beautiful. I wish I would have picked another plantation to visit. Loved crescent city tours. The swamp Boat tour is a must! Don’t skip it! The extra money is worth it

The grounds are beautiful and the nearly 200 year old oak trees magnificent. Songbirds are perched in some of the trees and it seems idyllic. Yet, the slaves quarters are a stark contrast. When you see how slaves were forced to live compared to life for their masters in their splendid mansion, it might leave you with a loss for words. We can't erase history and can only endeavor to learn from it. It was a very worthwhile experience. Bryan was our bus driver and he was fun and informative. I highly recommend this tour.
