Visite de la double plantation : Oak Alley et Laura

Aperçu

The picturesque beauty and architecture of the Louisiana plantations are a “must” for any visitor to New Orleans. Many of these breathtaking homes are within an hour’s drive from the city. Your tour will begin with a comfortable ride out of New Orleans where your guide will share with you the origin of the Louisiana plantations, along with the effect they had on the city of New Orleans, and its residents. Along with discovering beautiful buildings, luscious gardens and historic artifacts, these homes also represent some of the darker chapters of Louisiana history. Many of the plantations will provide a focus on the lives of the slaves that brought these homes to life, and share some of the realities of the rural south during this time in our nation’s history. Upon arrival, each plantation home has its own guide to bring you through the main house, and share its specific story. Following your home tour, we will escort you around the grounds and answer any questions that may arise.

À quoi s'attendre

Oak Alley Plantation

"The Grand Dame of River Road". Perhaps the most photographed plantation in Louisiana, this home was built in 1839 and was originally named Bon Séjour (pleasant sojourn). Because of the quarter-mile avenue of 28 giant, live oaks leading up to the house, steamboat passengers dubbed it “Oak Alley.”

Laura: Louisiana's Creole Heritage Site

Laura: A Creole Plantation offers a 70-minute tour that is based on 5,000 pages of documents from the French National Archives related to the free and enslaved families who lived here. Guides will share the compelling, real-life accounts of 7 generations of Laura Plantation’s Creole inhabitants. With 11 structures listed on the National Register, Laura Plantation offers guests the chance to explore its newly restored Manor House, the formal and kitchen gardens, Banana-Land grove, and its authentic Creole cottages and slave cabins. Laura Plantation is best known for the West-African stories the home’s former slaves related to folklorist Alcée Fortier. Recorded at the slave cabins here in the 1870s, they were later popularized in English and became the “Tales of Br’er Rabbit.”

Plantation d'Oak Alley

"La Grande Dame de River Road". Peut-être la plantation la plus photographiée de Louisiane, cette maison a été construite en 1839 et s'appelait à l'origine Bon Séjour (séjour agréable). En raison de l'avenue d'un quart de mile de 28 chênes géants menant à la maison, les passagers du bateau à vapeur l'ont surnommée "Oak Alley".

Laura : site du patrimoine créole de la Louisiane

Laura : Une plantation créole propose une visite de 70 minutes basée sur 5 000 pages de documents des Archives nationales françaises liés aux familles libres et esclaves qui vivaient ici. Les guides partageront les récits convaincants et réels de 7 générations d'habitants créoles de Laura Plantation. Avec 11 structures inscrites au registre national, Laura Plantation offre à ses clients la possibilité d'explorer son manoir récemment restauré, les jardins formels et potagers, le bosquet de bananes et ses authentiques cottages créoles et cabanes d'esclaves. Laura Plantation est surtout connue pour les histoires ouest-africaines des anciens esclaves de la maison liées au folkloriste Alcée Fortier. Enregistrés dans les cabanes d'esclaves ici dans les années 1870, ils ont ensuite été popularisés en anglais et sont devenus les "Tales of Br'er Rabbit".

We started with a full day tour of the Oak Alley and Laura Plantations. We did stop at other plantations along with way to take pictures and to hear the stories. Mr. Borden is so knowledgeable about the histories and the current status. Amazing narrator. The next day he took me on a half-day tour of New Orleans. I particularly liked the cemeteries and their histories. The houses and their histories were also wonderful. Mr. Borden operates a fantastic service-oriented business. The attention to details (he had umbrellas and ponchos, plus water, etc.) was amazing. The vehicle was immaculate and very comfortable. I enjoyed every minute of his lectures/stories and general conversation. We started with a full day tour of the Oak Alley and Laura Plantations.

Benjamin did an excellent job. We were picked up promptly at the scheduled time in front of our hotel. Ben’s knowledge of the history of the area was extremely insightful and the one hour drive to the plantations literally flew by as he told us various stories of the history of the area. The plantation tours were very informative and interesting. I would highly recommend Benjamin and his company if you plan to do any tours in the New Orleans area.
