À quoi s'attendre

Mississippi River
Drive-out along the Mississippi River approximately 30 miles (48 km) to the embarkation point of your airboat from your New Orleans hotel. Depending on the option you selected, board a large airboat holding 15 to 25 passengers or a small airboat limited to six to eight passengers for a more intimate, personalized experience.

Jean Lafitte National Historical Park and Preserve
Set out on a 1 hour and 45 minute tour on a 20,000-acre (8,095-hectare) tract of tidewater cypress swamp close to the Jean Lafitte National Historical Park and Preserve. Your airboat is powered by an aircraft propeller to allow a fast, fluid trip through the shallow marshes. Feel the wind on your face as you zip into bayous lined with mossy cypress and tupelo-gum trees. Prepare to see plenty of alligators in the warmer months (and warmer days in winter), some of which may be out sunning themselves on rocks! Your guide may even feed the gators, affording amazing photo opportunities. Keep your eyes open for turtles, snakes, egrets, herons and ibis. You may even catch sight of a hawk, owl or bald eagle. In the cooler months, look for white-tailed deer, raccoons and the large rodents known as nutria. Be sure to check out the indoor exhibits of alligators, including an albino alligator. Note: This tour does not include hotel pick-up or drop-off unless option selected at checkout.

Parc historique national et réserve Jean Lafitte
Partez pour une visite d'une heure et 45 minutes sur une étendue de 20 000 acres (8 095 hectares) de marécages de cyprès à proximité du parc historique national et de la réserve Jean Lafitte. Votre hydroglisseur est propulsé par une hélice d'avion pour permettre un voyage rapide et fluide à travers les marais peu profonds. Sentez le vent sur votre visage lorsque vous filez dans les bayous bordés de cyprès moussus et de tupelo-gommiers. Préparez-vous à voir de nombreux alligators pendant les mois les plus chauds (et les jours plus chauds en hiver), dont certains peuvent être en train de prendre le soleil sur des rochers ! Votre guide peut même nourrir les alligators, offrant des opportunités de photos incroyables. Gardez les yeux ouverts pour les tortues, les serpents, les aigrettes, les hérons et les ibis. Vous pourrez même apercevoir un faucon, un hibou ou un pygargue à tête blanche. Pendant les mois les plus froids, recherchez les cerfs de Virginie, les ratons laveurs et les gros rongeurs appelés ragondins. Assurez-vous de visiter les expositions intérieures d'alligators, y compris un alligator albinos.

Having never seen a gator up close, I figured this was the best way to see them in the wild. Our guide did not disappoint. Lost count of alligators saw a few turtles and various birds. Gators from wee ones to 13' long. And they definitely came close enough. Suggest the smaller boat if your group will fit.

This was one of the highlights of our New Orleans trip! I was worried since we did the large airboat tour that we wouldn’t be able to see as much on the small boat but our guide made sure everyone got a chance to see all the wildlife! We saw a baby gator and one of the largest skaters in the area at 13 feet!! Our tour guide kissed the gator on the mouth! We were able to see a bald eagle flying above us as they have five nests in the area this year. It was overall unbelievable and I highly recommend. There is a place to purchase beer/cocktails before your tour as well which was a nice surprise!
