I'd love to share the name of the driver of our bus, but she never shared it. She also didn't share where we were going (plantation or swamp first) or how long it would take to get there. The only time she actually spoke was when we got to the plantation to tell us we had less than 90 minutes before getting back to the bus. This was very odd, and somewhat unsettling, as we spent hours of the day driving.
The plantation is beautiful and the tour is very informative. The gift shop has really interesting and unique things, and was a lot of fun to go through. I'd love to speak to the food but there was simply no time to try it.
The swamp tour was really fun, with a great guide and many alligator sightings. Great information about the area, the breeding cycle of the alligator, and how much the swamp was affected by Hurricane Ida and the unseasonal weather.
In the future I would do these as two separate tours so hours are not spent in a silent bus listening to the radio. Also, spending more time at the plantation would have been very much preferred.

Thank you for the feedback. It is indeed a long day when you opt for the combo tour, due the distance between each location. If it's too long of a day for you, we do recommend that you take the tours separately, as that is an option as well.
As far as the driver, their job is just to safely transport guests to and from their location. Although some will provide a little entertainment at their own will, they are not required to entertain as they are driving, but we do agree that there could be more communication between her and the guests as to where you all are headed. We will further address the issue. We appreciate the feedback.
