We had a terrific day of kayaking, eating and exploring on our full day tour. Sam, our guide was delightful. Personable, engaging and particularly knowledgeable about the history of the people and the place. The kayak portion lasted a couple of hours (about 3 miles). Lots of beautiful wildlife: herons, egrets, alligators, turtles. An important note: the tour did not go to the Whitney Plantation. Instead we toured Oak Alley. I’d suggest that if Whitney is the thing you want to see then consider an alternative tour. I found Oak Alley to be a pretty strong option.
