In short, this was definitely the best thing we did in New Orleans!
The Whitney plantation gave us a glimpse into the sad history of slavery in the US and allowed us to understand the suffering the African Americans have endured.
The kayak tour was an amazing experience, with a close up encounter with alligators, turtles, birds etc.
Our guide Josh was absolutely amazing with his knowledge and experience.
My wife and i highly recommend this to everyone visiting New Orleans!! You gotta get out of the CBD to have a genuine experience!!
