A propos de cette activités

Après une courte traversée du Mississippi en autocar, embarquez pour une fascinante croisière de 2 heures dans les marécages et bayous de la Nouvelle-Orléans. Regardez la beauté de la Louisiane du Sud défiler devant vous, tandis que vous traversez les bayous et les marécages dans un bateau spécialement conçu, adapté à tous les temps.
Votre guide vous fera découvrir les mystères de ce légendaire terrain de Louisiane pendant que vous observez les lieux de ponte de la faune indigène. Découvrez comment les fruits de mer des eaux généreuses offrent un large assortiment de délicieux plats locaux. Observez les lieux de ponte des alligators, aigrettes, ratons laveurs, ragondins, et de nombreuses espèces de serpents. Certains animaux sont plus nombreux pendant les mois les plus chauds de l'année.
Tout au long du trajet, apprenez tout sur la culture et l'ingéniosité cajun - découvrez comment les Cajuns ont transformé la soupe en gumbo, célèbre plat de Louisiane, et la planche à laver en instrument de musique ; et, bien entendu, les marécages en paradis naturel. Votre guide vous expliquera également comment ces marécages et bayous luxuriants et sauvages sont en train de disparaître lentement. Vous en apprendrez plus sur les efforts accomplis pour préserver et restaurer les zones humides en voie de disparition de la Louisiane pour que les générations futures puissent en profiter. Vous reviendrez des bayous en autocar jusqu'au quartier français de la Nouvelle-Orléans.

This was probably one of the best tours that I have ever been on. Our tour guide, Ansen, was so great. He knew so much about the bayou and Louisiana culture, you could tell how proud he was to be Cajun and have grown up on the bayou his whole life. He had the most utter respect for its wildlife and treated the alligators that we saw with such kindness and care. He was really animated and funny and all-around personable. One aspect of this tour that I thought was really great was that during the bus ride from the French Quarter to the bayou, the company has the bus driver play a CD for about 30 minutes that is narrated and gives historical background on Louisiana, so I felt like from the start of the trip to the end I was continuously learning and there was no wasted time. I HIGHLY recommend this company, it is well worth your time (and it definitely is true to the 3-4 hour time frame, I was happy that it didn't exceed the 4 hours so that my boyfriend and I could continue sightseeing in NOLA the rest of the day).

I booked this tour based on previous reviews and it did not disappoint. The tour guide provided basic as well as the kind of information that only someone who lives in the area or who did his research to e knowledgeable. The boat was spacious with adequate seating. The tour was just long enough to be enjoyable.

Swamp tour was good even though we only saw only one alligator. There was no boat ride from New Orleans. They said they didn't do this and took us by bus.

I questioned my wife about this tour when she booked it because we were traveling with our 9 and 16 year old grandsons. From start to finish it was excellent. The swamp tour was one of the best tours we ever been on.

My husband and I enjoyed tooling along in the bayous, spotting alligators and watching them jump for marshmallows (though we thought marshmallows might not be the best diet for their ongoing health). The boat was not crowded, which was pleasant. The tour guide was knowledgeable and personable, and had a baby alligator with him that was a rescue, which was interesting. At the beginning of the ride when many boats were taking off at once, we had trouble hearing our tour guide.

The bus ride out to the swamp was about 30 minutes and was comfortable. We waited 15 minutes on a dock before they let us board the boat. I'm very happy we did this tour vs the very loud air boats. This was a nice peaceful boat ride which gave you time to really sit back, enjoy the local radio music, tour narration, and enjoy the sites. We saw lots of alligators which was enjoyable as they swam right up to the boat. They had a baby alligator for everyone to hold on the boat if you wanted. Our tour guide wasn't very personable, but did a good job explaining the area and history. I wish this tour left at a different time then the air boats on the same dock because it was pretty annoying when they whizzed by with their large waves and spray. Overall it was an enjoyable morning.

Everything was great! The only thing that seemed a bit weird was that they feed marshmallows to the alligators !?

Great format, terrific coach driver and a Bayou guide Anson who was fun, informative, but safety conscious too. Just long enough to experience the flavor of the region and share the fun.
