Captain Brent was a fabulous host throughout the tour!  He answered all of my questions and was vigilant in looking for critters for us (gators, nutria, herons, and turtles).  The scenery was beautiful and there was lots to learn and see, even some cabins that were used as movie sets!

I’ve been on many gator cruises, this is by far the coolest one! It was a cruise that started at sunset, it was beautiful. Captain Mike was super informative and took us a little off the beaten path. Seeing gators at night with the flashlights was so cool! Just don’t forget long sleeves or pants due to the bugs. But there was even bug spray on board for us. Overall, we had an amazing time and loved Captain Mike! Would absolutely recommend.

Tour was well coordinated plenty of time at oak alley didn’t feel rushed could enjoy the property before heading to the swamp. Swamp tour was a fun afternoon with Reggie as our captain.

Oak Alley/swamp tour

We were a group of 8, and we all give this tour 5 stars.  We were glad that we were on the slow boat in the swamp, because the airboat scares the alligators and birds away.

Oak Alley Plantation is beautiful, especially the grounds and gorgeous trees!

Fun Day

Both locations provided a lot of historical information. The time alotted at both was more than enough to take in the sights and surroundings.
