Swamp Tour

The Bus driver, Ms. Barbara, that picked us up for the tour was outstanding. Very polite and friendly. She kept us entertained during our ride to the boat and our ride back from the boat after the tour. She explained different areas in New Orleans and gave us some history on them. She also recommended some places to eat at during our stay. The captain on the boat tour was very informative. He also made sure we saw plenty of alligators. We were also able to hold a baby alligator. It was a nice tour, we enjoyed it. We took the first tour at 9:40am to avoid the heat. It was a good choice. I would definitely recommend taking this tour.
Awesome experience!

The two hour tour was the perfect amount of time and it was a great experience! Our captain was very knowledgeable about the swamp and the wildlife. PLUS he had a tiny baby gator and we all got to hold it and take a picture with it. Oh also he fed the gators marshmallows like they were just little treats being fed to doggies swimming around. So awesome!
No drop-off service

We booked swampy tour with transportation. But we leave the bus driver rejected my friends and I to get on the bus. She checked the list and told us we were in the next bus. Then she drove away, and ten minutes later I went to the service staff, who said there was no next bus, and the driver of the last bus have announced our name. But we've been sitting outside and waiting for the car and we didn't hear anyone call us by our name. Drivers and staff are speaking the opposite, and they refuse to provide us with service to send us back to the hotel. My friends and I are the only Asians on the whole journey, and I can hardly say that this is or is not actually racial discrimination, but this journey makes me uncomfortable.
Response from Host , Jun 2022
There was an apparent miscommunication. There were two buses out here at the swamp dock to bring guests back to their hotels and the one that you approached was the plantation bus. Therefore, that driver told you that you were on the next bus, which is accurate. Brinae, your driver, was walking around looking for you at the swamp. Our office staff even made an announcement that the buses were leaving for the city because you three were standing by the window for some time. Once they made the announcement and your group stayed back, we assumed that you drove yourself here. When you approached the ticket agent, the bus had already left, and the next bus wasn't going to arrive until 6pm. We did offer that to you, of course. I can assure you that it doesn't have anything to do with discrimination. We do not condone any kind of discrimination at our company. It was clearly a miscommunication. If you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me directly. -Jennifer Nguyen/PR Manager (504)689-3599

I went solo as the rest of my party returned home. I had a great time and Reggie was an excellent guide and very knowledgeable. We got to see a lot of alligators which was really cool and learn a lot of history about the swamp area. Definitely recommend 10/10!

Very educational and enjoyable the captain of the boat was hilarious and fun. Recommend this tour to anyone LET THE GOOD TIMES ROLL and it was a shock that when I visited the gift shop the lady behind the counter was from Marin County Calif. Where I'm from one city over from where I grew up she's from San Refeal and I'm from San Anselmo

What an awesome experience for me and my family! Captain Roger took us around the swamps and shared various stories and information regarding the alligators. We saw a lot of alligators during our trip and even had close encounters! We took a similar tour in Mount Dora, FL and it pales in comparison to this. Next time we will try their airboat tours.
Lots of alligators!

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable. We learned a lot about the swamp and alligators. They did pick us up very early. We were sitting around the boat dock for over 1 hour waiting for our 2 Pm departure. We were picked up at 10:30 which was way too early
Good tour. We saw...

Good tour. We saw alligators and the view was really nice.
They were throwing marshmallows for the alligators, not sure how good it is for them
Response from Host , Apr 2022
Thank you for the positive feedback! We understand your concern about the wildlife. We can assure you that the alligators are the top predators in the swamp and they don't have a problem with finding resources for themselves to survive. Plus, they have to eat a lot more than just marshmallows, so you can think of it as more of a light snack that lures them closer to the boat for a closer experience.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
