Experience the full magic of Louisiana's bayous on the closest swamp tour to downtown New Orleans. Journey down the bayou on a 90-minute Cajun adventure through the heart of Southern Louisiana on a relaxing and shaded pontoon boat ride in the protected Jean Lafitte National Park and Preserve. As you and your family glide along swamp waters, observe native plant and exotic life in a delicate yet powerful landscape that has both changed and defined Louisiana culture. View moss-covered cypress trees, evading yet beautiful water hyacinths, gators, egrets, and many more interesting creatures that call the swamp their home. Tour guides born and raised in the bayou will reveal the mysteries of the bayou as well as exclusive facts about its ecosystem. Join us and "laissez les bons temps rouler!"

What a great bayou experience! Captain Jason was great. He had lots of insight on the bayou and all of its inhabitants. We saw gators, an owl, turtles and lots of birds. I felt completely safe and would do this tour again.

It was an interesting tour but it kind of seemed like there were pet alligators in the swamp. Even so the tour guide did keep our interest.
