One of the smallest boat tours in the area, guests feel personally engaged even on a full boat. This is more than a fun tour for all ages, it is a one-of-a-kind experience. Guests get a once in a lifetime glimpse of life on these bayous that only the locals know. Taken through several waterways, guests learn about everything they see, the ecosystem, local culture, local wildlife (especially alligators), and could encounter recreational or commercial fishermen in action. The only Parish 100% affected by Hurricane Katrina, guests will see and learn details of the flood, and the wall built after Hurricane Katrina to separate and protect our community from the Mississippi River Gulf Outlet, the cause of our area flooding. A stop at our camp on the bayou (which can only be accessed by water) serves as a restroom stop. Adult guests have the option to arrive prior to their experience or stay afterwards, to step inside the bayou bar on site to possibly meet and talk to the locals.

    Enjoy two - two and a half hours of our diverse, fun and educational tour. The scenery throughout this tour is nothing like most have ever seen. A lifetime resident, Captain George will talk about personal experiences and knowledge related to much of what you see. He is a commercial blue crab fisherman and stops at one of his crab traps and describes the process. You'll see the "Great Wall of Louisiana," a flood wall constructed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers after Hurricane Katrina. Midway through the tour, you'll stop at our camp on the bayou for a peek inside of bayou living, and a restroom stop. You are sure to see various wildlife, although nothing is guaranteed, as this nature and not a controlled environment.

I am so happy we chose this bayou Tour. We got there early and sat at the bar. Everyone was so friendly. Sam made sure everything went smoothly. I forget the bartenders name but she had us laughing. The tour itself was beautiful. Captain George gave us information about everything we saw and was just so welcoming. I highly recommend coming here early for food and drinks then heading to the tour for an unforgettable experience.

This was the absolute highlight of our visit to New Orleans! Captain George is the real deal! This guy knows everything there is to know about the bayou. He has so much life experience from living in this area and his stories are so personal and amazing. I asked so many questions and he happily answered every single one. My friends and I know we booked the right tour. He brought us right next to the alligators and even picked one up. We even got to meet his alligator snapping turtle. And his wife Sam is the most amazing woman as well! She was so sweet and welcoming to us. If we ever go back I will do this tour again and again. It was such an amazing few hours. Captain George made the time fly by. Best tour guide I've ever had anywhere! Thank you again!
