The Laura plantation part with Logan was top quality. He is a confident and engaging speaker full of interesting info. Excellent morning.
Didn’t rate the swamp tour as highly. Spent a lot of time just sitting, waiting for previous boat to move on. Saw more alligators back at the base than we did on the tour.
The tour bus driver was also engaging, helpful and informative.
