Both guides were great. The swamp tour with Rocky was fun and exciting. We did get wet, FYI!!! Saw lots of gators and other wild life.

My granddaughter and I took this tour on April 13, 2025. Captain Ernie was our guide for the swamp tour in the afternoon. We had a blast and learned interesting things about the area and the alligators that live there. If you have the time to take the airboat, I highly recommend it. If you are lucky enough to get Captain Ernie as your guide, you will be very pleased with the experience.
We also went on the New Orleans City/Cemetery tour in the morning. The guide we had was David and he also was very knowledgeable regarding all the locations that we visited. I would recommend this tour as well.
