We picked the Oak Alley Plantation because they have a live tour in the big house, and because of the beautiful oak trees lining the front walk are just stunning.
Also, we thought about taking Uber out here from New Orleans but this tour was actually more cost effective, and there aren’t really Uber drivers out here to take you back. If you don’t have a vehicle this is the best option for travel and tour all together for cost.
It was a lovely tour, and it wasn’t too busy this day. There was a school group there as well but they were very well behaved and it was a great experience for all.
Love to see and hear the stories and information that isn’t always told in such detail in our history classes and books. This is a very important part of the complexities of American history and needs to be talked about and discussed.
So grateful for this experience.
There is a restaurant and bookshop as well as a bar that are a nice respite after walking around. Perfect way to end the visit. Would definitely recommend to anyone debating going!
