Travel along the river to reach your destination in the swamps.
Barataria Preserve, Marrero, Louisiana, United States On this tour you will experience the best of both worlds: a swamp tour and an airboat ride. You will travel at high speeds in the airboat then slow down and stop for pictures. Along the way, you will get a personal tour by your local Captain. These airboats have stadium seating so the person in front of you does not obstruct your view. Every seat is great for viewing the wildlife. Yes, gators will get close - real close! Alligators do hibernate in the colder months, but the experienced captains know where to look for them. On average, during the winter, you have better than a 50/50 chance of seeing a gator. In the warmer months, you will always see a gator. You may also see bald eagles, pelicans, osprey, or owls. Airboats reach speeds of up to 35 miles an hour, and are propelled by a huge fan that will blow air from the back of the boat in excess of 200 miles an hour. These tours are truly a blast! They ride in inches of water and go places where traditional boats cannot go. 120 minutes

La connaissance du guide Jason, son sens de l’humour. Can’t say anymore but had the greatest guide. Fully recommend Jason!

The air boat small group tour was awesome. Very informative and got to see the different animals and alligators that live in the bayou. Our guide was great. Highly recommended.

This was a wonderful way to see the natural habitat surrounding New Orleans. From the friendly bus driver who picked us up at our hotel to our very knowledgeable tour guide we had an excellent experience. The swamp was beautiful and we got to see several alligators. Ian was a great guide and told us all about the history of the area and the current environmental changes. I was really glad we had picked the small group tour for a more intimate experience. And having the tour company drive us to and from the city took away all the stress of getting there. Highly recommend.
