I went during Covid-19 in November 2021, and I tell you it was life changing. It depicted how it was inside the house and in the fields picking cotton and sugar cane. I cant remember our tour guide but he was great. I'm trying to come back this summer to take my children. This one is the best tour I have been on and it gave me another prospective of how far we came. Everyone should experience this tour. Life Changing.

We did the Whitney and Oak Alley plantation tours and both were awesome! We had a slight setback when we first started our tour because we were stuck in horrible traffic and our tour got started several hours later than planned. However, the tour guide Brian was very accommodating and made sure we were able to still get the full experience. Brian is very personable and just has such a positive attitude, he was great to work with. He gave us all of the history of all of the plantation houses on the way to Whitney. We were in a smaller passenger van so the tour was more intimate and the ride was very comfortable. I would highly suggest Crescent City tours and seeing both of these plantations. Whitney is a must as it is all from the slaves perspective and is something everyone should see and experience. Oak Alley has beautiful grounds and a glimpse of what it was like living in the big house. They also have info and houses on what life was like from the slaves side as well. The restaurant there is very yummy if you are looking for somewhere to eat. All in all it was a great day despite the setback and the rain!

We enjoyed both Laura and Oak Alley. Oak Alley has a great restaurant where we had a great lunch. Our tour guide, Brian Webber, picked us up and treated us like queens. I would recommend Crescent City tours to anyone.
