  • The Manchac Swamp Bridge, Ponchatoula, LA 70454, USA
    Explore the Manchac Swamp, the second biggest cypress swamp in North America in tandem or single sit-on-top kayaks (think stable and easy). As you adventure through the Spanish moss laden cypress swamp, a knowledgeable guide will share stories and give an overview of the benefits and trials the swamp is currently facing. We do NOT feed the wildlife and the animals; alligators, turtles, birds are non threatening.

  • 2155 LA-18, Vacherie, LA 70090, USA
    After our kayak tour, we head to B & C Seafood where we stop for an opportunity to experience some Cajun food. (You have the option to purchase food.) Step out of your comfort zone and try some fried alligator, gulf oysters, crawfish, soft shell crab, frog legs or keep it simple and get the smoked rabbit gumbo. If you don't want to push your palate, then I suggest the red beans and rice. A southern staple! After a fun lunch, we venture off to the Whitney Plantation.
    60 minutes
  • Whitney Plantation, Wallace, Louisiana, United States
    The Whitney Plantation offers you an opportunity to experience the story of plantation life in Louisiana from the perspective of those enslaved. It does a good job of not glorifying the ownership. The 45 min drive home gives you a quick chance to nap prior to hitting the town.

We happened to be the only ones who signed up for the tour, and they still ran it. Ali was fantastic. Communication was clear and quick, she was friendly and easy to talk to, it was comfortable to kayak together and share a great meal afterwards. She was knowledgeable, sharing insights from both local and visitor perspectives, and clearly inspired by the beautiful natural surroundings of the bayou! We saw a lot of great wildlife and felt as though we made a new friend.

Stephanie was awesome: Personable, competent and considerate. We did the combo kayaking + plantation tour with lunch. The scenery was beautiful and the Barred Owl we saw was Magestic. Stephanie gave some great insights into the Bayou and it was clear she was in her element. Lunch was delicious, but Do Not drink the tap water. (Ugh!). The plantation visit, told from the view of the enslaved people, was shocking and humbling but well worth the emotional discomfort. One note: the trip advisor site is NOT correct. It says the tour begins at 0800 and the meeting instructions say to arrive 1h 15 min before the tour starts. This is incorrect!!! (If you happen to show up at 0645, as we did, the Voodoo Lounge is open 24/7 and has fun people and interesting drinks.) Be at the meeting place at 0745. Enjoy!

Swamp was very peaceful. Kayak was great way to experience. Whitney Plantation is very powerful and somber experience
