Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Adventures of Jean Lafitte, 5145 Fleming Park Rd, Lafitte, LA 70067, USA
Set out on a 20,000-acre (8,095-hectare) tract of tidewater cypress swamp close to the Jean Lafitte National Historical Park and Preserve. Your flat-bottomed boat is leisurely guided through the shallow marshes. Discover bayous lined with mossy cypress and tupelo-gum trees as your captain points out a stunning variety of wildlife. Enjoy a fully narrated tour by a local guide.
Prepare to see plenty of alligators in the warmer months (and warmer days in winter), some of which may be out sunning themselves on logs! Your guide may even feed the gators, affording you amazing photo opportunities. Also keep your eyes open for turtles, snakes, egrets, herons and ibis. You may even catch sight of a hawk, owl or bald eagle. In the cooler months, look for white-tailed deer, raccoons and the large rodents known as nutria.
Duration: 1 hour 30 minutes

The Bayou is amazing.
Took lots of fotos and videos.
We throughly enjoyed the ride on the Pontoon boat, best investment. We got memories galore.

The views were great, so many alligators were seen!! Bus could have been more prompt, didn’t take away from the experience. Would recommend to anyone visiting Louisiana.

Great tour! Easy to book and check in. We chose to add the transportation which was better for us (KP was a great driver). You’re able to get a drink at their bar to take with you. Our tour guide was great and knowledgeable. We saw lots of gators so it was well worth it.
