Swamp Tours
Alligators and air-boats! Just what you’ve been waiting for! The bayous on the outskirts of New Orleans are filled with interesting plants, birds, and wild animals, like palmettos, egrets, and alligators!
We pick you up. The cost is $95 per person on a 6 – 8 passenger boat and $75 per person on a 12 – 16 passenger boat. All swamp tours are 4 hours in length from the point of pick-up (two hours on the boat and two hours of transportation). Don’t be fooled by lower prices on 45-person airboats! Our price is the lowest available for the personal attention and camaraderie you get on these smaller airboats. Smaller boats mean bigger fun! Do it!
