See the Cajuns of the Bayou living and surviving in harmony with the swamps. Here, the waterways are their highways. From the relaxed comfort of our covered New Orleans Swamp Tour Boats, you will drift slowly past a 2000 year old Indian Burial Mound, a Cajun cemetery and a fishing village! You'll admire the wildlife that made the Barataria Swamps the Crown Jewel of the Louisiana Purchase.

    Such a fun and educational experience! Captain Ernie knew the bayou inside and out. We laughed, we learned, we can’t wait to do it again on our next trip to town!

  • Well worth the cost of admission.

    Our captain was very knowledgeable and I did the pontoon vs the other higher speed crafts. We saw several gators and learned a lot about the swamps. Beautiful day on the water.

  • Excellent Adventure!
