Go on a swamp tour with the Louisiana tour company and get Captain Bebop as your tour guide! He's a younger guy who definitely makes it a little more fun than it already is :)

This is your ultimate Bayou hike/trail without getting too far away from NOLA. You’ll most likely see alligators , snakes, turtles and all sorts of birds. Good times!

Swamp Explorer

Beautiful trails ! Contact SWAMP EXPLORERS to rent a canoe or a kayak to paddle the bayous of the Barataria Preserve.

This is the place to see gators ! And it's free.

Stop by the visitor center and hopefully you'll have the same hilarious exchange we did with the man behind the desk.

There are giant spiders EVERYWHERE. Arachnophobics beware!

The place was absolutely beautiful with a stunning view. Here’s the list of yummies: catfish, soft shell crab pitre, crawfish etoufee, pork chops, and alligator stuffed mushrooms. There’s vegan too! - Lisa Rodriguez
