Really worth seeing! Great experience! Highly recommend. Not only are you able to see the gators up close, but you are also able to see other wildlife such as wild boars and raccoons.
Leaping alligators ! ???? Seeing them in the wild gave me a whole new respect for this fascinating, ancient, & intelligent creature! Captain John was very knowledgeable & entertaining.
A great way to tour the swamps and see the wildlife . The gators and the boars were seriously cool to see up close. The price is worth it if you're getting picked up since they'll come to your hotel !
Loved having Captain Greg as our tour guide. We got to see lots of alligators , a raccoon, and wild boar . The stray cats are skittish but friendly .
Captain Judah was an amazing tour guide. He is an excellent boat captain and he really knows the swamp and the wildlife . Got me excellent pictures of Brutus
The highlight of our family trip, we saw alligators , a feral pig , birds, all led by Captain Greg on a covered boat, highly recommend it!
A great experience if you’re visiting the area. We saw so much natural wildlife ! They also pick you up and drop you off.
Good tour , saw alligators , birds, snakes and even wild pigs . Our tour guide also gave us a good overview on the subsistence living on the river . But you see many more gators in the warmer months.
Captain Greg was fun and meaningful in his guidance during the tour . We saw a lot of alligators , raccoons and birds apart from the swamps and the flora. Highly recommended
Amazing tour guide, Captain Bishop . He has a genuine interest and knowledge of the wildlife and history out there. He was really funny and made the night time tour well worth your money. Do it!!
We took the small boat tour ; well worth the extra money! Ryan, our captain was fabulous! Would definitely recommend!
Did 3 tours with them. City/Cemetary, Plantation, and Swamp. Our guides were great. January is not the time to see gators . They had a baby indoors.
Excellent tour ! We saw alligators , raccoon, turtles , egrets, wild boar , & more! Captain Eddie is fantastic!!
This is a must when you visit! Bring a cooler with some beers and refreshments along with you, sit back, and enjoy the ride.
Captain Greg totally owned us. Great tour , worth it. We saw many different animals and gators as well of course. Would do that again. Magical!
Where did those wild boars come from?!? Good gator tour and good guide. Lured and fed every creature marshmallows and hotdogs .
Jacob was a very knowledgeable professional captain. The tour was very interesting even in the cool weather there were lots of wild life.
Great guided visit! Got to see a small gator , some wild hogs and a raccoon
Really well organized tour with knowledgeable guides
Like all wildlife tours , it's a bit of a crapshoot whether you'll see anything. That said, just being out on the river is a cool experience.
On the FIRST night swamp tour at night of the year. Awesome time we saw lots of alligators , birds and other wildlife .....very peaceful too
The tour is great. Wait 'til the spring when alligators stop hibernating. Our witty Capt. Bishop found some cooperative gators who beckoned to his commands to eat hot dogs & marshmallows . Super fun!
A must do while visiting New Orleans! Check out the beautiful swamp along with the historic City of New Orleans!
Great wildlife tours . Knowledgable staff . Shuttle picks you up from New Orleans!
So sweet, so informative. Highly recommended for your first time in New Orleans.
Great tour . We saw four alligators and some wild pigs ! Fun for the whole family.
When you come to NOLA you cannot miss this tour . !!!!!
The night tour is worth the extra cost because you get to hear the frogs, see the wild boars and gaze at the stars.
This tour was awesome. Captain Ted was our guide and he had a wealth of information and funny stories! Highly recommended!
Same rules apply as the school bus . Keep your arms and legs inside the vehicle at all times.
Thank you Captain Everett for an awesome tour ! ????
Night tours are the best. The weather cools down and you get to go deep into the swamp at night.
Our guide Nolan is awesome! Great stories and could spot all the wildlife on the swamp for us. Have fun!
Great and affordable swamp tour ! Captain Bishop was the best!
Capt. Garret was awesome! Pulled right up to a gator ! Front of the boat was great for video.
Great tour guides! Super informative.
Great!!! Alligators bit the railings of the boat. Saw wild pigs .
Great tour ! We had capt Troy - the wild pig whisperer! So much fun!
Get there by 9 and see if you can get on Capt. Bishop's boat
Honey Island Swamp Tour was awesome. Captain Troy was amazing :)
For a good time...ask for Csptain Greg. ????
Ask for Captain Bishop he will have you rolling with laughter.
Saw 15-20 gators ! Awesome swamp and a great tour guide. El Wompo is da coolest
Well worth the trip out. Cap"n Garrett was a total bonus. Way easy on the eyes too.....
Captain Bishop is amazing. One of the coolest things I've done in my life.
Highly recommended
Even though it was too cold for alligators they had other surprises up their sleeve
Pray that you get Capt Garret. He is excellent; so knowledgable and funny!
Ask for Captain Luka!
Recommend this Swamp tour to everyone. Captain Bishop is amazing.
Really cool rustic old bridge - but very stable & secure. I agree with others....go at sunset for some breathtaking views - Michelle Conner
This company is awesome. Highly recommend them b/c the tour prices are reasonable, guides are interesting and they will let you drink on the tour. - Katherine Meyer
