Laura Plantation

If you want to visit a plantation I would recommend the Oak Alley one down the road . The Laura plantation is nice too, but not in as good of a shape as Oak Alley . Also no free walking around.

Not the prettiest plantation but the most intriguing and informative tour ! Ethan was a great tour guide and kept my attention the whole time. If you have to choose one plantation , choose this one!

Wonderful plantation tour . Save money and drive yourself instead of using a tour bus company. If you can, ask for Stephen. His knowledge on the plantation is amazing.

The tour is interesting and the staff is very knowledgable . However, it tells more about the family who used to run it then how the slaves were treated or life they had

Bizarre, beautiful, and haunting. Obligatory defensiveness when it comes to slavery, but the slave quarters speak for themselves.

Excellent tour ! This is a working plantation with quite the history. You can see where the slaves lived which is very sobering. Nice gift shop .

Incredible visit and insight into a creole plantation . While less magnificent than oak valley, the tour at Laura is much better. Our tour guide was karen!

Awesome tour . The guides are very knowledgeable and nice. The tell a story through the tour . Must go if visiting Nola

At first I didnt want to go here because of the -not that great looking-house but it was an amazing tour with an amazing story!

Our guide, Camille, was an amazing story teller. It was penetrating, engaging and we learned a lot about every aspect of life on plantation , slavery included.

Excellent tour , especially explaining the different classes , and treatment of slaves in the sugar cane plantation era and thereafter.

Rose is an exceptional guide and storyteller. Her passion, knowledge and willingness to share the whole truth with us will not soon be forgotten. An incredibly moving experience!

Bryan is a descendant of the former owners and brings personal levity to his tours . Note: if you want to learn about the active sugar plantation , you need to specifically ask for info from your guide.

Very informative tour . Great atmosphere with a nice story.

Wonderful tour . Well done and beautiful grounds. Interesting and informative.

Awesome plantation tours there. A great plantation with rich history. A must see.

I was a bit disappointed that I wasn't allowed to have my dog on the grounds . So if you travel with your pets I suggest not doing any of the plantation tours . None of them allow dogs

Tours ($17) offer a glimpse into life on a Creole plantation based on the memoirs of its namesake, Laura Gore.

The Duparc Plantation was built in 1805 and they grew sugar cane here. So sweet!

Ethan is a perfect tour guide. Best educational tour I've been on!

If you want to experience a plantation life of South, it is a must see...

If you go, get Stephen as your guide. He made the tour spectacular! Love him!!

Experienced a bit of history here, was blown away by some of the stories

The tour guides are very nice! If you're here on a tour , bring some water with you as you go! It takes a while.

Excellent tour . Guide Lisa was very good.

Jennifer was a great guide. The "Laura" from the name looked very much like my great-grandmother. Kinda unnerved me.

Very nice plantation !

We had Jay and he's in charge of the tour guides. He had a cold and he was still awesome!

Stephen was an excellent tour guide. Ask for him if you can.

Bryan was an excellent and funny tour guide! He really knew his stuff.

Bryan is the most amazing guide!

Ask for June a real creole who added to the the authenticity of the tour .

Norman was a fantastic tour guide! He was very informative.

Joey was a great tour guide ...very informative tour . The best plantation !

Brilliant tour guide.

Be prepared for an intense history lesson and some emotion

#Excellent & educational tour

Wonderful setting and a great tour . Definitely going again!

Greeted by rude, unfriendly people who were too busy to answer simple questions like "where should we wait for the tour guide?" Among many other issues. Don't waste your time here - go to Oak Alley .

Tour guide laura was wonderdful! Lovely tour and story.

Be sure to meet the two cats, Marian and Alfie.

This is a superb destination. Our guide joey was brilliant. Well informed and never boring.

Ask to ring the slave quarters ' bell!!

Not the best plantation . If short of tine go to Oak Alley instead.

Carol gives a great tour !

Jasmine gives a great tour !

Tour guide; Carol, was a delight.
