What to expect

Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Pass By: Mississippi River, LA

Travel along the Mississippi River and arrive at the departure location in Marrero, a 35 minute drive outside of New Orleans.

Stop At: Barataria Preserve, Marrero, LA

You will be introduced to your captain and briefed quickly on procedure inside of the Airboat. Once everyone in the group is prepared to take off you captain will rev the engine.

This particular airport is powered by a 454 Chevy Engine that's capable of accelerating to speeds as high as 35 miles per hour. The boat is propelled by a large fan behind the boat which can deliver wind speeds of over 200 miles per hour. This tour is fast and loud!

Your tour guide will bring you from location to location around the swamp and make frequent stops for you to have encounters with the wildlife. Chances are you'll probably have some reptilian visitors. The alligators have no problems making their way to the side of the boat and showing off for the visitors. After the tour of the swamp is complete you will be returned to the original departure location to make your way back to New Orleans.

Duration: 2 hours

This tour was completely awesome and fun. Every single person in our family and on our boat ride had a fantastic time. The boat went fast, we saw lots of alligators, the swamp is beautiful, and my boys were delighted. I would highly, highly recommend the small group airboat tour. This was as fun ...

We did not know what to expect on a swamp airboat tour but much to our surprise it was a fantastic experience. The tour was very organized and left right on time. The Captain "Brad" was very knowledgeable about the wildlife and ecology of the swamp and peppered the discussion with gut busting l...

This is one of the funnest things I’ve ever done. We saw so many gators, we got to touch the gators, it was peaceful and beautiful. I think our guide’s name was Brett. He was funny and knowledgeable, and I found myself saying over and over, “I just love him” 😂

Our guide took the time to “play” with a few alligators right next to the boat. Literally tapping on their nose and feeding them marshmallows. Very cool!
