Overview

Oak Alley is one of the most magnificent plantation tours because of the 28, evenly spaced, huge Oak Trees that go from the river road to the Plantation House. Built in 1837 using Greek Revival architecture, and restored in 1925, this house could to be straight out of the movie “Gone with the Wind”. In addition to antique farm equipment, the twenty-five acre grounds also feature a restaurant, blacksmith shop and a souvenir shop, of which you'll enjoy some free time to peruse at your leisure. It is a comprehensive plantation experience.

I picked the wrong plantation tour. I was interested in the life of a slave on a plantation. This was more about the owner of the house, how the house was built and life as a slave master and How they lost their fortune.

Learning about the slaves life. The sugar cane movie. The tour guide was good. Great bus driver. When I compare it to Whitney, more personalized and more history,

Was a nice tour - all the facilities were impeccable, the bread pudding at the cafe is superb! Wish we had just a bit more time. Beautiful place.

The grounds were impressive. Our tour guide seemed very knowledgeable. The house tour was informative an extra 30 minutes on site at the end would have been nice. The trip home wad extended for us because our bus included people going directly to a swamp tour. This added 30 minutes more for those...
