Large Airboat & Laura Combo

Video Preview

This 8.5-hour combo pairs the rush of a large airboat with the vivid, personal history of Laura Plantation, blending the wild and the colorful sides of Louisiana in a single day.

Your morning begins aboard a spacious, high-powered airboat built for speed and stability. Feel the rush of air as you skim across open water, then slow to drift past basking alligators and nesting egrets while your Coast Guard-certified captain shares stories of Cajun bayou life. The wide vessel offers panoramic views across expansive marshes and cypress glades — perfect for families and groups who want the airboat thrill with room to move.

After a comfortable midday ride aboard our executive bus, you'll arrive at Laura Plantation in Vacherie. A knowledgeable escort walks you through the brightly painted French colonial estate, narrating four generations of a Creole family through the memoirs of Laura Locoul Gore — a vivid contrast of color, culture, and personal history against the morning's wild bayou scenery.

Departure is at 8:00 AM with door-to-door hotel pickup included. Bring a light jacket for the airboat and comfortable walking shoes for the plantation.
