Large Airboat & Oak Alley Combo

Video Preview

This 8.5-hour combo pairs the rush of a large airboat with the cinematic grandeur of Oak Alley Plantation, blending the wild and the iconic 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 Oak Alley Plantation. Built in 1839 and originally named “Bon Séjour,” the Greek Revival mansion is framed by the legendary corridor of 28 giant live oaks, planted in the early 1700s. A knowledgeable escort walks you through the “Slavery at Oak Alley” exhibit, the Confederate Commanding Officer's Tent, the Sugar Cane Theater, and an 1890s-era blacksmith shop — a place that is both postcard and classroom.

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.
