Small Airboat & Guided Whitney Combo

Video Preview

This 8.5-hour combo pairs the thrill of a small airboat with the powerful, guided history of Whitney Plantation, capturing the wild and the weighty sides of Louisiana in a single day.

Your morning begins on a nimble, high-powered airboat carrying only 6 to 9 passengers. Skim across shallow mudflats and twist through narrow cypress channels where larger boats can never reach, stopping beside basking alligators and nesting egrets while your captain shares stories of Cajun bayou life.

After a comfortable midday ride aboard our executive bus, you'll arrive at Whitney Plantation in Wallace. A knowledgeable escort walks you through the nation's first slavery museum — the restored slave cabins, the Wall of Names, and the moving memorials drawn from the Federal Writers' Project interviews — adding context and answering your questions throughout.

Departure is at 8:00 AM with door-to-door hotel pickup included. Bring a light jacket for the airboat and an open mind for the museum.
