Our airboat ride was a lot of fun with John as our guide. He made every effort to provide an entertaining ride and get us up close to alligators.

Overall this tour was great! Plantation was absolutely beautiful and we saw many alligators on our airboat tour. However, the driver was running a little behind in the beginning and it seemed rushed. We also broke down on the side of the road on our way to the airboat part and had to sit out in the 86 degree heat and sun for about an hour while they were trying to get us to the airboat destination. Our airboat tour time was cut a little shorter but it was long enough to enjoy. They apologized but it would have been nice to try to make it right.

Air boat tour was the star of my vacation Our tour guide Chad was amazing , very informative and fun !! Gators were in abundance!! Would recommend this tour to anyone !!

The beauty of this plantation is bar none, exquisite. The live oaks are the real show. Stunning landscaping. This is mostly an educational experience of slavery and sugar cane. All three go hand in hand, you cannot have one without the other two. The guides do a wonderful job of explaining all three with honesty. It was a brutal way to exist. My children learning that the stunning beauty before them, was built by the horrible ugliness in the fields. Its important to remember the good, the bad and the ugly of life during these times so we never repeat them.

The mansion landscape was beautiful - thanks to the slaves, and to close with a natural beautiful swamp landscape - thanks be to God

Great fun filled day. The plantation house is beautiful and quite the sight to see. The airboat ride was fun, not overly fast and not scary at all. Loves seeing all the gators that come right to the boats for marshmallows!

Definitely worth the extra price for the small boat. Was fun & much better than other air boat tours I have taken.

Had a great time all day. Driver called on the way to the hotel this morning and was helpful explaining the area. The tour of the Oak Alley Plantation was very informative, but my favorite part of the tour was on the Ragin Cajun air boats! We had Tyler on the "Tiger Bait" boat, and he was very knowledgeable about the local plants and fauna, but knew the Alligators the best. I lost count at how many unique birds and alligators we saw during the tour. Overall, the day was spaced out perfectly so you were never at one place too long. Would definitely recommend the Ragin Cajun Airboat Tours!
