Shawn was a great airboat driver and guide. We had a great time! The swamp was beautiful and the flowers were blooming!

One of the highlights of my trip to New Orleans last weekend. Seems like there are several options for swamp tours but THIS is the one I highly recommend, and so happy I ended up with. As a solo traveler, I booked this one mainly because I was seeking hotel pick-up and a help with securing a small group airboat booking. Glad I did it- I received texts prior and day-of to ensure I was clear on pick-up and logistics. Driver was Dexter who was efficient with pick-up of all those in our group. Upon arrival, everything went smoothly with check-in (getting waivers signed, assigning you to specific airboats via kitschy-sounding "boarding pass" names). These guys are pros for sure, and "family-owned" you can tell throughout the establishment and workings (including their house cat who roams the premises, ha!) We were able to survey the shop/merch, decor, and had fangirl moment when we encountered the founder, Randy, who was so kind and happily took photos with us. The tour itself was so fun/exciting. You get it all- history of the swamp (including flora/fauna), Q&A re: alligators, alligator sightings, high-speed airboat treks, list goes on. Our operator was Dalton who was AMAZING. SO engaging, sweet, funny, and just so great with our eclectic group from all over the country. Highly recommended. More details/photos with the specific operator (Ragin Cajun Airboat Tours) can be found on Yelp.

The transportation from my hotel was very well organized and Isabelle was a very kind and service minded driver providing us with interesting info and good tips to NOLA's sights, restaurants etc. The boat ride was a blast.

What a fun afternoon we had! Our tour guide was great and very knowledgeable! There were plenty of gators to see and the boat ride was amazing.

Our host, Isabelle, was a first class guide in every way possible. E flint community ovation and logistics for transportation, great history and narration en route, good boat tour and captain, Isabelle even recommended a restaurant that turned out to be the best of our trip (not a tourist trap). I highly recommend anything she organizes.

This tour was amazing. We were on the VooDoo Queen airboat with our driver Dalton. He was fabulous!! It was amazing how close we got to the alligators and Dalton was even able to touch Jack (one of the big ones)! You can really tell he loves and respects the wildlife. We were able to see a variety of gators and even a bald eagle. The hotel pick up offered with this tour was a bonus. Jessie and Mr. Brett were our drivers, and each were awesome drivers. They took good care of us. Many thanks to all for a great time.

This was a great tour for us. Our boat was the VooDoo Queen captained by Dalton. He was a great driver and his interactions with the gators was amazing. He really cares about the area and the wildlife. He made sure we saw plenty of various size alligators. One reason we chose this adventure was the hotel pickup, right on time and comfortable ride out to the boats. Thanks for a great experience.
