We took Lyft to our pick up location, arriving early fir our 0845 pick up. At 0900 contacted vendor and van arrived 0905. 15min into the drive to the swamp destination, the tour was cancelled due to weather (light rain). 2 good things: - refund was prompt - there are so many things to do in New Orleans, we didn’t have difficulty filling our time.

Had a great time. Isabelle picked us up right on schedule and even gave us a mini tour on the way to and from the fan boat facility. The fan boat guide did a great job getting the animals involved in our tour as well 10/10 would do again and again

The swamp tour was so much fun!!! Been to Nola so many times and this was my first time out of the Quarter. Only complaint was the drive out in the shuttle van. Our driver was going over 95 mph and it was a white knuckle experience that no one enjoyed. Not safe.

From your bus driver Brett, to your Air Boat Captain Dalton, the experience was awesome filled with information on the wildlife and plants in the swamp. They both shared information on the history of New Orleans and showed how experienced they were handling Alligators. Lastly, the adventure was relaxing and FUN!
