What you can expect

Escape the hustle and bustle of city centre New Orleans during a guided airboat excursion through the bayou. Explore the Barataria Swamp—a stunning wildlife preserve with more than 23,000 acres (9,308 ha) of marsh, trails, and waterways providing a fascinating glimpse into Louisiana's wetlands.

Travel south from New Orleans and climb aboard a comfortable airboat with stadium speeding. This modern marvel is fuelled by a powerful Chevrolet engine and can reach speeds of up to 35 miles per hour (56 km/h). Take off into the swamp, revelling in the way the airboat swiftly accesses areas inaccessible by foot or car.

As you cruise the swamp's meandering tributaries, allow your guide to bestow you with knowledge about the Mississippi Delta. Learn about the hurricane of 1915 that caused 13 million dollars worth of damage to the region, leaving an indelible mark on small towns along the Gulf Coast including Frenier, Louisiana.

Keep your eyes peeled for uncommon swamp species, including the infamous American alligator. Glimpse bald eagles, pelicans, ospreys, and owls, and learn to distinguish between alligators and crocodiles before your illuminating tour is through.
