Airboat Adventures

Such a good time! Hottest day on record and we still had blast. Tour guides were knowledgeable and friendly, and the iced drinks before the tour helped too! We also paid for pick up and drop off, highly recommend. Beautiful views of nature and wildlife.

We had an absolutely fantastic time! The tour perfectly blended sightseeing and an exhilarating ride. The boat sped along, providing a refreshing breeze in the heat. We encountered stunning vegetation and a variety of animals, including birds, cows, fish, and, of course, alligators. A highlight was when our guide let us feed the gators marshmallows. An unforgettable experience!

P.S.- Be prepared to get wet!

Family fun on the bayou!
Are you looking for alligators? This is the place.
Easy booking and pickup right from the hotel made this an effortless and carefree adventure.

They even have their own Indoor tank with a rare albino alligator that would not have survived in the wild but is well cared for in this facility.

Bring the whole family or good for solo traveler's, too.

The guides are knowledgeable and informative and take time to answer any questions.

Well... This is as good as it gets. Not only you get to see gators but you can enjoy the beatiful nature and learn about the bayou. Our tour guide was very informative, funny and also showed a deep care for nature and his fellow man. I really loved this experience.

The Airboat tour was great. Staff had everything slowing and easy from getting tickets checked to getting everyone on airboat. Larry, our guide, was especially great, knowledgeable on the history and the area, funny and very interactive with his passengers.

Highly recommend the Airboat Adventures tour. You’ll see a lot and learn a lot about the wildlife and plant life of the swamps. Knowledgeable and funny tour guide. Loved seeing all the alligators and learning more about them. Really enjoyed ourselves. It was hot so stay hydrated and wear a hat!

This was by far one of the best excursions we have had! Staff checking us in could have been a little more friendlier. But over all great! Brad was our captain and WOW he made the trip! If you can up grade to 6 man excursion do it!!! We had gators up close he petted like kittens! Learned so much about the marsh, canals and everything in between! O and for those who like adult beverages there’s a bar you can take a bucket of beer with you!!

Better than I imagined. Highly recommend if you’re visiting New Orleans and want the full swamp alligator experience. If you’re lucky enough to land a tour with our guide, Ronnie then you’re in for a great, fun, unforgettable ride.

We definitely saved the best tour for last. Had an amazing time with our guide, Danny who has 15 years of experience in these water ways. This tour is handicap/special needs accommodating. The trees and flora were in full bloom and YES we saw alligators. Even got to meet a special one who loves marshmallows. Recommend you bring a poncho.

Absolutely phenomenal. I’ve done a tour before, but this company was wonderful. Our boat actually broke down within the first ten minutes, but they immediately got another boat and we were entertained by our captain and a swamp puppy. The rest of our tour was so much fun. We saw so many alligators and some beautiful bayous. Very good prices compared to all the other ones in the area too.

Cory, our guide, was great. He was funny and so well versed in all things swamp and gator. I learned quite a bit. The tour is an hour and a half, so make sure you are hydrated and have sunscreen. 10/10 I highly recommend this if you are visiting southern Louisiana

We booked tickets for a smaller boat for a more personal experience and it was the best choice! We saw so many alligators! The driver was incredibly knowledgeable about the area, the vegetation, and the alligators. We learned so much! It was the best part of our trip to New Orleans.

We saw a lot of alligators! We even saw 2 momma raccoons with babies and an Eagle. Our guide was so fun and very informative! I highly recommend Airboat adventures for a swamp tour!!

We had a fabulous time! There were 8 people in our group and this was accommodated easily. The bus picked us up at our hotel in the French Quarter. The driver managed to get us there before other large groups and gave us some tips. Ronnie our guide was amazing, pointing out other wildlife along our tour and educating us. We all fed the gators at least once if not twice. The time flew by. We would definitely recommend!

Our experience was amazing I highly suggest paying for the small airboat! It is an experience you will remember for a life time. Our guide was hilarious & so knowledgeable. We watched him as he fed the alligators, pet it, kiss it, & interact with it as if it was a pet dog! It was so fun! He allowed each one of the riders to feed the alligator and patiently waited as we all tried to capture pictures and videos. I was going to purchase the tickets for the bigger boat being that they were cheaper and I figured the experience is all one and the same! Boy was I wrong! Based on the stories of the other families & couples I know I made the right choice going with the smaller airboat. The experience was so unique & personal. We went through smaller areas of the swamp that the bigger boats wouldn’t have fit. Traveling through the swamp with the draping trees, cool breeze & sounds of the bayou felt so relaxing. The view was absolutely beautiful! Don’t think about it, just do it! I highly recommend!

This is a great tour company! They're very organized and everything is very clean and well maintained. The pick up in the city was easy and on time, as well, the people working for this company were always respectful and kind.

We went on the large airboat. We were lucky with the weather - we went mid August and expected everything to be so hot, but it was cloudy so it was an enjoyable ride that wasn't too hot or muggy. They provided earmuffs, which is good because that airboat fan is very loud. We thought the ride would have been faster but I guess with a boat that size, they really can't go that fast. We went to a few spots through the swamp and were able to see a good number of young or baby alligators, but no adult size ones this time. It was cool that the tour operator was able to bring some alligators up close to the boat with some bait. I only wish we could have seen more wildlife, but that's not really in the control of the company as nature tends to do its own thing. They also have a beautiful albino alligator! Overall though, it was enjoyable.

Tour company - 5 stars (respectful, organized, clean)
Tour itself - 4 (only because we didn't see as many things, but again, not in their control)
Overall - 4.5 stars

If you’re visiting New Orleans, a swamp tour on an airboat is an absolute must-do! Our experience was unforgettable, thanks to our amazing tour guide, who made the trip both fun and informative. The scenery was stunning, and seeing the local wildlife up close was incredible.

A word of advice: definitely bring water, hats, sunscreen, and depending on the weather, if you’re wearing shorts, something to put on the seats. The heat out there is no joke! But with the right preparation, you’ll have an amazing time. Overall, the tour was fantastic, and our guide’s friendliness made it even better!

Wonderful Experience! Our guide was Greg and he made the adventure like a family member welcoming is home. The alligators and racoons were also part of the adventure. Don't take home the moss or you will find yourself with lice. lol Do the additional VIP tour to find out the history of the moss. I even met the infamous Sasquatch.

This tour was great! Thrilling and insightful. We saw a lot of wild life and were educated on the indigenous plants 🌱. I loved it! Captain Larry was a master commander. He stepped on the gas to make a fun and thrilling ride. We were giggling the whole time. Ha. Great adventure. Definitely recommended.

This was the most fun thing we did on our whole trip! Our captain was great and was able to maneuver our boat through the smallest of areas, showing us beautiful flora of the bayou and gators who would come see him because they loved him. He has a bond with them. We loved it!!
