Q&A

Q: Are there any age restrictions for the airboat tour part?

A: Yes, children under the age of 5 are generally not allowed on the airboat due to safety concerns. Kids ages 5-12 usually need to be accompanied by an adult. It's definitely a fun experience for older kids and adults, so if you're thinking of gifting it to a family, they should have a great time!

Q: What should we wear for the airboat and plantation tour? Is it muddy?

A: Definitely wear comfortable clothing and shoes that can get wet or muddy—sneakers or waterproof shoes are best. The swamp can get muddy, especially if you walk around Oak Alley a bit. Also, don’t forget sunscreen and bug spray, as it can get pretty buggy out there!

Q: Can we reschedule if it rains on the day of the tour?

A: Yes, if the weather is bad, they usually allow you to reschedule your tour without any additional fees. Just make sure to give them a call as soon as you know! The swamp is an awesome experience, but safety is their priority.

Just booked the Oak Alley Plantation and Airboat Combo Tour—any tips?

I’m taking my girlfriend on this combo tour in New Orleans next month! I’m super excited about the airboat ride through the swamps. We’ve heard about the history at Oak Alley as well, which seems fascinating. Any tips on what to bring or expect? Also, how intense is the airboat ride? We’re both new to this kind of thing!

Oak Alley and the Airboat Tour were AMAZING!

Just got back from the Oak Alley Plantation and Airboat Combo Tour! The plantation was beautiful and so full of history. The airboat ride was the highlight, zipping through the marshes like a thrill ride. Totally recommend this for anyone visiting New Orleans. And the guides were super knowledgeable! Worth every penny.
