5.00First of all, Gisèle was a delight. Her narration kept us entertained and informed on the drive from the city, and she was accommodating for a woman with difficulty walking. Very friendly and would highly recommend.
Went to the Laura Plantation and Whitney Plantation. Rhe Laura Plantation had a wonderful guide Amelia.

4.00A beautiful excursion, very interesting to find out what the reality of slavery was. Just a French translation on the way of the history and economy of Louisiana would have satisfied me completely.
Excellent, Informative, Would Book Again!

5.00We did the Whitney Plantation (Museum of Slavery) and St Joseph Plantation Tour and greatly enjoyed the experience. Gisele, our guide, was lovely; very well informed, personable, and did everything to ensure we had an educational, entertaining, and comfortable experience. Both the sites are well worth the visit. Whitney provides important perspective of enslavment on the 'German Coast.' St. Joseph's is a great architectural landmark with unique history. We will definitely book tours with this company on any future visits to NOLA - highly recommend!
Great tour and guide!
