Customer Reviews

From the moment the bus picked us up until the moment it dropped us back off. It was an amazingly beautiful day. Every American should visit this plantation which is preserved the history of our country’s slavery in a beautiful way. I took the self-guided tour and was handed a recording device so I could easily follow along the 14 stops. It’s very powerful and something you definitely should do when you visit this area.

Timing was perfect. Our driver was super nice. The bus was very comfy they I just wanted to stay in there and sleep while the bus was rolling smoothly by the awesome driver. The self tour was great and I liked that there’s the app that you can follow along to as well.

Nicholas was an excellent, knowledgeable and personable guide. He truly made the tour more enjoyable and interesting, not just about the Whitney Plantation, but also about New Orleans in general. Thank you.
