New Orleans Small Airboat Ride with Attraction Ticket Shop
Hold on to your seat as the fast, light boat takes off through the tidewater cypress swamp, which borders Jean Lafitte National Historical Park and Preserve. The flat-bottom airboat allows access to even the shallowest of water, where many tidal birds and swamp creatures make their homes. Your guide narrates the sights, such as tupelo-gum trees and cypress trees covered with moss, as you whip through the water. Learn about the bayou’s native creatures, such as nutria, snakes, turtles, and alligators. Back in Lafitte, stop by the albino alligator exhibit or grab some food before leaving.When booking, customize this tour to fit your schedule. You can choose from morning or afternoon departures; self-drive to the town of Lafitte or bus pickup at your New Orleans hotel. Once you arrive at the launch site, step aboard your small airboat (max 10 passengers).
