Tour Overview

Historic River Road Plantation & majestic oaks!

Enjoy the history and culture as you drive through some of the most interesting and beautiful neighborhoods of New Orleans. On this tour, you also head up River Road to visit a beautiful antebellum Plantation. While there you will experience life in the French and Spanish Colonial periods, through the antebellum grandeur of the sugar barons, to the ravages of the Civil War and the rebirth of reconstruction. You will find yourself immersed in the rich history of Louisiana when French was the language, and the white gold of sugar drove the economy. Family stories of those free and enslaved set against the fabric of history will intrigue every visitor to the site.

Participants will have to provide car seats for passengers under 2 years old.

Itinerary

We will pick you up at a preset location. We drive and do a tour of New Orleans before heading upriver to a historic plantation. I give you the rich and diverse history of New Orleans as we travel through the beautiful neighborhoods. This gives you a better understanding of the difference between the city and plantation life. Once we arrive at the plantation, you have an hour-long guided tour and then you have about an hour to explore the grounds before heading back to the city.
