Manchac Swamp Tour with Optional Transportation from New Orleans by Cajun Pride Swamp Tours
Be immersed in Louisiana's backcountry with its meandering bayous and wetlands that guests can only experience in the historical Manchac Swamp. Venture where creatures of the swamp see boats daily and recognize them as part of the normal environment. These wild beasts are unafraid and responsive to the boat captain's call, so they peak out from the underbrush frequently coming directly to the boat. In the safety and comfort of the boat, guests can actually come within a few feet of jumping alligators. As the boat drifts through the waterways guests will learn about the Louisiana wildlife in the swamp, particularly the life and habits of the American Alligator.

- Narrated boat tour of Manchac Swamp

Excellent experience

We originally booked a different swamp tour and they called to tell us it was over booked. We were happy when TripShock called to offer to switch is to this tour at a discount. That is good customer service.
We were very impressed with this tour. We had Captain Tom, who was an excellent guide. His love for the bayou is genuine and we learned so much on the tour. We saw countless alligators and raccoons and even a few turtles. He had a baby alligator on board that we got to look at up close. We would highly recommend both tripshock and this swamp tour!

This was my first swamp tour and I really enjoyed it! I learned a lot about swamps and the animals that live around it. The guide was really nice and answered all the questions that anyone had. We saw a lot of alligators and even had the chance to touch a baby alligator.
