Had been led to believe that there was wheelchair service with Grayline for this trip based on chat with Tripshock service rep. Also called Grayline directly and told the same. Was not the case. My husband had to climb steps into the bus--extremely difficult for him. I applaud the bus driver for all his help in getting him on the bus despite this and off back in his wheelchair so that we could take the tour. I would rate higher if it weren't for this. Very stressful.

Plantation Tour updated and corrected.
The tour at Oak Alley has significantly improved. It now looks at all the residents of the plantation. The last time I came slaves or slavery were not mentioned. Now they have built 8 slave cabins with lots of information and replicas. The house tour includes information about the slaves.

Oak Alley Plantation was really cool! Super old house with a lot going on! Tour guides are very knowledgeable! The trees lining the walk way are magnificent! About 400 years old! They have slave houses set up like they used to be. Definitely a must see!

We have a number of options with the Plantations. You can choose one, or two, or one with a swamp tour, or even one with two plantations with a brunch and a swamp tour. Come tour with us.
