Para en: Lake Pontchartrain, Nueva Orleans, LA

Desde Nueva Orleans, diríjase por carretera a Slidell hasta el cercano lago Pontchartrain y Honey Island Swamp, una reserva natural que es uno de los últimos humedales protegidos de Luisiana.
Su guía le da la bienvenida a bordo de un barco con fondo de cristal hecho a medida con capacidad para 22 pasajeros. El pequeño tamaño y tranquilo barco puede pasar por pasajes estrechos en el follaje del pantano, así que podrá ver más cosas y acercarse más a la fauna y flora. Es la forma ideal de disfrutar del exuberante entorno del país cajún.
Mientras su guía le explica la historia de los humedales y el ecosistema del pantano de Louisiana, esté atento para ver la fauna local, como caimanes, mapaches, búhos, jabalíes, nutrias, serpientes, tortugas, osos negros, águilas americanas y muchas otras especies de aves. Vea de cerca algunos caimanes salvajes mientras el guía comparte datos interesantes sobre estas bestias dentudas, que pueden llegar a pesar 453 kg (1.000 libras). Sus antepasados una vez poblaron la tierra con los dinosaurios y los científicos calculan que han existido desde hace más de 150 millones de años.
Deslícese de forma segura a través de los fértiles humedales, mientras su guía le habla sobre la cultura cajún y sobre cómo los habitantes de la zona han utilizado el pantano obtener comida, viviendas y medicinas. Incluso podrá ver un auténtico pueblo cajún al que solo se puede acceder en barco. Descubra por qué los humedales están desapareciendo lentamente y los esfuerzos para preservar los tesoros naturales de Luisiana.
Después de un fascinante recorrido en barco de 2 horas en Honey Island Swamp, el guía le llevará a la orilla. A continuación, puede llegar por sus propios medios a su próximo destino.

The tour was fantastic. It mixed between fast and slow speed. The boat captain is knowledgeable and fun. Maybe we were not that lucky. We encountered only small alligators. However, we could learn so much about swamp life during the tour. Children are required to wear life vests and this could be very hot due to high humidity. It will be better if the boat equips a few ring buoys.

Captain Emmett was funny and knowledgeable. During the tour, we encountered not only alligators but also raccoons and pigs. We learned a lot about ecosystems at the swamp.

Never a dull moment! Ask about Oreo, the swamp pig. Stumpy too! Jacob, our guide was very knowledgeable, insightful, and he made the tour extremely interesting. I heard and learned so much about not just the swamp, but the wetlands areas of Louisiana from Jacob! He and the other tour guides on the other boats talked and teased each other was the boats past each other indicating these guys really like their job and sharing their swamp habitat knowledge. Very insightful and picturesque tour! Wild life in abundance! I took excellent photos!

Other than they did not start on time and we had to wait for other people that were 15 mins late the tour was good. The guide provided us with the ability to see many different creatures and vegetation in the swamp. It is good of them to help keep the gator with the broken jaw alive by keeping him fed. The guide was very knowledgeable and answered every question our group asked.

Capt Ron was fun and informative. Highly recommend this tour. The alligators were not out during our visit but Capt Ron made it very captivating with the boars, raccoons and snakes. Also shared the legacy of the old alligator, Brunist.
