Cajun Encounters Tour Company

"Awesome! We had Lane as our guide and he was amazing. Very knowledgeable while being entertaining. He was super patient and took his time pointing everything out and stopping to let us take pics. No rush at all. Surprisingly he said he’d only been doing it for 9months which was hard to believe because it seemed like he must’ve had much more experience. Even thought it was early spring, we so tons of wildlife and several gators. Great tour!"

"Great tour! The swamp tour itself was great - we got the smaller boat and were able to traverse some of the smaller waterways. It was very peaceful out in the swamp and we saw several alligators, turtles, egrets, raccoons, great blue herons, hawks and whatnot. The bus driver Michelle and the boat captain Neil were both fantastic - they kept things light and fun, exactly what you’d like on a trip out. Would highly recommend"

"We really enjoyed our swamp tour with Cajun Encounters! It was a very comfortable and entertaining bus ride with Michelle as our driver. The gift shop where we got our wrist bands and snacks prior to the tour was clean and organized. Restrooms had clean toilets, running sinks, and air conditioners to keep cool. We had Lane as our flat-bottom boat tour guide. He was really knowledgeable and kept the tour fun and lighthearted. We saw lots of alligators and turtles sunbathing, a cute raccoon, snakes, and a variety of birds. Really nice experience overall and we captured lots of nice pictures to look back on."

"Dee was one of the best tour guides I have ever met. She is engaging, funny, informative and helpful. I never thought the trip to the swamp was going to be so fun. I’m not a morning person and she was the best. Captain Todd was an excellent boat tour guide! He was so knowledgeable and funny. He was really chill and had a great vibe! He stopped a lot to get close to the wildlife. I would recommend Todd and Dee and Cajun Encounters to anyone visiting Nola!"

"We really enjoyed our swamp tour! My kids (ages 2, 8, 9, and 10) all loved seeing and learning about the animals and plants. Captain Barry made sure the tour was fun and educational, answering all our questions and ensuring we had ample opportunity to get some great shots. We saw gators, snakes, raccoons, turtles, and birds. Very exciting and memorable. Highly recommend!"
