Sobre esta atividade

Itinerário
Este é o itinerário normal do produto

Para em: Lake Pontchartrain, Nova Orleans, LA

Saindo de Nova Orleans, faça uma curta viagem até Slidell e você chegará ao Lago Pontchartrain em Honey Island Swamp, uma reserva de vida selvagem que é uma das últimas áreas pantanosas em Louisiana.
Seu guia o receberá a bordo de um barco personalizado de fundo plano, com capacidade para 22 passageiros. O barco menor e mais tranquilo pode entrar em passagens estreitas das folhagens do pântano para que você veja mais e chegue mais perto da vida selvagem. Essa é a maneira ideal de admirar o ambiente exuberante da região cajun.
Enquanto seu guia explica a história dos mangues e do ecossistema pantanoso da Louisiana, fique alerta para avistar a vida selvagem, incluindo jacarés, guaxinins, corujas, javalis, ratões-do-banhado, cobras, tartarugas, ursos negros, águias-americanas e muitas outras espécies de pássaros. Veja bem de perto os crocodilos selvagens enquanto seu guia compartilha fatos sobre essas feras cheias de dentes, que podem pesar até 453 kg (1.000 libras). Seus ancestrais vagavam pela Terra junto com os dinossauros. Os cientistas estimam que eles existam há mais de 150 milhões de anos.
Deslize com segurança pelos férteis pântanos, aprendendo com seu guia sobre a cultura cajun e como os habitantes locais utilizavam o pântano para obter comida, abrigo e remédios. Você verá até uma autêntica vila cajun, que só é acessível por barco. Entenda por que as áreas pantanosas estão desaparecendo lentamente e conheça os esforços para preservar os tesouros naturais da Louisiana.
Após uma fascinante excursão de barco de duas horas por Honey Island Swamp, seu guia retornará à praia. Então, você poderá seguir por conta própria até seu 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.
