Swamp Tour Field Trips

Depart on a 90-minute tour through the Atchafalaya Basin on one of our comfortable tour boats. While on the tour, you'll explore the diverse natural beauty and rich ecological systems of America's largest and most mysterious ecosystem. Local guides will explain from personal experience what it's like to live on a houseboat or survive off the swamp--all while pointing out the abundant plants of the area and getting up close and personal with the wildlife. Louisiana Student Standards are incorporated into this tour. Additional on-land activities are available to add-on to your field trip experience. These programs feature topics such as: baby alligators, invasive plants, bald cypress trees, and more!
