The tour was good and informative but I was surprised we could not take any photos when inside the home - even with flash off. I don't see the problem myself and this marred the trip a bit for me.Full review by Diane R

Overall, a good place to tour. A traditional American plantation. There was a lot of people, so it takes awhile to get around and see things.Full review by hollygF3221FN
No lunch is not available. There are vending machines and small amounts of snacks you can purchase until you reach town. There are no restaurants nearby either.
Hi there, I love the idea of driving in your own car and going at your own pace. I'm curious if there's a map or guide to help you decide which plantations to visit? Do you have to join a guided/scheduled tour at some of them? Thanks!

We thought we did our research on this and started our trip on the plantation tour. We discovered most of the tours are guided so you have to wait for the time of the tour. Some locations you can walk around by yourself, but to get into the planation house you need to be guided. What we did discover is that the internet only list a few of the plantations. We found out at the first plantation there are over a 100 plantations you can see or visit. Once we started our drive (loved the river drive) we found better plantations that were not on the internet. My suggestion, start at Laura or Oak Alley and ask for directions to more or just lose yourself on the river drive and find more yourself, they are not too far apart.
