Viavant Travel Guide

New Orleans

The Cajun Encounters tour took me to the Honey Island Swamp where I saw my first up-close, wild alligator. Not just one, but a whole bunch! Not to mention the turtles and local birds that are a lot different from the birds I'm used to in the north. 

Our tour guide, Bishop, was fantastic. He was funny, personal, and knew his stuff. He also managed to attract not just gators but wild pigs as well. 

If I go back to New Orleans--no--WHEN I go back, I fully intend on going on this tour again.

7.2/10 Good! (1,006 reviews)
The hotel is so dirty and run down, it didn’t feel safe, our room was not clean, towels stained, the sink was still used dirty. The breakfast area was filthy and it is no where near anything. Worst hotel we’ve ever stayed in and my husband is a Wyndham platinum member.

Our room was very clean, the staff was over the top helpful! We had an unexpected circumstance regarding my husband's wheelchair. The concierge was very accommodating, extremely helpful to help me find an alternative- this was during Mardi Gras, which complicated the process
