Louisiana Tours
The plantations along Louisiana's River Road — Oak Alley's quarter-mile oak canopy, Whitney Plantation's unflinching history, Laura Plantation's Creole architecture and Houmas House's gardens — sit far enough from New Orleans that a tour is really a half-day drive, and close enough together that visiting two in one trip is routine. MSY Limo Service drives that stretch of River Road regularly, so nobody in your group has to choose between seeing the sites and staying alert behind the wheel.
We book these as hourly, as-directed charters rather than fixed round-trips, because tour lengths vary by plantation and nobody wants to watch the clock while touring a historic site. Your chauffeur waits during the tour and is ready the moment you're done, whether that's 90 minutes or three hours.
Groups flying into MSY specifically for a plantation day get a flight-tracked pickup straight from the airport, a flat-quoted drive out River Road, and a return either to the airport for a same-day departure or to a downtown hotel for the night.
Oak Alley and Laura Plantation sit close together in Vacherie; Whitney Plantation is just across the river in Wallace; Houmas House is further upriver near Darrow. Most groups choose one or two for a half-day, though a full-day combination is possible with an early start.
Because tour lengths and guided-tour start times vary by site, we quote plantation trips hourly rather than as a flat round-trip. Your chauffeur confirms the plan with you — which plantations, approximate tour lengths, and any lunch stop along the way — before the day begins, then adjusts in real time.
Round-trip from a downtown hotel or MSY, the drive itself runs 50 to 70 minutes each way depending on the destination, so budgeting a half-day for one plantation or a full day for two is the usual plan.
Sprinter vans comfortably carry larger family or friend groups touring together, and we're used to brief stops for photos along the oak allées or riverbank that a self-driven tour often skips to stay on schedule.
