Beyond the Bayou offers intimate, locally guided adventures through the swamps, plantations, and vibrant cultural traditions of Southern Louisiana. From spotting wildlife in the Atchafalaya Basin to exploring Cajun country cuisine...
I picked this tour due to the fact that they don’t feed/bait any animals (which was very important to me), offer smaller group sizes, and can pick you up from your hotel. There was a total of four adults on a small boat that could hold up to 8 people. Sunny was our captain for the day and she lived up to her name! She is a biologist and gave us lots of great information about the bayou. We were able to see two alligators, two turtles, and a handful of birds. Overall this was a fun way to spend the morning and get out of the city!
