Our tour guide was articulate and welcoming. It was a beautiful day and the grounds, and, of course, the huge old oak trees were amazing. We ate lunch there. The staff was helpful and efficient. Ev… Full review by Stay460339

Beautiful big old house and estate, but extremely light on the history. While we were interested in learning about the history of plantations and the enslaved people who had to suffer under this, thi… Full review by kirstenbirsten
We have our own car so we will be driving to Oak Alley to purchase tickets. Once we have toured the Plantation are we able to buy tickets for the Swamp tour at the same ticket booth? We see the combined tour on the website but we don't need the transportation to and from since we have a car. How does all of this work?

Hi, I bought everything online, when you buy the visit to the swamp it gives you the option to go in your own car.
How do I get an admission ticket to tour the Plantation and grounds. I will be driving in.

Check the website. I am sorry I can not answer that. We were part of a tour group on American Cruise Lines. If u are in New Orleans, be sure to leave a day to tour the WWII museum there. It is awesome. Three buildings and we were there all day til closings and still did not see everything.

Yes. I don’t have a problem purchasing a ticket there on site for admission, what I don’t really care for is having to go thru the third party tour booking. Just want to know if I show up and pay to get in can I tour??

I did not want to pay online through a 3rd party either (extra charge online). I watched schedule to ensure there were plenty or time slots available in the days ahead and purchased the tickets in person the day of. It works out perfectly, but honestly the ticket prices were a little more in person so it only saved our family of 5 about $5 versus if I would have bought them online. So, either online or in person should work.
