Question New Orleans plantations

hi,

We are traveling to New Orleans this summer, and are looking forward to the atractions and summer concerts there.

We want to explore the city's cultural attractions too and I was looking for suggestions on New Orleans plantations?

Default Re: New Orleans plantations

Hi there,

The Louisiana plantations truly offer a glimpse into how live was back then, and you'll thoroughly enjoy touring them.

A couple I can suggest for you are:

- Destrehan Plantation, which is one of the best known in the city and one of the best reasonably priced ones. When you tour this plantation house, you'll see the life and history of the Destrehan family and the various jobs performed on the plantation such as cooking, carpentry, and metal working.

- The Longue Vue House and Gardens sits on eight acres of breathtaking land, and you can take tours of the grounds, explore the house, and witness the extensive collection of American and English antiques and art.
