Romantic New Orleans Plantation Country

The beauty of the mansions, gardens and towering, moss-clad oaks, decadent cuisine and exceptional hospitality will speak to your soul. Listen to the whispers of great love stories drifting in from the Mighty Mississippi and surrender to their melody as you sip champagne on the verandah and stay the night surrounded by history.

Dine on a sumptuous plantation breakfast in the cool of the morning before taking your love on an oddly romantic swamp tour excursion – you’ll be clinging to each other when the alligators come to call!

These tours deep into the shadowy swamps will fuel your imagination with legends and lore. Hands-on history, from blacksmithing to open-hearth cooking, will remind you of a simpler time, when craftsmen passed down their trades from generation to generation. Soak in southern charm with a handholding stroll among the grounds, perhaps sipping a cool mint julep.

Dining in New Orleans Plantation Country is nothing short of exquisite. Treat yourselves to four-star dining at establishments like Latil's at Houmas House Plantation & Gardens or duck in to a roadside diner like B & C Seafood Market and Restaurant. Lyrical concoctions like Andouille jambalaya, filet gumbo or crawfish sauce piquant will leave your mouth singing the cuisine's praises. Why not plan your visit today they’re off I-10 between New Orleans and Baton Rouge.
