Destrehan: Plantation Tour
About this experience
At Destrehan Plantation, you’ll be introduced by name, not just to the people whose portraits hang in this historic home, but to many of the enslaved men and women who built this plantation.
Visit the slave quarters, which offer a reminder of the brutal reality of plantation life, and see the sugar cane fields and processing equipment, which were a significant part of the plantation's economy.
Destrehan Plantation is only 25 miles away from New Orleans and 10 miles away from the New Orleans International Airport.

HMBotel notes for choosing your ticket
Compare the inclusions above with your plans: admission, a guided visit and a combination ticket may cover different services. The venue name alone is not enough to compare them.
Check the meeting point and arrival instructions before adding another activity. The displayed duration describes the activity; plan travel from your hotel and your return separately.
Booking and payment take place with Tiqets. On that final page, confirm the date, participants, visit language, final price and cancellation rules; an indicative HMBotel price is not a guarantee of availability.
