Beautiful place, very preserved, incredible history of owners and their slaves

I would have liked to take photos without a flash inside.

Would we recommend? Absolutely!A historic, large, & luxurious plantation full of dark history - history nonetheless.The lives impacted by this operation is truly saddening to contemplate! Eerily, as we walked onto the property, we felt a profound awareness of what tragedy transpired on the grounds! We toured the mansion/house, and as we walked among the homes of the slaves and the mighty oak trees on the ally, we pondered, "If these trees or walls could talk"!

Disappointed with the visit which lasted 30 minutes instead of 1 hourIt was the factory... having arrived 29 minutes early instead of the requested 30 minutes, we were delayed on the 30 minute visit after...

Grounds are lovely they gloss over the slavery which feels gross in 2024

The oak alley plantation may be the best plantation I’ve ever been too I’ve seen many don’t take this as racism please but because I’m a historian I met a young fellow reenactment of Romeo and Juliet with their cousins I fell in love with the place but the staff didn’t a few rude people but comes with the house as many acted like they were living in 1899 the house we went at night from the French American city nearby Denis or something my friend lenny was hurled insults by locals unfortunately we came to find the house burning but when we came back 3months later the house was rebuilt hurray the local law enforcement blockaded our entry and forced us out stupid gray haired people but the games of cribbage and moonshine handed around that I stole a bit much for the tickets were quiet expensive authentic moonshine and chicken steaks given out although I fear flies had tainted my meat ? I love the place and would come back but the staff need to be kinder to fellows from the north as they called me a Yankee next time I won’t bring my son though as some old white trash hag attempted to take him and give him to her Italian cousins will dodge Italians in future thank you

Very disapointed . A factory: 30 min guided tour of the house without the right to take photos for the price of the ticket is unacceptable. The guide speaks super fast so we who are French are incomprehensible because her explanations have to fit into the time of the visit. I was told that it was the number 1 plantation, I much preferred Whitney and Laura plantation. Hugely disappointed. I don't recommend doing it. Oh yes last thing you have to be 30 minutes before the time of the visit otherwise you spend 30 minutes waiting for the next visit and if there is no place your tickets purchased online trash: the tourist factory!!

Beautiful place. The avenue of oak trees is spectacular and the visit to the interior is very interesting. Not to miss.
Our tour guide, Aimee, was so amazing. She did a really great job of explaining all of the history of the Plantation. The grounds were so well kept and gorgeous. There are so many picture opportunities on the outside of the main house, but you can not take any pictures inside. The experience was eye-opening to hear about the experience of both Plantation owners and the slaves. Would definitely recommend the experience.

Beautiful Plantation Museum with plenty of displays and information. Nice guided tour inside the house, but photos were not allowed to share.We had advance tickets with a tour company. Did notice people who just arrived not being able to go in or having a long wait because it was sold out
