Dr. Wagner's Honey Island Swamp Tours

Picture the moss hanging on gnarled cypress trees as you travel into one of the wildest and most pristine river swamps in America. With the swamp tales of pirates and sightings of Big Foot in the back of your mind, you may be just a little bit nervous at first, but after your first boat ride you'll want to go back again and again! You'll be overcome by the primitive beauty of the cypress trees rising from the water...the sweet smell of wild azaleas in the air....

Tammany Trace

Reviewed By susanlT3958KH - Sarasota, United States

Our goal was to ride once again on the Tammany Trace when we visited New Orleans. We stayed overnight in Slidell and embarked on our ride by 10am at the trailhead (with clean restrooms). Beautiful trail, well maintained, and rural so it's very quiet as you bike. We only biked 5 miles each way, but we've biked other sections in the past, and it's all great!
