Рет қаралды 8,567
Күн бұрынHello Explorers! In this video we make our way through Lafayette, Louisiana in search of things to do. This place was awesome! We started by taking a swamp tour along Lake Martin to see real Louisianan wildlife and vegetation. Then we stopped at Vermilionville Village to catch a glimpse of history and Cajun life of the 1800s. Finally, we stopped at the Acadian Cultural Center to check out Acadian life. It was a pretty cool day with a few restaurant stops along the way. Come along as we dip our toes into the bayou!

I lucked out when my son went to Lafayette for college on baseball & academic scholarships. Clean, fun town with the nicest people I've ever met. We made lifetime of memories & friendships. Their restaurants in the area will beat most in the New Orleans area. So many hidden gems. High Five for finding a precious gem of a town, and I'm a Texan!

That was an awesome swamp tour. That alligator was ready to protect its nest. You found a great place to eat too. Looks like you guys are on a great trip something similar to what I did in April but I used Amtrak.

Champagne Swamp tour is amazing as well. I have done it twice and looking forward to a third time in May.

Borel's tour was a very local tour. The guy who took us out grew up on the lake. He was funny and very personal. It was an incredible experience. A swamp tour should definitely be on your list if you are visiting Lafayette! I am glad you have had such a positive experience with your swamp tour! We will have to check them out if we go back to Lafayette. 🙂

Like 10 👍 Greetings from Naples, Florida. Some neat places, indeed. I can relate to the swamp as I lived in Alexandria, LA for a few years and would canoe around swamps like that. Thanks for sharing, have a great weekend. 💯

We loved Lafayette! I think we drove through Alexandria on the way home. The swamp tour was so fun! It is so beautiful out there on the boat. Thanks for stopping by! 🙂

Was a great view of the Alligator's nest...you don;t see that often.

We had a lot of fun on the swamp tour. Borel's tour was really good. He knew everything about the swamp, and he was funny. We did not know that was what an alligator's nest looked like until he showed us. Thanks for watching! 🙂

You did great a great job at hitting some of the highlights of my part of the world. As you said, 1 day is not even close to seeing everything in the heart of Cajun country. Tabasco factory in Avery Island, Shadows on the Teche in New Iberia, Acadiana Village, Downtown Lafayette, so, so much more. And you just had a literal taste of our food. So glad that you enjoyed our little corner of the world. Come back soon y'all!

We are in love with Louisiana! The people were so friendly and the food was delicious! We will definitely be back to see some more! Thanks for watching! 🙂
@willaimbeckham8171 10 ай бұрын
go back without the kids, stay downtown at Juliet or Blue Moon and take in the downtown area and check out some of the music venues, take the short drive over to Avery Island and tour the gardens and the Tabasco plant, walk the UL campus and visit Cypress Lake in the middle of campus. There are to many things to do in Lafayette to only stay for a day
@FloridaandBeyond 10 ай бұрын
We would love to visit Louisiana again! We loved it! Thank you for all the suggestions! Lafayette was a lot of fun, and yes, you need more than a day and 2 nights to explore. 🙂

There is no swamp and alligators in Lafayette Louisiana

We drove just 20 minutes to Lake Martin in neighboring Breaux Bridge. It is so close and something we were told to do in Lafayette. Also, according to Google, "Breaux Bridge, just a few minutes northeast of Lafayette, is counted within the larger Lafayette Metropolitan statistical area." So it is a smaller area counted into a bigger city. 🙂
