Just 30 minutes from downtown New Orleans, Airboat Adventures offers student groups an unforgettable opportunity to experience one of Louisiana’s most iconic landscapes.
Whether students are exploring the bayou for the first time or learning about the state’s rich cultural heritage, every visit blends excitement, education, and authentic local experiences into one memorable adventure.
Thrilling Educational Experiences
Choose a thrilling airboat ride across 20,000 acres of scenic Louisiana wetlands or enjoy a relaxing covered pontoon cruise led by knowledgeable local captains. Along the way, students discover native wildlife, unique wetland ecosystems, Cajun traditions, and the vital role Louisiana’s coastal marshes play in protecting our communities. It’s an engaging outdoor classroom where learning happens naturally through firsthand experiences.
Unique Vessels for Groups
Planning for large groups is simple. We can accommodate up to 200 guests split across multiple airboats, up to 200 guests across three covered pontoon boats, or up to 150 guests aboard the Betsy Ann Paddlewheel. The Betsy Ann seats 100 guests depending on the event layout, making it an ideal setting for student banquets, award ceremonies, performances, educational presentations, or private group events.
More Than Airboat Tours
Many student groups choose to extend their visit beyond the tour itself. Our covered waterfront pavilion overlooking the bayou provides the perfect gathering place for boxed lunches, catered meals, orientation sessions, or post-tour activities. With flexible scheduling, customizable itineraries, complimentary motorcoach parking, and optional round-trip transportation from the Greater New Orleans area, our experienced group sales team works with tour operators to create a seamless experience from arrival to departure.
Whether you’re planning a school field trip, band or choir tour, youth organization outing, or multi-day student travel itinerary, Airboat Adventures offers an experience that goes beyond sightseeing. Students leave with a deeper appreciation for Louisiana’s wildlife, wetlands, and culture, while creating memories they’ll talk about long after they return home.
