The grounds are huge and include some slave quarters and beautiful trees. The gift store has a wheelchair accessible toilet. However if you are unable to walk at all the house yours are up stairs so you won't be able to get in. The house is very old but very interesting. There are some spots to sit in a couple of the rooms if you do climb stairs and need to sit down.

Oak Alley Plantation is an amazing place to visit. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and entertaining. The home tour was fascinating. After the tour we walked around the grounds. Great information on slave quarters. Our entire family, including our teenage sons, enjoyed it. Thank you for a.wonderful time.

Beautiful grounds. Reconstructed slave quarters with well represented history. Main house is pretty but would have been better if was brought back to original layout (grandeur) & kitchen/cooking area. Lunch wasn’t great but the snacks were good. The trees & grounds are lovely.

Oak Alley is a historic plantation and one of the best preserved. They have tours of the "Big House" starting every 15 minutes and the tour guides do a great job of describing the history of the building, the plantation and its owners. The tour lasts about 50 minutes, but you'll need another hour to visit the rest of the grounds and take pictures.

This was a beautiful experience and we learned so much. The "Big" house was beautiful, the property was stunning and the entire experience taught us so much. Robert, though was only part of the beginning with introductions, he was still fantastic. Mr. Anthony who was our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and had our attention from the very beginning. The shop was nice and we made a few purchases as well.

I was so glad I did this tour! It’s an amazing property and has a lot of history. I really like how the tour focuses on the different life experiences of people at the plantation. Everyone should go learn about this part of American history. Tony was the guide for the big house and he did a great job. He was one of the best tour guides I ever seen and was very knowledgeable and passionate about the house/history.

This was a highly educational and interesting experience. I visited as part of an all day bus tour with Gray Line. I learned so much about the history of the plantation, and also got a glimpse into how the locals live in the area today. The plantation is located in a beautiful rural area outside of New Orleans. We received a guided tour of the owners’ historical home. The tour guides were friendly, passionate and informative, and were happy to answer any questions the guests had. We then got to walk around the grounds of the property. They also have a great restaurant and cafe where I had one of the best croissants I have ever experienced! I would recommend this to anyone visiting the New Orleans area.

While I did enjoy my visit to Oak Alley, it fell a bit flat for me compared to other plantations such as Destrehan, Evergreen and Whitney. Considering that Oak Alley seems to be one of the most well known plantations and was previously owned by one of the wealthiest families in the area, I was expecting a little more. The young man (sorry - can’t remember his name, but he had long-ish hair and baseball cap) who did the talk on the work and living conditions of the slaves was fantastic. So knowledgeable and clearly very passionate about history. I really enjoyed his talk.

I've been to this restored home a dozen times. My first visit in 1963. Anyone reviewing it as less than 5 has no idea the upkeep involved in a historic artifact of this caliber. Just the building if empty is a work if art constructed by a self-taught enslaved African man. The trees 28, over years old and one of the greatest Live Oak avenues anywhere. One of largest restored and peaceful plantations on the mighty Mississippi. I always spend 2 or 3 nights there. Peace descends at 4pm and one is alone with the ghosts along the Mississippi. Don't go with Disney is your favorite vacation.

A large, beautiful, antebellum home, rich with important history. We enjoyed walking the grounds and sitting under a large oak tree just taking it all in. They have large tour buses bringing people in from cruise ships for excursions. We were lucky enough to only have three tour buses there and it wasn’t crowded at all.
