Whitney Plantation was an amazing trip. Only plantation that shows life from a slave perspective.

Ultimate Swamp adventures was awesome. We rented a car for the day and did a plantation tour in morning / lunch than afternoon swamp tour. We did the bigger, slower boat as it is much quieter and you see more gators and birds. The air boats are more of a cool fast loud thrill ride than tour.
