Destrehan Plantation Tour with Dianne Honore, who is a descendant of Jean Noel Destrehan, is a tour you DON"T want to miss when visiting New Orleans. Located along the great river road, Dianne takes you through what it was like to like to be a house slave, what the life of a field slave was like, cultural influences that affected the flavors of food in Louisiana, and even does a musical demonstration with a real Mardi Gra Indian about what the sounds of music in the fields was like. This is a plantation tour near New Orleans unlike any other you will experience.
