About the event:
Compared to our 2hr tour, this tour generally runs at a more relaxed pace, with more time built in to observe wildlife, take photographs, soak in the scenery and ask questions. Your guide is able to share a wealth of knowledge with you about the wildlife, ecology, natural history and conservation of the area. Each Extended tour has a custom-tailored feel and is an approximately 6 mile round-trip paddle, with stops along the way. You will want to pack your own drinks and snacks or a simple lunch to eat on the water.
You do not need to be a seasoned paddler to enjoy our Extended tour. The still/slow moving water is suitable for beginner kayakers, but the longer tour time makes this the choice for outdoor enthusiasts. You should be reasonably fit enough to spend an elongated time seated in the kayak and enjoy going off the beaten path! Our Extended tours give you the option of going solo or tandem, so pick this tour if you are set on having your own kayak and not sharing with your partner or mates.
Manchac swamp’ still waters, lush vegetation and wildlife sightings have captivated the hearts of nature enthusiasts for decades, offering a glimpse into the heart of Louisiana’s iconic landscapes. The ecosystem is also a crucial resource that offers invaluable insights into wetland ecology. Levees along the Mississippi River combined with saltwater intrusion in the Pontchartrain Basin have led to changes in the hydrology of Manchac Swamp. Take a deeper dive with us into one of the most stunning corners of this swamp, while considering the delicate balance of the ecosystem in the region.
The Extended Tour is our premier tour for birding and nature photography because the longer time format and route maximizes our chances to make quality observations of wildlife. On any given day, we can potentially spot egrets, herons, ibis, barred owls, ospreys, bald eagles, anhingas, ducks, woodpeckers, prothonotary warblers and more; plus occasionally, rare species such as the roseate spoonbill!
