Interesting, but we ended up porting there twice due to the ship's propulsion system failing. ...

We chose the included tour of Rosedown Plantation, which has an interesting history. However, the time allotted for the tour only afforded enough time to visit the house, not he extensive grounds. Viking needs to add 30-45 minutes to this tour, especially since there is no rush to get back to the ship. ...

Guide’s lack of ability to pronounce an “S” made it impossible to understand anything he was saying (and NO, this is not a case of a heavy Louisiana accent! I lived in Louisiana and know the difference). Led footed drivers also could care less about their passenger’s enjoyment. It is matter-of-fact, pile ‘em on the bus, fly through the tour, get ‘em off the bus. At over $1,000 a day per person, ...

We were only half a day here. Didn't take the included plantation tour (but were told it was nice). Bus ride would have been an hour. Didn't take bus into town because that was an hour ride also. So two hours round trip on bus. Left either two hours at plantation or in town. We opted to walk ourselves on levee near where ship was docked. Both of us needed the exercise. ...

Added at the last minute due to the change of itinerary. They did a great job and it seemed seemless. Took the excursion to Rosedown, Tami the tour guide and Stanley the driver were a hoot! Stopped in town for a "gift shop" break. In the afternoon, took the excursion to the Myrtles. There was also a continuous shuttle from the boat into the town. ...

A site that still removes the seeds and bails cotton for local growers for market. It has done this since about the 1850s, thus has a replica of Eli Whitney's original hand operated cotton gin and the only remaining steam powered gin in the U.S. The site still grows cotton but it is a seasonal crop and now highly mechanized. They have also rescued several slave cabins so the tour goes into slave ...

We enjoyed the Rosedown Planation and tour. It was fun to see the local housing but the shopping stop at Grandmother's Buttons was a waste. ...
