This guided tour presents the history of four generations of a Louisiana Creole family at Laura Plantation, including accounts from both free and enslaved members. The tour lasts about 70 minutes and is led by a local guide who shares personal stories based on memoirs and archival records from the United States and France. Visitors will walk through the 1805 Maison Principale, explore the plantation gardens, and see the original enslaved cabins from the 1840s, where the stories of Compair Lapin were first recorded. The tour focuses on true, firsthand narratives of the women, children, and men who lived and worked on this sugar farm. Some parts of the visit are outdoors, so appropriate clothing and good walking shoes are recommended. Only the ground floor of the main house is accessible for visitors with disabilities. The tour runs daily in English and French and continues regardless of weather conditions.
