Louisianna

Volver Tours / Louisianna

Louisianna

$2900 per person

Un périple en Louisiane est teinté de la nostalgie de l’Amérique française, fièrement créole et résolument cajun, entre une ruralité à fleur de bayou et une distinction patricienne héritée d’un art de vivre, dont les plantations restent les témoins.

Ce voyage  est aussi placé sous le signe des rencontres authentiques, bercées par des rythmes jazz & blues et les parfums de la cuisine cajun.

Après quelques jours à la  Nouvelle Orléans, on  découvrira  les grandes plantations,  le long du Mississippi. Chemin faisant, on embarque pour un voyage dans le temps en visitant Natchez la française qui a su préserver son ambiance d’autrefois,  puis la ville deLafayette et ses bayous.
