About
Gators & Guns
With Gators and Guns we bring you a unique experience you can only have here in Louisiana, shoot Full-Auto Machine guns and then tour the swamp by airboat!
Gators and Guns comes to you, picking up directly from most Downtown and French Quarter hotels and Airbnbs’. From there we take a quick drive to the best shooting range in Greater New Orleans where certified shooting instructors guide every guest through their choice of shooting package from start to finish! Everything is included from pre-loaded magazines to targets and eye and ear protection.
When we are done at the range we make our way to the Jean Lafitte Swamp for a two hour tour of the swamp by airboat. These flat bottom high speed boats are the best way to see the bayous of south Louisiana, they offer access to even the smallest hidden inlets while also providing an exhilarating ride.

- Hotel pick up and drop off
- Door to door transportation
- Ear and eye protection

More than a tour — it’s the ultimate New Orleans adrenaline experience.
