I went to both, a single day apart, and I'd say the Whitney changed me forever, and I've already forgotten Oak Alley. Oak Alley tells you what you already know, whereas the Whitney opens your eyes to whole other parts of history that you'll be wondering why you've not heard before. Some of the exhibits there are permanently in my mind and I still get chills thinking about them. The Whitney was top-notch and truly educational; I recommend it a great deal more than Oak Alley.

Q:
Can you buy ticket at the plantation?
A:
Yes. We there in off season for tourist so there was no problem in taking a tour. However if you are visiting during the tourist season I would reserve on line. Well worth the visit.
A:
Q:
Can you drive and park at the Plantation?
A:
Yes. There is plenty of parking.
