We opted for the guided tour and was so glad we did. Our guide was Ivy and she was very pleasant, knowledgeable, and patient. It was a really nice experience to be able to see all the homes from back in the 17th and 18th century. We also got to meet the local resident cats named Louie and Leo. The restaurant there was absolutely fabulous. We had lunch and the food was amazing. We highly recommend this tour.
Vermilionville sits on a beautiful tree-covered 23-acre site on the banks of the Bayou Vermilion with 19 attractions, including seven restored original homes with costumed artisans that provide demonstrations on crafts performed by Native Americans and early settlers. Vermilionville provides its guests with a place for history, music, food, cultural exchange, historic architecture and much more. This is a self-guided tour, where you can explore all of Vermilionville at your own pace.

Our group enjoyed the guided tour to gain a deeper knowledge of early life in Louisiana. The people in the homes were very interesting to talk to and listen to the history they could share. The “village “ is pleasant and scenic to walk around and experience. The January day was a bit chilly but the sun was out, nice for an afternoon adventure.

We had a great tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the area and the separate subject matter experts were a lot of fun to listen to as well. I would definitely recommend this tour.

We loved this visit. Several characters decorate the course: a lady explained her patchwork work , a superb result, hours of work. In the school we discovered a very loquacious musician who spoke very well French and who pushed the chansonette, a real happiness.... In short, do not hesitate to visit this place.

Outstanding, knowledgeable tour guide. I would highly recommend paying for the guided tour. Absolutely worth it. -We ate at the onsite restaurant which was good and stayed for the Cajun French music jam which was fun. An enjoyable time.
