Local Recs for Foreigners

Hey guys, the wife and I recently brought in a foreign exchange student into the house. But we’re trying to think of things to do with her that can be done over the weekends or a few days. We’re in the SWLA area but want things that can give her a good Louisiana experience and already are planning on NO, LSU game(s), and H-town. The wife and I also already had a trip planned to DC/NY and she’ll be able to come with us there and also to California since we’ll be going to visit my wife’s family there at some point. But any local recommendations? Certainly does not have to be exclusively Louisiana.
TIA

Swamp tours/nature walks in the swamp, getting her out onto a boat to go fishing/crabbing, doing some birdwatching, alligator spotting, etc. We take our coastal/estuary setting for granted, at times, but it is a dynamic and fascinating place.
