We were born in Louisiana, and enjoy our travels and road trips to many small towns in the Bayou State, but we also tour larger cities such as New Orleans, Shreveport, Baton Rouge, Monroe, Lafayette, and Lake Charles. Visit over 60 travel destinations in Louisiana, plus other cities along the borders of neighboring Texas, Mississippi, and Arkansas as well. And don't miss our special section on the Louisiana State Capitol in Baton Rouge. Our road tours focus on travel, tourism, area attractions, lodging, photography, history, and architecture. Visit North Louisiana hill country communities such as Ruston and Natchitoches, and Cajun towns of South Louisiana's Acadiana region including St. Martinville and New Iberia along historic Bayou Teche. Today's Tour Highlights For starters, take a tour of St. Francisville on the Great River Road along the Mississippi River, and nearby Cat Island, a well known birding destination. This area also offers eco-tourism nature-related events such as the annual Spring Audubon Pilgrimage, Audubon Country BirdFest and the Feliciana Hummingbird Celebration. And don't miss Natchitoches, the oldest town in the Louisiana Purchase on beautiful Cane River.
We love to visit places like Breaux Bridge, St. Martinville, New Iberia, Lafayette, Houma, Morgan City, Thibodaux and Donaldsonville. And we savor the taste of boiled Louisiana crawfish! Journey to Leesville and Toledo Bend in the west near the Texas border, and meander through East Louisiana to explore Jonesville and cross the Mississippi River into Natchez. Louisiana on Reality TV Louisiana is a popular setting for the movie industry, and several hit TV shows. The new "Cajun Pawn Stars" series on the History Channel is filmed in Alexandria at the Silver Dollar Pawn & Jewelry Center, and debuted on January 8. As we watch "Swamp People" on the History Channel, we remember the good times we've spent in South Louisiana towns such as Pierre Part and Pecan Island bordering the bayous, the great Atchafalaya swamp, and the Gulf of Mexico.
In North Louisiana, "Bayou Billionaires" focuses on the Dowden family of Shreveport who strick it rich from Haynesville Shale oil. And several familes from Keachi star in "My Big Redneck Vacation" on CMT, while the A&E Network show "Billy the Exterminator" centers on the Benton, Louisiana business of Vexcon Animal & Pest Control. Baton Rouge has received national attention as the locale of Red Jacket Firearms, the business that is the subject of the new hit show "Sons of Guns" series on the Discovery Channel.
