Louisiana’s Cajun Bayou

On this edition of American Road Trip Talk, discover Louisiana’s Cajun Bayou, just 35 miles south of New Orleans and home to the unapologetic Cajun culture of Lafourche Parish. The bayou stretches over 100 miles, flowing through communities and defining traditions. Festivals, charter fishing trips, tours through mysterious swamps, classic regional architecture and restaurants that offer you a chance to dine like a local: there is plenty to see and do “up the Bayou” and “down the Bayou.” Our guests are Cody Gray and Ian Wallis from Louisiana’s Cajun Bayou tourism office.
