Exploring Baton Rouge Louisiana (Mississippi Road Trip, Part 3)

In today's video, Free Tours by Foot New Orleans guides Robi and Andrew and cameraman James visit Baton Rouge, Louisiana's state capital. MORE VIDEOS IN THIS SERIES • Mississippi River Road...
While it's younger and less often visited than New Orleans, Baton Rouge is still full of history and things to do that many visitors to the state don't know about.
We leave the highway for the more historic view of Highland Road on the way to the campus of Louisiana State University, where we see a stadium you can live in and what may be some of the oldest man-made structures in the world.
We also visit downtown Baton Rouge, where we see historic buildings, a US Navy pirate ship, and the tallest state capitol in the country - itself a monument to one of the strangest governors in US history. We finish in Baton Rouge's version of the French Quarter, which is even the home to Baton Rouge's own Mardi Gras.
This is the third installment of our 5-part NOLA to Natchez Road Trip series. Episodes release weekly on Tuesdays.

Please cherish the fact that you three were childhood friends and remain friends to this day. Not everyone has that, including myself for whatever reasons.

I love the camaraderie between Roby and Andrew. Plus the fact that you two can walk backwards in sync. 🌹

Cannot over emphasize how fabulous these tours are to enjoy. I do not drive due to disability so just adore the vibe of riding in a car and chatting. Bless you all for keeping us all sane during this pandemic Thank you

I think this might be the only Baton Rouge tourism video. Thank you for going off the beaten path in Louisiana tourism, very cool. The mounds site I don't think has barely any signage or information, I feel like it should have some panels or something saying at least what you guys said here. Also, there's a bus boycott mural I believe down by McKinley. I could see more videos including Southern/Scotlandville, Alton Sterling, Mid-city, Garden District, and the Lakes and Perkins overpass

Great info I learned a lot. I moved to Baton Rouge in 2014. There is a lot of historical places I did not know about and will be sure to visit. There was on place I was disappointed that you didnt mention. There is a Historical Black College that was not mentioned. HBCU's are important as well. Maybe next time.

This was fun! I know you'll never run out of things to talk about when it comes to a city as old and rich as New Orleans, but there's also a lot of charm in these more off the beaten path locations. I knew nothing about Baton Rouge until today. And your own personal stories, not to mention the vibe you have together as friends, adds a ton to the experience. Thanks for another great video! I've been telling lots of people about how delightful y'all are. (I'm a Midwesterner, so that's an honorary y'all.) :)

[@FreeToursbyFootHQ]

Thanks, John. Maybe we try that when we return to BR.

[@michaelcuchinelli5598]

Well the stadium is known as Deaf Stadium and visiting teams can and have gotten rattled by the roars from LSU fans. Downtown Baton Rouge back in the 1970?s was my play ground, it was a lot different back then. The casino river boats can move and they use to have to sail at different times. They changed that regulation due to the traffic on the river and due to how high the river level would sometimes get. They decided for safety reasons to let the casino river boats stay docked and not have to sail anymore but they are still able to leave the dock and sail the river.

@@FreeToursbyFootHQ The impression I got honestly, was, if you want to go somewhere, and you can't go anywhere else, try Baton Rouge. It felt empty and passionless. I watched the Garden District tour months ago and it felt like you wanted people to visit there. Kinda waiting for the craziness to die out so I can. This didn't. It may just be me, but I am thankful that awareness of BR as a location is getting out there.

@@jdpitt6 Hi Jeremy. I guess the off-hand remark at the start of the video wasn't the best choice of works. I don't think this video felt empty and passionless. I will say that though both Andrew and Robi have spent time living in BR, they are not experts in aspects of the city like they are in New Orleans. Also, this is more a road trip from New Orleans video and the idea of the video was to bring awareness of the city to our audience (which is mostly focused on NOLA).
