With the success of the Louisiana Tour 2016, we will be expanding on the 2017 Tour. We will be traveling to different and exciting places and adding another day. Please check back often with updates and schedule of the 2017 tour. The schedule listed below is a rough estimate of the times we expect to follow, with the LSU exception. This year we want you to explore the things along the route we have chosen. There are many gift shops and sites to see along the way and as the length of the drive is much shorter the day should be more enjoyable.
