Default Help!! Baton Rouge to New Orleans

How can we get from Baton Rouge to New Orleans (and vice versa) quickly and
inexpensively, without renting a car?

Any suggestions??

Thanks,
Injun Joe

It's only Approximately 70 miles.

Rental Car 1 way for about $40.00 (Then $40.00 back 1 way)
Bus?
If you live in Baton Rouge, Give a friend a few bucks to drive you?

How inexpensive are you looking for?

There are 2 possibilities for bus service. One is Greyhound (I don't
know the schedules or fares) and the other is a connecting service
from Amtrak that operates about 3 times a day for a cost of $16 each
way. I suspect that the Amtrak bus is quicker - I think the Greyhound
bus swings south into Houma before continuing on to New Orleans. Note
that the drop-off location is the same for both in New Orleans (the
train station), but I can't vouch for Baton Rouge.
