Other routes than I-10? There are multiple secondary roads to take. That's what we've always done. You see a lot more.
For Louisiana, I don't recall the road number but it parallels I-10 just to the north. It goes through wonderful Cajun towns, including Eunice which is a MUST stop. Wonderful music and food and fun people.
You're referring to Hwy 190. Drove the section from Opalousas to Baton Rouge last week and the road didn't seem too bad. I-59 in Mississippi beat us up. I-10 wasn't as bad as I expected but I only drove the stretch of I-10/I-12 from Baton Rouge to Slidell..
To OP: At Baton Rouge, you want to take I-12 unless you specifically want to visit New Orleans. The WWII Museum there is a worthy detour and get a Shrimp or Oyster Po-Boy while you are there.
