Arrival, information and getting around
|
|
|
Greyhound arrives in Lafayette at 315 Lee Ave and Amtrak a few blocks north at 133 E Grant St at Jefferson. There's an
airport
south of town on Hwy-90. The
local bus
system is of little use to visitors; to get the best out of the area you'll need a
car
, as the dance halls, restaurants and hotels are spread out some distance from each other. If you need a
taxi
, try Yellow Checker Cab (tel 318/237-6196). The Lafayette Parish
CVB
is at 1400 Evangeline Thruway at Willow Street (Mon-Fri 8.30am-5pm, Sat & Sun 9am-5pm; tel 337/232-3737 or 1-800/346-1958,
). Other useful information
