Baton Rouge is the capital and second-largest city in Louisiana, United States. It is located in East Baton Rouge Parish, which has a population of 4,492,076 (as of the 2010 census). The city of Baton Rouge has an estimated population of 225,388 (2009 census estimate). The metropolitan area, known as Greater Baton Rouge, has an estimated population of 802,484 (2010). Baton Rouge is located in the southeast portion of the state along the Mississippi River. It owes its historical importance to its site upon Istrouma Bluff, the first bluff upriver from the Mississippi River Delta, which protects the city’s residents from flooding, hurricanes, and other natural disasters. In addition to this natural barrier, the city has built a levee system stretching from the bluff southward to protect the riverfront and low-lying agricultural areas.
Hi, I just wanted to let you know the great service we had with McTavish Travel. We worked with Carolyn to book our trip to Australia. She took care of our visa's and flights. Our son lost his passport in Australia, we called Carolyn to find out what we could do about our flights to come back. Carolyn worked with us in cancelling and re-booking some flights. Even with the time change, we couldn't always get a hold of Carolyn. Carolyn gave us an email address to contact her after hours which we were very thankful for. Thanks again for the great service Carolyn. We will be using McTavish Travel again.
