New orleans to clarksdale then clarksdale to memphis.? -

I will be traveling around the U.S. from april to september 2010.part of my trip is going to be in the south and I really want to visit clarksdale, Mississippi.I have been spending ages trying to find a service that can take me from new orleans to clarksdale (as i wont have a car). but as of yet i havn t found anything.could anybody please tell me the best way of doing this?would I have to go from new orleans to a different delta town and then take a local transport bus to clarksdale?if anybody answering this question could give me some info of a similar service that can get me from clarksdale to memphis that would also be extremely helpful.thanks, Eliot.

Greyhound bus can get you from New Orleans to Clarksdale, MS and then to Memphis. The bus makes multiple stops between N.O. and Clarksdale, and you apparently have to backtrack to somewhere like Vicksburg to get from Clarksdale to Memphis.www.greyhound.com
