Join us for a walking tour of New Orleans’ most historic neighborhood, the French Quarter. See the “Vieux Carré” through the eyes of the Louisiana Creoles who originally called it home. Louisiana is unique amongst the various regions of the U.S. The intriguing tales of notable creoles (of West African, Native American and European origin) will illuminate the development of the culture that distinguishes Louisiana from the rest of the American south. This tour is an exploration of old Louisiana, the Louisiana that gave birth to Jazz and Zydeco, to gumbo and jambalaya. Louisiana is technically a southern American state, but culturally Louisiana has always been the northernmost part of the Caribbean. (This tour includes a tour of the courtyard of a beautiful antebellum French Quarter residence and normally of St. Louis Cemetery No. 1, though the cemetery is currently closed due to the coronavirus pandemic.)

Which is spookier: the allegedly haunted mausoleum of New Orleans' infamous voodoo queen, or an eerie pyramid that will one day contain the skeleton of Nicolas Cage? Find out for yourself with a guided tour of the streets on all sides of St. Louis Cemetery No.1 and No. 2! With a trusty guide by your side, you'll be spirited from the famous French Quarter, and taken as close as you can get to two historic New Orleans graveyards without going inside. Hear the goosebump-inducing stories of unexplained occurrences, and try not to fall behind...
