St. Louis Cemetery #1, New Orleans’ oldest, continuously operated above ground Catholic cemetery is the highlight of our 3-in-1 walking tour.

You will get all of this and more on this French Quarter, Cemetery and Voodoo Walking Tour.

PLEASE NOTE: St. Louis Cemetery #1 is still closed to the public due to systemic cemetery closures by the Archdiocese of New Orleans. We do not enter St. Louis #1 on this tour.

As the tour heads toward the cemetery, unique facts regarding New Orleans customs, traditions, architecture and superstitions will be discussed. A brief break at the Basin Street Visitor’s Center will give you a chance to catch your breath and digest the wealth of information you learned the first half of your tour.

Continuing on, you will delve into the deep history of Voodoo and then conclude the tour at Congo Square, located in picturesque Louis Armstrong Park.
