Denise leading afro-creole history and culture new orleans tour guide congo square

A Spiritual Journey through Afro Creole History, Voodoo, and Music

Join Our Sacred Stories for a one -of- a kind walking tour experience.  Our Spiritual Walk starts with an Ancestor Blessing and gives you an inside look at the history, traditions, and spirituality of this unique and living culture.  Our tour goes from Slavery to Freedom, Jazz to Jambalaya, and Congo Square to Gris Gris. This tour is a celebration of the accomplishments of the Afro-Creoles of New Orleans and their impact on the world.

Expect the inside story of New Orleans’ Voodoo roots, rites, and rituals; our Hoodoo, Voodoo, Mojo & Magic, including the story of Marie Laveau, the most powerful Voodoo Priestess New Orleans has ever known. Learn all about dancing in a Second line and how it spread throughout the world, as well as the spectacular Mardi Gras Indians and other Black masking traditions like the Baby Dolls.  Our cultural roots are Indigenous, French, Spanish and African and every one of these groups forges the identity of this beloved city.
