Saint Louis Cemetery and Gris-Gris Walking Tour

Discover fascinating burial practices and learn about the evolution of voodoo on this tour


Overview

Explore the site of the classic movie ‘Easy Rider,’ and learn about the background of the famous and infamous people who are buried there. Bodies were placed in aboveground burials because of the shallow water table, in family tombs or long rows.

Make a wish or cast a spell at the tomb of Marie Laveau - the Voodoo Queen of New Orleans - and discover how she was able to be in two places at once. Find out what ‘Gris-Gris’ means and discover the mysterious ingredients in your souvenir Gris-Gris bag.
