The majority of the Voodoo tours in the city are offered by those who are either non-initiates, or those who do not have the lineage to support their understanding and service to the religion. This is the only Voodoo/Vodou tour offered in New Orleans that is lead by a High Priestess of Louisiana Plantation Vodou. Malika/Osheyo Amanzi has additional initiations as an Isefa and Olorisa. Her bloodline can be traced back to the coast of Virgina and the Carolinas, home of the Gullah-Geechee who have their own West African-based religions, as well as Nigeria and Kenya.

Q&A

Q: Is there a minimum age for this Voodoo tour? I'm thinking of gifting it to my teenage daughter.

A: There isn't a strict age limit for the tour, but it's generally recommended for ages 12 and up due to some of the complex themes discussed. Kids younger than 12 might not really grasp the concepts. If you think your daughter can handle it, go for it! Just make sure she's prepared for some deep discussions about the culture and religion.

Q: What should I wear for the Voodoo Walking Tour? Is it casual or more dressy?

A: Casual is definitely the way to go! It's a walking tour, so comfy shoes are a must. The weather in New Orleans can be humid, so breathable fabrics are a good idea. You might even want to bring an umbrella just in case it rains—it is NOLA after all!

Q: What happens if it rains on the day of the tour? Can we reschedule?

A: If it rains, the tour usually goes on unless there are severe weather warnings. You can always check in with the guide beforehand. If you need to reschedule for whatever reason, they’re usually pretty flexible, just reach out to them directly.

Just did the Nola Voodoo Walking Tour with High Priestess—AMAZING!

I just got back from the Voodoo Walking Tour led by High Priestess Malika, and wow, it was so enlightening! She shared such deep, personal stories about her lineage and the real practices of Vodou. The tour was around two hours long, but I could have listened to her for days! The vibe in New Orleans totally enhances the experience. Highly recommend this as a gift for anyone interested in culture and spirituality!

Thinking about gifting the Voodoo Tour—any thoughts?

Hey y'all! I'm thinking about giving this Voodoo Walking Tour as a gift to my friend who loves New Orleans' history and culture. I’m curious about how the pacing is. Is it suitable for someone who isn't super fit? Trying to gauge if it's a good fit for her. Anyone done it recently?
