Saint Louis Cemetery Tour

At the scheduled time, we'll meet up on Basin Street to begin our tour of the nearby St. Louis Cemetery. Immediately, you'll discover why this is such a special location.

Once inside, we'll observe the endless rows of tombs and graves, a scene far removed from the normally well-ordered North American cemeteries. The chaos of the St. Louis Cemetery, like New Orleans itself, seems taken from a different continent and era.

During the guided tour, you'll see the tombs of some famous and infamous characters from the city's history. One of the most feared figures of New Orleans, Marie Laveau, rests here. Hearing the story of this voodoo queen will surely intrigue you. Additionally, Nicolas Cage's tomb is here, featuring a pyramid-shaped mausoleum he built as his final resting place - your guide will provide all the details on the day of your tour.

Our tour, where every tomb has a story to tell, will conclude after 45 minutes packed with the amazing history of New Orleans.
