Mysteries of Voodoo Tour

Magazine Street is where New Orleans actually eats. Six miles of shotgun storefronts, century-old corner spots, and kitchens that have been perfecting the same dishes longer than most cities have had restaurants. This is the Garden District's main artery: colorful, alive, and layered with food culture that runs so deep locals will exchange recipes at the dinner table and then go back to the same place the next morning with their “mom ‘n dem.” If you want to understand this city, you eat here. This three-hour walk takes you through it all. Stroll past the places that have been feeding New Orleans families for generations, behind the stories of the people who built them, and straight to the kind of meal that makes a vacation nap feel earned. No tourist menus. No manufactured atmosphere. Just the real thing. You'll eat at five stops — seven dishes, minimum — and every one was chosen because the food means something here. There's history in every delicious bite! And stories behind them that most visitors never hear, since this tour takes you way beyond gumbo, beignets, and muffulettas. In fact, this tour was specifically designed to feed you dishes that locals love, but most visitors would never think to order them on their own. Your guide handles everything. The reservations, the introductions, the bill. You show up curious and leave knowing New Orleans the way a local does — through what it eats, how it cooks, and why it matters. To enhance your experience, we’ll even include a local beer, poured exactly where it belongs. Groups stay small — nine guests maximum — so you're never waiting in a pack or shouting over a crowd. You're just eating, talking, and working your way through one of the best streets in one of the best food cities in the world. This New Orleans food tour walk covers 1/2 mile and will be held rain or shine. This tour does not accommodate vegan, low or sugar-free, gluten-free, kosher, or reduced-sodium dietary restrictions. This tour may not be a good fit for diets that prohibit both seafood and pork, since many dishes contain one or the other. A minimum of 2 people are required for this tour to run (may be booked separately).

New Orleans has always been a food city. But the version most visitors experience is a fraction of the story. This is the rest of it. NO Secrets takes you Uptown, into the Audubon neighborhood, where the restaurants are quieter, the menus are more deliberate, and the locals actually book reservations. Over three hours, you'll move through a progressive dinner at three celebrated restaurants, with multiple dishes at every stop, that begins with cocktails at the bar and ends at one of the most respected tables in the city. Seven guests maximum. Twenty-one and older. Three hours in a part of New Orleans most visitors fly home without ever finding.

New Orleans didn't invent drinking…but it did invent doing it better! The Sazerac, the Ramos Gin Fizz, and the Grasshopper weren't accidents. They were born in the bars, parlors, and back rooms of the French Quarter by people who believed a great drink deserved a great story. This is a small-group walking tour through the heart of one of the world's great drinking cities. You'll visit some of the oldest and most storied bars in the country, taste cocktails that defined American drinking culture, and hear the real history behind what's in your glass. Not the rehearsed version, the actual one. Your guide keeps the group small, just nine guests maximum, so you're never shouting over a crowd, never rushed, and never part of a pack. Drinks aren't included in the tour price, and that's by design: whether you want to share a round with friends, order your own, or simply soak it all in, the choice is entirely yours. By the time the evening ends, you won't just know what you drank. You'll know why it matters.

New Orleans has 300 years of history packed into a few square miles — and not all of it rests easy. This two-hour walking tour through the French Quarter pulls back the curtain on the real stories behind the city's most famous legends. We're talking primary sources, newspaper accounts, and documented history…not campfire stories dressed up for tourists. You'll trace the footsteps of Delphine Lalaurie, whose Royal Street mansion became the site of one of the most shocking crimes in American history. You'll hear the truth about the Casket Girls and the vampiric legends tied to the Old Ursuline Convent. You'll visit a fine-dining restaurant where guests and staff alike report encounters that can't quite be explained. And that’s just the start. New Orleans has earned its reputation as the most haunted city in America. Yellow fever, hurricanes, duels, fires, slavery — the city absorbed centuries of trauma, and some of it never left. This tour is where history and the unexplained meet, explored through the eyes of guides who know the difference between a ghost story and the truth.

The French Quarter is one of the most photographed neighborhoods in America. It's also one of the most misunderstood. This isn't a walk through the highlights reel. It's a small-group morning tour (nine guests maximum) that takes you beyond the surface of the Quarter's most iconic streets and into the stories that don't make it onto the plaques. You'll learn why the French Quarter isn't actually very French, what really happened behind the closed doors of the city's most powerful families, and how the neighborhood survived fires, floods, epidemics, and economic collapse to become what it is today. Your guide lovingly calls this city home. They know the stories locals tell…the ones that got edited out of the official version. By the time the tour ends, you'll see the Quarter differently. And once you do, you can't unsee it.
