Voodoo Queen Walking Tour

We unintentionally ended up on a private tour, and we couldn’t have been happier about it! Gomez was our guide, and he was wonderful. He was extremely knowledgeable and clearly passionate about what he does. It never felt like he was just doing a job, he genuinely enjoys sharing his knowledge and helping people understand the history and traditions. We quickly realized that much of what we thought we knew about voodoo was either incomplete or simply wrong. Gomez did an amazing job explaining the history, beliefs, and traditions in a way that was interesting, respectful, and easy to understand. We left with a much better understanding and appreciation of voodoo, along with a genuine interest in learning more. We would absolutely recommend this tour, especially if you’re lucky enough to have Gomez as your guide!

This was an exceptional experience. We came in with very little knowledge on both New Orleans history and the origins of Voodoo. We gained so much information and it has left us wanting to take an even deeper dive into both!!

Today we experienced the Voodoo Queen Tour in New Orleans, and our tour guide, Gomez, was truly exceptional. He is, without question, the best tour guide I have ever had on any tour. His knowledge of New Orleans history, Marie Laveau, the stories of enslaved people, and so much more was remarkable. Every stop on the tour was enriched by his detailed narration and deep understanding of the city’s past. One of my favorite moments was standing in Congo Square. I had studied this place before, but hearing Gomez explain its history brought everything to life in a way that was powerful, moving, and unforgettable. He shared everything I learned in school—and even more. His storytelling is captivating, respectful, and full of passion. To end the tour, we formed a line band and marched, danced, clapped, and followed one another while Gomez sang. It was joyful, energetic, and so much fun—and yes, he has a wonderful voice too. If you are visiting New Orleans, take this tour and request Gomez. He deserves 10 stars. When I return to N.O., I will absolutely take this tour again and request him—and only him. Gomez, thank you for teaching us so much today. We truly loved you and everything you shared. You made this experience unforgettable.

Voodoo tour and so much more! DJ is a knowledgeable and excellent guide. We learned what voodoo is and it influence on NOLA We learned true history of Marie Laveau. Got to see several interesting sites and visit an authentic voodoo shop

DJ was great, not only was he extremely friendly but he was very knowledgeable. My 1st visit to Nola and I have been trying to have as many interesting tours and experiences as I can. I am glad he was a part of it. If we makee another trip.we will happily book another one of his tours.
