A propos de cette activités

Le cimetière n° 1 de cathédrale St Louis est le plus ancien cimetière actif de la Nouvelle-Orléans et le cimetière le plus hanté de la Louisiane. En un seul bloc/À un pâté de maisons, vous trouverez plus de 700 tombeaux et plus de 100 000 morts. Rejoignez-nous pour cette balade de jour amusante et profitez de l’histoire qui se cache derrière les coutumes d’inhumation uniques qui rendent cela possible.
Fondé en 1789 et inscrit au registre national des lieux historiques, St. Louis n° 1 est la plus vieille ville des morts de la Nouvelle-Orléans. Décoré, en ruine et envoûtante, St. Louis n° 1 est étrangement magnifique même pendant la journée. Ce cimetière de La Nouvelle-Orléans est la dernière demeure de la célèbre reine du vaudou Marie Laveau, ainsi que de nombreux autres illustres citoyens de la Nouvelle-Orléans. Aventurez-vous dans les murs bordés de voûte dans ce cimetière historique de la Nouvelle-Orléans avec votre maître conteur et visitez le tombeau des musiciens de la Nouvelle-Orléans et le futur tombeau de Nicolas Cage.
Les cimetières de La Nouvelle-Orléans sont disponibles pour vous uniquement dans le cadre d’une visite de groupe agréée. Le public n’est pas autorisé à entrer dans le cimetière n° 1 de St Louis à moins d’être accompagnés par un guide approuvé par l’Archidiocèse.

Our guide, Lee, was funny, articulate and full of great stories. The tour itself was interesting enough. I think Lee's humor and flair is what made it as good as it was, and not so much the cemetery itself.

Mary J. was an outstanding guide and shared so much about present and historical New Orleans. We had an amazing afternoon learning about cemetery practices and history. Our guide was alert to the needs of our group (it was quite hot that day!) and she was an excellent story-teller. I recommend this tour for everyone who wants to learn about the amazing city of New Orleans!

We did our tour with Ms. Angela who was one of the best guides I have had on various other tours. She was very upbeat, friendly and knowledgeable about the history of the cemetery. She knew how to pace the tour and was great with checking in on everyone ( it was a warm day and the cemetery can get even warmer). Thank you for a great tour!

Great tour and the correct amount of time. Cemetery can get VERY hot if the sun is out and VERY wet when it thunderstorms (which is daily in August) -- be prepared there is minimal shade and no protection during the walking portion of the tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable and provided information about past as well as present politics, religion and social practices. He also talked loud enough to be heard with group of 22. Guides are working for tips -- not on salary.

Lydia, was our tour guide and she was great. She brought us into LaFayette cemetery 1 and had some much information to share. A fascinating place! A total photo op for you photographers out there!

I thoroughly enjoyed this tour. According New city regulations, visitors may only visit with a guide. Very knowledgeable guide and interesting trivia. Was a bit too long for me, but definitely worthwhile.
