Overview

As culture-bearers for the city of New Orleans, all of our guides are actively involved in participating and/or performing in various productions and venues that showcase our artistic preservation of Louisiana BBIPOC heritage. We have a unique perspective that goes deeper than what can be found in books (though we’re thorough researchers as well), and we look forward to sharing the rich and blended cultures that make up New Orleans.
