  • Cool Tour!

    voodoo was in the air during this tour. It was so exciting learning about something I didn't know much about (except from watching the skeleton key). The bus ride wasn't bad and didn't take long, and I had read the other reviews about how the tour guides were great, and I agree 100%.

  • Cramped on the bus, but still fun

    The bus on the tour was a little cramped I felt, but the tour itself was great! responsible and knowledgeable tour guides, along with fairly spooky scenery made this trip a fun experience overall. The gris-gris bag was a great souvenir, and I want to practice voodoo now!
