Very informative and well versed in the history of Voodoo, the practitioners, the different gods/Loa and origins. There is also a gift shop with various charms and goods you can buy for yourself or loved ones.

Very cool small place but lots of interesting stuff. 👍🏻

I loved this experience. It has only 2 rooms and a hallway but it is PACKED with content. There are altars, artifacts, and plenty of explanatory posters so all levels of voodoo appreciators are “in the know. “ This museum is built of love and the mere $10 a person for entry is more than worth it! Also— ethics. This museum has a true reverence for the practice and history of voodoo and you can feel it in the room. They’re not mass producing anything in the shop to attract patrons. This is all a labor of love to them. Really beautiful to see that gift to the community of New Orleans!

Great little museum with a lot packed into two rooms. The AC wasnt working so it was very hot and humid so we couldnt stay long but the owner gave us a discount on admission because of it. Very informative and beautiful artifacts.

Wonderful experience about the very unique history of New Orleans voodoo. A self guided tour with enough artifacts and information to show how distinct voodoo is to New Orleans, especially voodoo dolls. Highly recommended for those that want to know more.

Not a very big setting. But the information is there, the things that you never knew about voodoo is amazing. Its $10 person, but if your the type of person to want to learn the history and have a fascination for voodoo, this is a very good, informative location.

Its ok, is interesting but It doesnt worth 10 USD per person. Theres only 2 small rooms filled with lots of Voodoo items.

Great history and informational loved environment and great price

It was a nice little exhibit, not big enough for a full museum. There was some damage from a fire from gas explosion because of the hurricane so the whole collection wasn’t out for display. Admission was free because of that. I think it’s normally 8 dollars. There wasn’t a whole lot of detailed information, however, the masks and sculptures have a wonderful ominous feel. It was a great way to spend maybe 15-30 minutes. I’d pass on the gift shop and find some other spooky stuff at one of the many other art shops down the street and around the corner.

Cool and informative little museum. Several altars with offerings.

Super tiny museum. Make sure you go and reserve an entry time a couple hours beforehand on weekends. There’s a decent amount of information, but there is almost more about the founder (think eccentric white guy) than about voodooism itself.

Very small but jam packed with voodoo artifacts and history. Worth swinging by if youre in the area!

I enjoyed the museum, it was neat and informative. Our tour guide Nate made the experience 10x enjoyable, showed us some hot spots and interesting facts.

Excellent experience! The hostesses was amazing. Gave life to the experience, and welcomed us all. The museum itself is small, but is very educational. Has wonderful artifacts. Right in the heart of the French quarter.

Ok while this place is only two rooms, if youre a reader, theres enough to keep you busy for about half an hour to an hour.This museum is one of a kind and thats partially why I visited. Inside youre transported to a different world thats often misunderstood. Unless youre a voodoo expert, youre likely to have many misconceptions about the religion and culture surrounding voodoo (including myself). I highly recommend this museum as a place to educate ones self on voodoo and to stop looking at it like its all dark magic or whatever. Its just like any other religion (plus or minus some very interesting tidbits 👀).Go check it out!

We really liked this stop, though there wasnt all that much to it. Fascinating stuff, wish there was more!

Cool little voo doo museum, but not very big.

Fantastic place full of great voodoo history! A must see if youre looking for something authentic.

While there are tons of small voodoo goods in that place, it’s really hard to consider it’s a museum - feels like that word was putted there for attraction. It’s literally 2 rooms and you can finish it off in as little as 10-15 minutes. More than 5 people will make this place too congested . I’m not too disappointed because price was 10$ per ticket - so it’s not too big of a deal...

It was okay...something to do if youre bored...not with $10 for something you can see in 10 minutes. Basically they turn you loose for a self guided walk in two or three small rooms which are cram packed with voodoo artifacts with no real background information on them other than this is a voodoo idol type descriptions. When I think of the word museum I think there is going to be historical background involved and there doesnt seem to be much included.

10$ per person... 2 small rooms... some very unique stuff.. a little high for the fee...

This is a cool little place, and my daughter really enjoyed it. She said the altars were cool. Dont think it was worth $10, but if youre in to the history definitely take a look. The lady working was super nice.

A little overrated to be honest. The museum is 2 small rooms, a long hallway and a gift shop. Not that much to see.

So, first of all, it was my first time to New Orleans and I was looking to see the culture of the city. This Voodoo museum was personable and well informed. Mr. Natescott was very welcoming and gave us (our group) a little lesson in the practice of Voodoo and the relics that resigned in the museum. The treat was getting a small tour of the city through our tour guide Bob. This man is extremely passionate about the landmarks and was so eager to share what he knew. Super friendly and welcoming people. I look forward to another visit in the future!

It was a nice little place to visit to get some history about voodoo. Visiting from SC, but grew up in Ohio, we didnt have any knowledge of it before we came.

Very cool. Nice exhibits and well worth stopping in. My 4 year old loved it. They allow pictures too which not a lot of the other places around do. Air conditioned. Its small but dense. Lots of interesting things on display

Wish I wouldve read the reviews before I went. The place is literally only two rooms. Feels like a waste of money to pay up look in two rooms and leave. The rooms are interesting and have things to read but we were done in like 15 mins tops. Wish there was more to it. Like a video about the history or something.

$7 admission! Very interesting place! If you are into voodoo check this place out! The people running it are really nice! Theres a little gift shop as you enter. I will warn you; if you are claustrophobic dont go in. Its small and filled with voodoo artifacts and of course dusty! Very cramped! But still a must see! I loved it!

Neat place. Very small, but I learned more about voodoo in the short time we were here than I have my entire life. Very interesting stuff.

Fun experience but nothing to rave about. It was fun to walk through and interesting enough. Worth a visit if you have some free time to wander around. They do allow you to take pictures which is nice since most other places wont allow it.

An interesting museum with a lot of history behind voodoo, and helps with wide spread misconceptions. It is very small, a hallways and 2 rooms entering through a small gift shop, but the space is absolutely packed with information, artifacts and sculptures. If you are interested in the background of voodoo, I would say its worth the $10 admission fee.

This place was really neat. Be sure to bring cash to leave here. I believe its supposed to symbolize an offering for your wishes you make there. I learned new things and some things will creep you out a bit. Definitely worth visiting for a tourist.

Fascinating small museum - interesting to see and read some of the history of vudu and its influence in Louisiana. Welcoming staff as well, would recommend to anyone visiting New Orleans!

Simple museum with many alters demonstrating the practice of Voodoo Hoodoo and other rights.I found it interesting. Some good images as well.It’s not huge however it’s a well curated collection.

Cristi was our tour guide and she was fun and enthusiastic. Lots of fun facts about the French Quarter and New Orleans. Definitely worth taking the tour even my teenage girls loved it. The tour got them to start researching some of the topics on their own which in my book deserves 5 stars on its own. Thank you Cristi!

Very small space but so much is packed into it. I felt like I learned a bit while going through it. It was very interesting.

Pretty awesome piece of history.

I enjoyed walking through this little museum, its not large, but the rooms are packed full of information! The experience was quite fun and I really enjoyed learning more about voodoo from someone who actually practices it. Its such a beautiful and positive culture! Thanks for sharing it with us! 💞🥰

It was very interesting but small. I guess that’s why it’s only 10 a person but I expected more than two rooms. You can definitely feel the energy held within the place though so be respectful.

Absolutely LOVED this place. Wonderful woman that takes money and gives you a guide will explain anything you need explained. Shes a voodoo practitioner, knowledgeable, and personable. She spent time explaining things to my oldest daughter. She wanted to visit this place badly, and the lady there directed her on which candle to get for what she needed. My oldest is still talking about how much she loved her. The inside of the museum is small but covered in items with detailed explanations as to what they are. The painting of Marie Lueveax is incredible. Interestingly enough you are allowed to take all the photos you want, but many of mine did not come out and were incredibly blurred. I did not have this problem anywhere else and feel perhaps there is a message from the spirit world that I need to receive. We felt this place was well worth the minimal admission cost, and will return next we visit NOLA.

Very cool exhibit. Not sure on the authenticity but was very interesting and had a lot of history. Great way to fill an hour of your day! They allow all the pictures you want to take.

If you like a room of nothing with a hammy atmosphere this will be perfect for you

Barely any referral to the Haitian history of New Orleans voodoo. Small, with a wall dedicated mostly to dead white voodoo practitioners. A few cool artifacts but not worth a $10 admission fee

For 10 dollars you get your moneys worth. Its not alot to it but is different then other shops.

We enjoyed our time in this museum. Yes, it is small, but there is a wealth of information and things to see inside! Definitely worth it!!

We would have loved to tour this museum. But the lady running the counter was on the phone. We waited a while (it seemed like maybe her credit card reader or something was down and she was trying to fix it). After 10 minutes or so of not even being acknowledged, we chose to leave (as did at least 3 other couples I saw). I hope she got it fixed, and I understand the frustration, but had she at least acknowledged us with an Ill be right with you, we would have been content to wait.**UPDATE: Added 2 stars since we were able to get in on our most recent trip. Some of the exhibits were interesting. The place in general was very cluttered and somewhat chaotic, with no real organization for the pieces. The front hall where you enter was very narrow, and difficult to get in and out of if people were stopped to look at the plaques and pictures on the wall. I do love that they let you take pictures inside, and the lady at the front desk this time was very nice and greeted us immediately. If youre interested in the voodoo history of the area, its worth the price of admission to go in and have a look, but dont expect to be blown away.

The place is soo small, we went on the smithsonian museum day and it was full of people and felt Claustrophobic, the lady at the front entrance was not friendly at all and was very rude. The place had history of voodoo but did not get a chance to look with a lot of crowd. Need to visit during off hours to actually be able to see something there.

Just off the beaten path of Bourbon Street its a nice glimpse into New Orleans religious history and culture.

Tiny museum, but really rich in culture

Real human skulls & Zombie whips! Informative staff & exhibits. So fun making my wish on the stump!

The word museum is a little misleading here. Its super small and definitely not wheelchair accessible. You get really cozy with the strangers there visiting. There is a decent amount of voodoo history information however its difficult to take it all in because your packed in like sardines. Kinda creepy but cool. 1 room just has altars, most of the information is in a hallway only wide enough for one person. The other room has random voodoo stuff in it. If youve got a free 30 minutes with nothing else to do its worth the squeeze

Even though this was a smaller Museum, this Museum was very interesting with a lot of facts. It was very interesting seeing how many people went through and gave gifts to the spirits, and you can read all about what the spirit was and what each item masks were artifact was used for. Im not one to believe in this stuff, but it was very interesting and I would go back again. For $7, you need to see this.

I loved everything inside the building! The items featured the ranged from art that was created for the museum to old remnants from voodoo alters long gone. I want according there to be so much information posted around the place but I found it very informational and interesting. Only downside was that it was very crowded and people were often shoulder to shoulder trying to read the same small pages. I felt a little rushed by just patrons so I ended up taking pictures of the plaques so I could read everything later. The owner was great, she welcomed everyone in and didnt mind answering questions or sharing a funny story.

Small and cramped, but definitely worth the visit. A lot of history packed into a tiny place. Lots of artifacts from voodoo long ago. Cinnamon Black, one of the Voodoo priestesses their is very knowledgeable and always willing to help and answer questions. We bought a Voodoo doll and she even performed a Voodoo ritual on it for us for no extra charge! Love this place and will always visit it when we are in NOLA.

The area is pretty tiny and the sign is somewhat deceiving as it looks as if it is pointing you to across the street and the sign light was out when we arrived. The museum is tiny but packed with history.

Lots of different items to look at. A small brochure as your guide. Two rooms and a small hallway that exhibited relics from the past. Can be a bit cramped inside with the Overflow of people. Other than that, small interesting Museum to look at. $7 cover charge.

Small, unique, informative.

It is interesting. But definitely too smallIt is literally two little rooms. Definitely not worth $10

I really enjoyed going to tgis Museum. The lady that runs the museum was really helpful in getting us prepared for the history of Voodoo and the voodoo Queen Marie L. I was able to go with my sister and daughter, dad and nephew. I loved everything about the place.

The museum was a bit small, it almost feels like your stepping on everybody, but not too bad at all. As first time visitors, my girlfriend and I enjoyed the artifacts and information. Btw I have to say the cashier was so funny, I wish I could have gotten her name, very down to earth and hilarious, made me and my girlfriend continuously laugh.*Tips for my fellow Googlers*Parking is a bit difficult$8.00 chargeVery small placeSmall shopping collection but worth itcash/ credit/debit accepted!!!Keep your kids close as things can be knocked over.Enjoy the Museum

Was a great experience. We were able to walk through without problems. The facilitator was very nice and helped our differently abled companion who needed some extra support. Was great for her as she felt special

I asked some people out the front if it was worthwhile visiting and they were on the fence about whether it was worth it. After visiting I would say not. Its $7 per person to enter what is basically a hallway and 2 small rooms. The rooms are filled with dusty, dirty displays and shrines. There are limited description tags. Some of the info is repeated multiple times. Skip this one!

Was so much more authentic and had relaxed atmosphere. Really enjoyed it, and bought several items.

RUDE! Very rude and they make up stories about regular items to get people to buy them? So weird! Do not recommend.

Loaded with interesting artifacts.Very welcoming.Some of the items for sale feel more authentic than slot of of FQ shops.Truly pleased and blessed to have stopped in.

Creepy and filled with random stuffs! Honestly, I am not so sure how legitimate this place is. I didn’t get the museum vibe but more of a I just got scammed vibe. There were a lot of random stuffs like pictures and items that didn’t belong. I felt like there were many altars and people just left random things on the altars. The music and the look of the place were pretty creepy as well. Definitely not worth the money to go through it, but if it is a one dollar admission or free then why not?

I enjoyed this place. Its very small, only a few rooms but its definitely worth the $5 to check out. Its a quick visit. I spent out 30 minutes here.

Small but informative. The museum has a decent selection of voodoo artifacts and placards explaining their origin and significance. It is however two rooms and a hallway connecting them.

Two rooms and a hallway are packed with a variety of voodoo objects. There is a lot of information to read on the walls and on the papers they give you to carry as you tour the museum. The small gift shop, which you can visit without paying to enter the museum, has a small assortment of books and trinkets to buy.The small size and exceptionally cramped quarters when touring the museum are the reason for the three star raiting.

We are visiting New Orleans for the first time and we visited the New Orleans voodoo museum... a must do!!! Nate and bob were great!!! Thanks!

We all had a wonderful time learning about the city.

Is very informative and what you expect a Voodoo museum to be but it was small. It was hard to get in and out of it. It is not an obvious place, like you have to look for it to.find it. We didnt spend more then 40 minutes in it and we read most of everything so plan to visit it between attractions.

Its amazing to see how New Orleans Mardi Gras comes together from the biggest and best in the game. Theres a 14 minute 19 second video. You get all the mechanics of producing this parade from design to modeling to construction to transportation. These folks also create figures were familiar with like McGruff the crime dog, Smokey the bear and the Chick-fil-a cows! This is an active space. The floats for Orpheus 2020 are on display currently and are being worked on! The tour kicks off with King cake just like the Mardi Gras season. Photography is allowed, just no flash. Free shuttle service to the French quarter or Canal street. Air conditioned.

Its 3 rooms and a hallway chalk full of all types of items dealing with Zombie, Voodoo, and the dead. This place is a small, ADHD paradise! So much stuff everywhere. So many items that it is just spilling into the floor. This really could be a very neat museum dealing with a fascinating subject matter. Instead I left after the very short stroll through the museum, and the first thing I asked my friends is, when does the tour start? If you are claustrophobic, then this probably isnt the museum for you. If you try to fit more than five people in this place to take the tour at the same time, it feels crowded. 10 people at a time, and you will be climbing the walls to get out of there. I still really like the place because I am fascinated with the subject matter, but dang, how about putting a little bit of money into some show cases to protect your stuff. Who do the Voodoo that you do!

Today it was $5 dollars to get in day. So, we paid our $5 bucks and checked out the Voodoo Museum. It is two rooms of curios, voodoo dolls and some interesting history. I wish this place had a bigger space to display all of its curios, old paintings, altars and dolls, because this part of Afro-Carribiean culture is somewhat lost in the history books. Pay your respects and dont make fun of anything as this was and still is a practiced religion. Anyway, its fun and worth the stop.

Richard my tour guide was awesome very informative funny and had great energy along the way will be back

I dont really see this a museum per say. I think that it is neat that you can see some voodoo items here but I feel like it is more like a cash grab for tourist I would say it was decent but there are many better museums in New Orleans.

The best part of our trip, hands down. The price to do the self guided tour through the museum was only $5 and you could take pictures. It was very informative, very authentic and very unique. We stayed a while and enjoyed it from beginning to end.

Interesting place but a little messy. Had been better if there were less descriptions around all exhibits than the A4 paper you get. I liked the mysterious surroundings of the museum.

If you like things strange and unusual you should definitely go check this museum out. Very informative and very respectful to the religion. Definitely recommend!

Deeply educational and fascinating. Woman at the front desk is incredibly knowledgeable. They accept cash/card, and offer two kinda of tours. 1- in house, under 10 bucks and self guided. 2- trip to cemetary. guided, around 25 dollars.If you want to know the difference between voodoo and hoodoo, youll have to take the guided tour!

Pretty cool place. New Orleans Nate was our guide and he was great. He was very informative and went over all stories in great detail. Learnt a lot from him. His recommendation for local gumbo was one of the best we had on this trip.

Its a tiny place packed full of interesting photographs, paintings, sculptures, instruments, and other artifacts. Youll definitely learn something while youre there.

Interesting place to learn a little about Voodoo and its history. It is a very small place that has a ton of stuff jammed into two tiny rooms. At $7 a person it feels a bit expensive for what it is. However, I learned some interesting things about voodoo.

Small but for the price its worth it. Just a couple of rooms of items to look at but the rooms are packed to the brim with alters and so much background and history to learn from. I learned so much while there!

Probably should have set my expectation lower. This museum is only two small rooms but interesting stuff. $5 to get in and you could probably read and see all stuff within 30 mins so planning accordingly!

I visited the museum in November during my trip to New Orleans. It is a small place but full of information and artifacts related to Voo Doo. There basically two room and a smalls hallway. The room at the end of the hallway is full of altars and information about who the altars are dedicated to. The next room is dedicated to dolls, ceremony, and rituals. I would definitely return

Well air-conditioned space filled with curiosities and gifts left by visitors. I didn’t learn much, but would like to think the owners would be more informative if the place weren’t so crowded. It’s $7 to shuffle through two tiny rooms. There are some beautiful portraits of Marie Laveau. You might want to do some research beforehand, as the ink on the printouts they gave us was faded and it can be too crowded to read the display notes.

Staff really friendly. Loved the museum and the lore. We were wanting to go to a voodoo museum while we were here. Im glad to have gone to this one

This place was informative and interesting. The displays were powerful and emotion- invoking. So glad I got to see voodoo from another angle not shown on media outleta.

Small little place if you are into voodoo and its history in New Orleans. Some areas are a little tight if crowded but it wasnt bad and I really enjoyed the voodoo doll of all sorts. The man inside is very informative as well. Doesnt take long to go through with only three or four little rooms but its packed with history.

This a good place if you want to know about the history of this place and also how Vudoo contributes a major part to this history. The lady at the front desk was really nice and explained well about the whole thing. The museum is really small and no advance booking is required. They give you a small paper to write your wish in and keep it in the wooden tree.

Interesting place. Lots of information, but it was a bit crowded.

Interesting place to visit but doesnt have a lot to see. Its basically 2 rooms connected by a short hallway. Not a must see but if you have time its a nice little stop.

Very small, but worth it for the price!!! Chock full of of information and altars to honor goddesses, gods, saints, erzulies, etc. Had a lot of fun learning! Would definitely recommend for the experience.

Miss Cinnamon Black was beyond expectations! She made the experience more personal, educational and fun. She even so kindly took this fun picture with us. I would highly recommend visiting her and this museum. Well worth it!

Certainly eerie and delivers authentic voodoo decor (not cheesy like the main drag souvenir shops) but it is very small with no explanation outside of hard to read plaques and time worn prints. If the price of admission werent so high, I wouldnt expect so much but even a laminated/bound visual guide would go a looooong way. I just wanted more education...go, bring your kids, just dont expect too much.

Its $5 per adult to enter the museum which really is just 2 rooms filled with various voodoo altars. If you have the patience to read then theres a plethora of voodoo information to be learned here. A bit of warning though, air can be a bit heavy here as ventilation is almost none existent. I felt faint while here so I couldnt really take my time inside the tight enclosed museum. Also not recommended for anyone with claustrophobia. Other than that its a great quick stop to get your fix of voodoo history when in NOLA.

We did the Voodoo tour with Nat, and he was awesome! He’s got a great, easy going personality and was very knowledgeable. He went into detail with the artifacts of the museum, and did a good job explaining the history of the surrounding buildings in the area.

The New Orleans Historic Voodoo Museum is indeed unique. A gentleman who works there did provide an optional tour and educational information regarding the history, meanings, and prominent figures in the voodoo culture.I enjoyed the many captions near the photos and artifacts to read. Interesting information.Although the money everywhere poses as its ritual purpose, it threw off the museum vibe and displays for me.I wouldnt visit again, but it is a fair one time place to visit if you are curious about voodoo.
