The majority of the Voodoo tours in the city are offered by those who are either non-initiates, or those who do not have the lineage to support their understanding and service to the religion. This is the only Voodoo/Vodou tour offered in New Orleans that is lead by a High Priestess of Louisiana Plantation Vodou. Malika/Osheyo Amanzi has additional initiations as an Isefa and Olorisa. Her bloodline can be traced back to the coast of Virgina and the Carolinas, home of the Gullah-Geechee who have their own West African-based religions, as well as Nigeria and Kenya.
