Mardi Gras magic in the making!
Loved getting a behind-the-scenes look at the float-building process—so much color and creativity. Our tour guide was fantastic: engaging, knowledgeable, and fun. It’s a great stop for families or anyone curious about New Orleans culture. Just a heads-up: the warehouse isn’t air-conditioned, so plan for a cooler day to stay comfortable.

This was amazing! We learned more than we imagined. Could not believe everything that goes into making these huge floats. Free shuttle pick ups are great help! Thank you for the slice of king cake also! Really enjoyed the tour!

Such a fun and unique history to the New Orleans area! We really enjoyed the tour, the video about Mardi Gras, and seeing the props and floats! Our tour guide did a great job answering questions to the best of her ability and sharing much about the warehouse!
