Company proposing a visit to discover the workshops of manufacture of the floats of the city.

Visit the creative workshops of the city's largest carnival float manufacturing company. Almost all Mardi Gras floats are built by this company since 1947. The visit allows you to discover the warehouses where some of the oldest pieces are stored, to follow the history and the manufacture of the floats. The dozens and dozens of colorful figurines on display will give you an idea of what Mardi Gras madness is like for the locals. Note that a free shuttle service is offered to get there.

We had such a wonderful time at Mardi Gras world! I am a local, from New Orleans and I'm a tour guide here, so when I tell you Sean, our guide was phenomenal, I really mean it! What a great time and I learned so much!

Fun to see how they make the pieces, and view a bunch of past ones.

Beware of the shuttle!! Free shuttle will pick you up at 10 different locations according to their website, however nowhere does it tell you that it will only drop you off at 1 location if your tour ends after 4 pm. Had a further walk with 2 young kids instead of being dropped off at our hotel we were picked up from. Very rude driver - he acted very annoyed when I told him our stop was somewhere else and he said this is the only place he goes to despite us getting picked up at our hotel. He got on a radio and told someone make sure you tell people I only go to one stop, in front of us.

Kids loved the props but really not worth the admission price and terrible service to offer a free shuttle there but on your own on the way back.

Très belle activité, très intéressant de savoir comment se fait tout ce qui concerne les parades du Mardi Gras.
