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.

It’s okay. Interesting to learn some history of the parade “business” and see some of the floats/props in person but feels a bit over-priced considering you’re just touring a working warehouse and not something created or curated for the tour. Just a for-profit business making some additional revenue. The tour guide was good but nothing specialized like a historian guiding a tour. The transportation on their shuttle is also okay but we waited almost 30 minutes after calling. Feels more like a $10 tour considering we probably had 40-50 people in our group.

Cool I guess. Tour guide was great! Not sure if it was worth the $22 per adult in our group.. Not to mention the free shuttle refused to pick us up after we had explored downtown despite the website and paper inside the building stating it would be able to pick us back up to take us back to mardi gras world. Super unfortunate as the man we spoke to on the phone was clearly confused and didn’t understand the question. My tip- train your employees a bit better when on the phone with people.
