Viator VIP: 4-Day Ultimate Mardi Gras Experience

Experience the thrill of New Orleans’ Mardi Gras in comfort and style with this 4-day Viator VIP package that includes a gourmet buffet, open bars and access to private viewing areas for the parade. Marvel at parades from above the crowded streets; enjoy access to a VIP lounge with food and drinks during the Bacchus parade; and march in a Mardi Gras parade through the French Quarter before heading up to a large private Bourbon Street balcony for a daylong party. Each day is packed with perks in this Viator exclusive that can’t be booked anywhere else!

This 4-day package is the perfect way to get the most out of your Mardi Gras experience. With access to elevated viewing stands, you'll avoid the madness of the crowds, enjoy up-close views of the best parades and always have a restroom nearby.
