Great intro to Mobile
What a fun introduction to Mobile Mardi Gras, the city where it all began! We had a wonderful guide who was very knowledgeable about the celebration and planning that goes with it. We started in an area with floats and moved through an incredible collection of costumes. Jaw dropping beautiful gowns and trains. It was so fun to learn about everything that goes into this huge city celebration. Based on this single experience, we want to spend a week in Mobile. The architecture of the museum home is most interesting as are those in the other 6 historic districts!! My only regret...I didn't buy enough memorabilia, especially since Mardi Gras is two weeks away.

Wonderful Experience
Amazing tour, we had no idea of all that surrounds Mobile Mardi Gras. This museum showcases the history and pomp of Mobile Mardi Gras from the beginning to the present day. If you go on a Saturday and Craig Roberts is there offering free guided tours-definitely do it! He did an amazing job explaining all the exhibits along with stories and trivia. He did such a great job, the next time we're in Mobile we want to sign up for one of his guided historical tours of Mobile.
