When you think of Mardi Gras, you think ‘party in New Orleans’!  Thoughts run through your mind, ‘when is it?’, ‘how do I get there?’, ‘where do I stay?’, ‘how MUCH is it gonna cost?’.

If you want to do something entirely different & save yourself some time finding a hotel in the ideal location near Bourbon St., check out this combo 11-night Mardi Gras-Caribbean cruise from Celebrity Cruises.

This Mardi Gras-Caribbean cruise is one of Celebrity Cruises ‘Signature Event Sailings’.  It has an ideal itinerary with 3 days of island hopping in the Caribbean, a day to rest from sun & salt water before getting crazy in the French Quarter.  We love that the last day in port ends on Fat Tuesday & you can spend the last 2 days at sea recuperating in the Canyon Ranch Spa onboard the ship.
