I went there during Mardi Gras and I really enjoyed it. There are parades, good music and entertainment and friendly people. However, what I recommend is to be careful with some boys when they talk to you because even if they seems friendly and harmless - this includes also people who could pass for your older brother since they may be 10-15 years older than you - their intentions are not always genuine and maybe they’re not just looking to be just friends with a tourist or foreigner because of interest in their culture. At the same time, without considering this subgroup of humans, people are really warm and nice.
