You owe it to the mules to do this one! - A really great experience! It was so fun meeting the mules and learning about how the carriage companies safeguard them. The tour through the Marigny was also a great addition. I look forward to doing this tour again

You get to meet the mules up close! - Excellent tour, or really mule meet & greet! Our guide Shannon was great! We started off with some history of the stable and company, then walked around and had the chance to meet and pet the mules, pretty much as many of them as we wanted to meet. They are beautifully cared for and the stable is very cool to see from the working side. We were shown and told about their different carriages, and the harness used by the mules. The tour was very informative and a ton of fun! After we saw everything in the stable we walked around the neighborhood to see and hear more about the area. A little bit of history, a little bit about buildings in the area and a little bit about more local activities that we might like to check out. If you did their carriage tour, this is a great accompaniment.

Must do tour for horse lovers - The tour around the stables along with the history of the company/stables/each mule was incredible. We learned so much all while getting to cuddle some of the cutest mules. Our guide was amazing and very personable. You can tell each person there truly cared for the mules and enjoyed their job. The stable was so clean and mules were very well taken care of.
