The bus eases away from Tchoupitoulas with a hum of air conditioning and a city that smells of coffee, river mud, and sugar. In one elongated evening the tour stitches together New Orleans’ public pageant and its private rituals: a hands-on mask workshop amid the cathedral of float props at Mardi Gras World, a tasting around polished copper stills at Seven Three Distilling, and a final private dinner with burlesque that turns the ordinary into performance.
